Gonzo the Face Posted March 16, 2010 Share Posted March 16, 2010 Does anyone know any place that has one of those ironing press machine that will take a transfer and press it onto a T shirt or more specifically like a logo/emblem on the pocket area of the shirt? Or does anyone know of anyplace that sells this type of iron? Thanks gang Gonzo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

getgoin Posted March 17, 2010 Share Posted March 17, 2010 Many of the shirt shops in Chiang Mai no longer do real silk screen and do this type of iron on transfer. It is cheaper and easier for them and they do not get the art of real silk screening. There is one across the river near where the river road takes the left to go to Tesco Lotus. It's right there on the left. The problem with iron on transfers is that the ink is thick and does not breath. It also cracks and starts to flake off in a couple of years. If you want a real silk screener there is a guy in a small shop up off Chang Puak Rd. just past the Novotel. You take the first right pat the Novotel and he is down on the right near the end of a row of shop houses. It's a small shop and he will do anything. Bring him the design. I think you have to buy your own shirts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I might suggest that the flaking is in part caused by the stretching of the threads to the max. really what I am looking for , if the machines are not too expensive, is an outlet for my sense of humor.
