Siser ColorPrint PU Gloss Not Transfering

[bigblocktrader]

This is my second attempt to use this siser color print PU, I cant get it to transfer to the TTD Easy Mask!! I even ran one through my laminator rollers three times.
Siser you tube shows a effortless 123 done. doing 4 x 3.5 pocket logo and 2 out of 5 don't mask. Tried doing two 13 x 11 back shirt and just wasted two in a row.

TDD Mask is what Siser recommends, print weeds nice at 30 force and prints great, its just useless after that.

desperately in need of some help, thanks


attachment is before mask

There was a recent thread regarding your problem. IIRC it is a bad lot of material. Call your rep.

In the meantime get yourself some Eco-Print from Imprintables Warehouse. It's all we've ever used and had no issues.

A lot of us are having problems with the new rolls. They are in the process of testing the new batch and haven't heard back. I have a bad roll. What i do to make it work for jobs that need to be done is.

Its hard to explain. But When peeling the two apart I use the 90 corner (has to be a sharp edge) of my table for assistance. I put the printed side resting on the table, and the mask side facing away. Only let the masking separate the backing at the corner of the table otherwise it wont transfer.

I can try and take a picture to show.

I have found if I leave plenty of transfer mask off the design, I can rip it very fast and it comes off fine.

Not with their new rolls. You do that and all you will get is a piece of mask and nothing attached to it.

Just ordered some Eco-Print from Imprintables,
Just don't understand if Siser knows there is a problem they should remove it from all outlets instead releasing it,

thanks for all replies

As far as i know. They were supposed to receive some around the 5th and test it first.

I actually received this on 11/04/14

Who did you order it from?
They must had a small bunch go out prior. I know of a few people who had bad rolls before i talked to siser about the problem. They were back ordered every where for a bit, and then on the 5th they were supposed to get a whole new batch. I will talk to them again.. Since it has been a week since then and i have customers waiting.

I tried this sharp edged table method, only added another step, I heated the TTD mask on the hix 800 to approx 100 deg then removed from backing flipped over and continued to heat tack side up,No I did not close the lid lol, Used my temp gun to monitor heat, This made it very pliable and a lot easier to apply,then used your table method it was still a little trickie to get started but I was able to do a 13.5 x 11.5 transfer,

with all that said WAY TO TIME CONSUMING for ony one shirt
