  • Patent number: 6143115
    Abstract: A transfer sheet (10) for heat transferring a temperature-responsive decal having personally applied crayon coloring (22) onto a section of fabric (20). The transfer sheet (10) includes a paper sheet (12) treated with a release agent and a printed image (14) disposed directly thereon. A single uniform and transparent transfer layer (16) of thermoplastic material is disposed over the printed image (14) and other selected areas on the paper sheet (12). A plurality of abrasive particles (18) are partially embedded within the transfer layer (16) for abrading crayon (22) rubbed thereover and for enhancing the mechanical bond between the transfer layer (16) and the fabric (20) when the transfer sheet (10) is applied to the fabric (20).

  • Patent number: 4038123
    Abstract: A predetermined design for heat transfer to a fabric material is produced in color on a release paper by offset printing. To intensify or bring out the colors in the offset printed design the separate color portions thereof are outlined or accentuated by a color of a darker or deeper shade by silk screen printing the outlines with a black colored plastisol material. This design, complete with the bordered or outlined silk screened portions, and corresponding to the color design as it will appear on the fabric material, is then coated or covered with a thin film of a white colored plastisol material having an affinity for both the color design and a fabric material. When subjected to pressure and heat the design is transferred from the release paper to a fabric material.
