We are in the process of making our last 2 sets of shirts. Our t-shirts are flourescent green (Dis green). Do we use light or dark iron-on transfers?

If you have any white in your design and you want it to stay white - you will want to use dark iron on transfers.

If you use the light transfers, all white areas (or any areas that lack color) will be clear - or in your case DIS green.

I hope that helps!

I have a question....Black t-shirts....Light or dark transfers??? The design has white and black in it. I want the white and black to show. Use dark, right? If it has black writing...will it show up on a black shirt?

Thanks!

If you want the white to show - then you definitely have to use dark transfers.

If the black text is on any other color background then it WILL show.

The easiest way to picture it is this... if you printed your design to a sheet of white paper and then cut away any excess you wish, and then place that on the shirt - that is what it will look like using a dark transfer.

I hope that makes sense.

It does make sense. Thanks. I got light transfers for our white shirts. Wanted to make sure I need dark before I bought them to use with the black shirts. I'll post some pictures when I get them done. Never made t-shirts for a trip to disney before...I'm additcted now!!
