Introduction
Unlock professional-grade custom apparel with MagiCut 2Print, the go-to solution for high-quality, full-color heat transfers. Whether you’re running a small boutique or a high-volume print shop, this printable Heat Transfer Vinyl (HTV) offers the perfect balance of durability, ease of use, and vibrant results.
In this post, we’ll dive into why MagiCut 2Print is a game-changer for garment decorators and why its partner-in-crime, MagiCut Application Tape, is essential for a flawless finish.
What is MagiCut 2Print
MagiCut 2Print is a professional-grade printable flex film designed for use with Eco-Solvent, Solvent, UV, and Latex printers (like the Roland BN series). Unlike standard HTV, which requires you to layer different colors, 2Print allows you to print complex, photo-realistic designs, gradients, and intricate logos directly onto the film.
Why choose MagiCut 2Print?
- Versatility: It is available in White (perfect for dark and colored garments) and Clear (ideal for white and light-colored textiles).
- Fabric Compatibility: It adheres beautifully to 100% cotton, 100% polyester, and cotton/poly blends.
- Soft Hand-Feel: One of the standout features of the 2Print range is how thin and flexible it is. It doesn’t feel like a heavy “sticker” on the shirt; it moves with the fabric.
- Durability: It is built to last, withstanding washes up to 60°C without fading or cracking, making it a top choice for workwear and sportswear.

The Secret Ingredient: MagiCut Application Tape
If you’ve ever tried to move a printed design with multiple floating elements (like separate letters or detailed logos) from the backing to a shirt by hand, you know it’s a recipe for disaster. This is where MagiCut Application Tape becomes your best friend.
What does it do?
Think of Application Tape as the “bridge.” Once you have printed and weeded your design, the tape is applied over the top to lift the entire graphic off its original carrier. It keeps every dot, line, and letter in the exact position you intended.
Key Benefits
- Precision Alignment: It ensures your design doesn’t shift or warp during the move to the heat press.
- Heat Resistance: Specifically designed for HTV, this tape won’t melt or leave sticky residue on your garment under the high heat of the press.
- Tack Options: Depending on your project, you can choose from Medium, High, or Ultra High tack. For standard 2Print White or Clear, Medium Tack is generally the “Goldilocks” choice—strong enough to lift the vinyl, but gentle enough to release it once pressed.
How to use them together?
Using these two products is a straightforward 4-step process:
- Transfer: Lift the design off the backing using the tape, position it on your garment, and press at 150°C for 10 seconds. Wait for it to cool, then peel away the tape!
- Print & Cut: Print your design (right-reading, not mirrored) and use your plotter to cut the contours.
- Weed: Remove the excess vinyl from around your design.
- Mask: Apply the MagiCut Application Tape over your weeded design. Use a squeegee to ensure a firm bond and to push out any air bubbles.
Ready to level up your printing game?
MagiCut 2Print and Application Tape are the “power couple” of the garment decoration world. By using them together, you ensure that every shirt you produce looks professional, stays vibrant, and lasts through every wash.
