I am really enjoying using SCAL and my Silver Bullet to cut heat transfer vinyl to decorate tee shirts for my grandchildren. I've been using both a Rowenta and a T-Fal iron with good, but uneven results. Sometimes the iron seemed to be too hot and other times not hot enough. Using an infrared heat detector I realized that the T-Fal was heating to crazy-high temperatures - helpful for professional level vinyls (needing temperatures of 305-350 degrees), but a bit scary to realize it heats 200 degrees higher than the Rowenta.
After doing some research, I'm thinking that a ski wax iron might be good for my home use, as they are designed for higher temperatures. Has anyone tried this? Pros - Cons?
I'll let you know how it goes.
Thanks so much,
Carol
