SulkyIron-On Transfer Pen, Black

GREAT, CLEAR directions on how to use. Pen has a "marble" inside (like a spray paint can); you shake the pen before using, and then press pen down on a piece of paper to release the ink. Then you trace over your paper pattern, lay the pattern upside down on the surface you want to transfer to, and use a dry iron on high heat to transfer the pattern. They suggest to pre-heat the target fabric to improve ink transfer and I agree this helps. I applied high iron heat for 90 seconds each time I did a transfer and found this worked best.The marble inside the pen is I think the KEY feature that makes this good. Also, the pen itself is clearly new, and has not sat around on a warehouse shelf drying out (as my previous pen seemed to have done).I used a black pen, but Sulky comes in other colors too.

Bought for embroidery.

Transferred pattern to linen for my rug hooking perfectly! I didn't believe it would work when my friend told me to use this method but I decided to give it a try and I was shocked when it did! It was so simple! Have ordered it again and this is my preferred method now!

I bought the black pen, wish it was a little thinner. 1) Put a piece of paper on my ironing board, in case it bleeds through fabric. 2) Don’t forget design is opposite, any letters will be backwards. 3). Put iron on lower heat, I used setting 1. Iron over, can lift up corner to peek. It came out gray, which is perfect. When I used the high heat and ironed very slow it came out a thick navy blue, not good.

easy to use

This worked well on fleece

I have been using this brand of transfer pen for many years, I am so glad that I could purchase this from Amazon, since I have tried all of the Craft Stores around me and no one knew what I was talking about. I use this to transfer a picture that I get on the internet to a shirt or any piece that I want to paint. Good quality, transfers nice and dark and I can actually use the transfer 2 or 3 times before I have to use the pen again. The pen has a long life. This is my favorite brand.

Image duplication is easy to use, the results are dependent on how much heat and pressure you use. So play around to get it right.
