Pieces of vinyl or vinyl-like substance are cut out into shapes that are then pressed onto cloth and heated. This creates an extremely sturdy print, with many of the same advantages and disadvantages of screen printing.

The durability of this type of printing is much better than screen or digital printing. Some claim that these types of print usually outlast the t-shirt. | Pieces of vinyl or vinyl-like substance are cut out into shapes that are then pressed onto cloth and heated.
