If you’re not sure if your fabric will bleed or not, it’s a good idea to use a Blocker just to be safe. It looks and feels the same as the Wearable heat transfer and can be used on all the same gear (and more). The only difference is it has an invisible layer that stops any dye from the fabric bleeding through your design, which can help you avoid costly mistakes. So when in doubt, rock the Blocker.
Blocker heat transfers can be used on nearly everything: cotton, polycotton blends, fleece and all polyesters. This makes it perfect for tees, hoodies, stretchy athleisure wear, cotton tote bags and denim. It is often used on sublimated (patterned) polyester and tri-blend fabrics, which may bleed if you don’t use a blocker.
Blocker heat transfers are not designed for fabrics with waterproof coatings or specialty fabrics that require a low temperature heat press. In those situations, use our Lo Melt heat transfers.
