Creativity Freedom with Siser Easy Color Transform Your Projects with Siser Easy Color

Transform Your Projects with Siser Easy Color

Have you ever wanted to turn plain clothes into bright, colorful art pieces? Instead of using Iron-on-vinyl with one color, you can use Direct-To-Vinyl with Siser Easy Color. It will ultimately let you print amazing, full-color artistic designs right from your own inkjet printer!

Siser EasyColor DTV is a new type of heat transfer vinyl (HTV) designed for inkjet printers, unlike regular HTV which comes in single colors. You just need to put it in your inkjet printer to print your design, and then use a heat press to transfer it onto your fabric.

Why Choose Siser EasyColor DTV?

Here are the reasons why Siser EasyColor DTV is special for you:

  • Through Siser EasyColor you can make your wildest ideas come true with bright, colorful prints. You can print photos, detailed designs, and full-color logos with EasyColor.
  • You don't need special tools because Siser EasyColor works with regular inkjet printers. In short, it's great for crafters and hobbyists.
  • You just need to skip the expensive printing services because Siser EasyColor lets you make professional-looking designs at home without spending more money.
  • EasyColor can be used on various fabrics, like cotton, polyester blends, and even some types of leather.
  • EasyColor designs stay vibrant even after many washes.
  • EasyColor is CPSIA-certified, which means it's safe to use on kids' clothes.

Get Started with Siser EasyColor

You can get started with your artistic design using Siser EasyColor just by following this guideline:

Collect All  Necessary Materials

  • Siser EasyColor DTV sheets (various sizes).
  • Inkjet printer with pigment inks (check your printer's manual first).
  • Cutting machine (optional, for detailed designs). You can use scissors, an Exato Knife, or a paper trimmer. 
  • Weeding tool
  • Heat press
  • Transfer tape (recommended for detailed designs).
  • Parchment paper
  • Fabric of your choice (pre-washed and ironed).

Step 1: Create Your Design

  • You can make your clothes artistic, using design software like Adobe Photoshop or online tools like Canva as they are most reliable to create designs. 
  • Remember to mirror your image before printing.

Step 2: Print Your Design

  • Make sure your inkjet printer uses pigment inks because Dye inks might not work well in these conditions.
  • Load the EasyColor sheet into your printer following the manufacturer's instructions.
  • Print your design on the printable side of the EasyColor sheet (usually the uncoated side).

Step 3: Cutting (Optional)

  • You can cut unnecessary detail on your design by using a cutting machine.
  • Use a weeding tool to remove any excess vinyl around your design.

Step 4: Weeding

  • Carefully peel away the excess vinyl using the weeding tool.
  • Remember to be patient, especially with detailed designs.

Step 5: Apply Transfer Tape (Optional)

  • Transfer tape is highly recommended for detailed designs.
  • Cut a piece of transfer tape slightly larger than your design.
  • Lay the transfer tape on top of your weeded design and press gently.
  • Use a credit card or any other card to press the tape onto the vinyl, especially in detailed areas.
  • Peel back the transfer tape gently, ensuring your design lifts with it.

Step 6: Heat Press

  • Preheat your heat press to around 311°F (155°C). Check Siser's website for specific recommendations based on your fabric type.
  • Place your fabric on the heat press plate.
  • Set your design with the transfer tape facing up.
  • Apply heat and pressure according to Siser's recommendations for your fabric. Usually, this is around 15 seconds with medium pressure.
  • Let the fabric cool completely before peeling off the transfer tape.

Necessary Care For EasyColor

After converting a normal or plain garment into an art piece, it is important to take care of it. Here is how:

  • Wash your EasyColor clothes inside-out on a gentle cycle with cold water.
  • Try not to use harsh detergents, bleach, or fabric softeners.
  • Dry your artistic piece on low heat for the best results.
  • If you need to iron, use low heat and place a sheet of parchment paper between the iron and the design.

Some Common Issues and Their Solutions

Here are some of the common issues that can be faced while using Siser EasyColor and its solutions:

  • If the vinyl doesn't stick, check the right heat settings and pressing time for your fabric. Make sure all tiny vinyl pieces are weeded out.
  • If colors look dull, adjust your printer settings for higher ink saturation and try to use pigment inks and the correct printing profile.
  • If the vinyl cracks after washing, it could mean you didn't use enough heat or pressing time. Try heat pressing again with the recommended settings.

Enjoy Different Experiments

Well, once you've turned a plain garment into a colorful piece of art. Try using EasyColor on further fabrics like cotton blends, jerseys, and some leathers unlike sticking to one fabric. You can also mix EasyColor with traditional HTV for extra texture and layers. 


You can customize anything from t-shirts and tote bags to phone cases and mousepads. Join online communities, get inspired from people around the planet, and learn new techniques. You can become a pro in Siser EasyColor in no time with a little practice and some helpful tips!
