Paper backing is impossible to remove

I had a great design idea for t shirts but I needed dark transfer material. The print was great and it cut well but it was impossible to remove the paper backing so I could iron it on to my shirt. I wish I had read the reviews before I purchased the product. What a waste of money.
Pros: Dries Quickly
Cons: Can't remove backing
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

We are very sorry to hear that! Please contact our consumer care center at (800) GO AVERY and one of our representatives can help take care of this issue for you. It sounds like you may have received a defective pack.
I would like to start by saying that I am a huge AVERY fan and use many of your products in both business & personal tasks. I have used your T-shirt transfers many times, but this was the first time to use the Dark transfer. I will say that NEVER again will I purchase these for use unless there is a re-design of the backing paper. The design printed beautifully & once I was able to get the backing off (never completely, there were always snippets of paper left on the design) they ironed on easily. The issue is the backing is not designed to peel easily. I made 4 shirts and it took over 30 minutes to remove the backing per shirt (2 hours total). I had to eventually use an Exacto and score the back enough that I was able to get it to lift in a small section, and once that was complete I had to rub the remaining paper with my finger to get it off the print. I still love the Avery products and will continue to use them, but not this particluar item!
Pros: Dries Quickly, Sharp Tones & Colors
Cons: Too Expensive

I used this to put my husband's company logo on a hoodie, the colors are still sharp a year and half later. he uses this hoodie weekly and not even cracks in the logo. AMAZING PRODUCT. As for the lady that complained about the white background....DUH! if it was clear, the color wouldn't look sharp. I know from experience what a clear iron-on looks like on a dark t-shirt, not good. This product did exactly what it was supposed to do! Thank you Avery!

THE BACKGROUND IS WHITE! I bought these to add text to navy T-shirts. It should be a clear label so the DARK SHIRT shows through. I am baffled that this even exists.
Everything printed out fine but when it came to peel off the backing sheet, there was no way. I will be seeking a refund.

I used these transfers for my graduation cap and some trip t-shirts. Once applied they look great, however it was REALLY hard to peel the back off of most of the sheets I used.
