I need some input/suggestions on screening vs. heat transfer. Old school shape 10" x32" with tip to tail & rail to rail graphics. Nearly every company I spoke with won't screen graphics that large., but can do a heat transfer. HOw big is the quality difference?

Thanks

Talk to Screaming Squeegies -- they might still have their oldschool screens around.

Most companies are screening the heat tranfers or a portion of the heat tranfers at this juncture. Some quite good, some very, very bad. With the transfer, you can easily do nose to tail graphics.

S&B II is a screened heat transfer.

I have a conspiracy board that i got and it is screened rail to rail nose to tail. Heat transfers usually look like shit and wear/rub off really wierd and it looks even shittier.

If done properly with the lightest gauge transfer and quality screening, they look awesome. There is a fair bit of lame stuff out there though.

They are a different company... and I won't "advertise" their name since they recently ripped a bro of mine off. They did nicework, but they are clearly assholes.

2 Stinger shapes because, though they promised they'd have the job done and on time, they ran out of shape 1. I had to make a snap decision to fill the rest of the order with a similar stinger shape -- and they ran out of that too. I was shorted about 8 decks. And it had to be done so I could pack and ship them while I was stateside, otherwise everyone's cost/hassle/duty would have become an issue. And they were already a week and a half late in doing the run (and I was only there for 2 weeks). Phuctards!

That SNB deck looks awesome. I'm trying to collect just random decks just to support the cause and what not. Are you guys selling any? Thanks,
Josh P.
