(bright upbeat music)
- Hey, I'm Mel of Allmade.
I'm gonna be showing you two different videos
using heat transfers.
The first will be using Stahls' Transfer Express,
new ultracolor soft transfers,
and the second will be with a CAD-CUT ultraweed
heat transfer vinyl.
So when I started sending like clothing
I started off screen printing.
It was great, did beautiful prints,
but when a customer asks for something
a little more customized
and then when we were doing our neck labels
we would always use heat transfers.
We started out using a heat press for the neck labels
and then I moved on to just doing some customized names
on the back using a standard heat press.
So Allmade t-shirts
are made out of really high quality components,
recycled polyester which is recycled plastic,
tencel modal and organic cotton.
So you really wanna use a high quality heat transfer
for the super soft shirts.
I really like how the ultracolor soft transfers come.
They come on this 11 and a half by 18 sheet,
which holds almost 90 logos.
This is really great if you're making masks,
which we prefer on Allmasks.
Depending on how many you're ordering,
this can get down to six cents a transfer
up to 14 cents a transfer.
So this is a really great option
if you're doing a small order or a large order.
So we're using the Stahl's Hotronix heat press.
You can just use a standard hot platon for this.
So we're doing this at 300 degrees for 15 seconds.
We're gonna go ahead and preheat our mask
just for a couple of seconds
and then you can go ahead and take your transfer,
lay it right down in the center here.
You're gonna press your hot press down.
When it's done, it'll just pop up for you.
You wanna pull your mask off, set it down
and use this opportunity to move on to your next mask
while this cools down.
So you're gonna pop another one on here.
Just like so productivity goes up
and you start it on your next mask.
So now that our mask is cooled, I'm gonna peel it off.
Looks great.
It's very soft.
So the Allmask is a great fit comparable to other masks.
You just slide it over your face like this.
It's super soft.
Eco-friendly when you breathe through it.
I even give it to my kids
and it has this awesome wire nose piece here
so it can fit really any face
and you shape it the way you want.
And there you go, great looking mask.
Now let's try a t-shirt.
The great thing about the Allmade t-shirts
is that they're now easily available from SanMar.
It's not only that they're made with eco-friendly materials
and they're super soft, like the six recycle bottles
and organic cotton, but they're also made
to be printer and transfer friendly too.
All right,
so we're using the Allmade space black t-shirt here
and this awesome '90s party transfer.
So today we're using
the Stahl's Hotronix fusion shirt press.
We have it set here at 275, 276.
It can be up to 300 for 15 seconds.
So it's always a good idea to preheat your shirts
so that all the fibers are pushed down
when you're ready to put your design on there.
Although Allmade does have really soft,
really smooth tricks.
So a great thing to know about transfers,
is you try to cut them straight
so that you can keep them on the shirt straight.
Try to line it up with the middle.
We do the three fingers mark here, slide it in.
So you're gonna press it
with a medium to firm pressure, press it down.
It'll count down for you.
This press is really awesome
'cause you can just slide it out like this.
This is a cold peel transfer.
So you wanna let it cool for about a minute or so.
So you're gonna wait until it's cold,
start at one corner and you're gonna peel it off.
And there you go.
You got a beautiful, colorful design
that lays very smoothly on the shirt.
So these transfers really, really soft to the touch
and have great stretch.
So if you ever have any problems
where maybe a corner is lifting up,
or you feel like you didn't quite get it good enough
you can only just stick it right back on your heat press,
put your transfer paper back on there
that you just peeled off
and just give it a couple more seconds.
It should peel right up, and then you have it even smooth
on every edge of your transfer.
All right, so there you have it.
The transfer express ultracolor soft transfers.
They work great on masks and t-shirts
but we really like to say they work the best
on Allmade t-shirts.
They're great for decorating hard places like masks
and really just custom orders in general.
The color turned out perfect and super soft.
We're really stoked on how these pair together.
