First off, try the (low bleed) ink that you use for direct printing, but, if you can, I'd suggest rethinking the 50/50 to avoid the potential bleeding problem. Companies like International Coatings warn that their 500 transfer series is not low bleed, but that you may have success because of the relatively low application times. Union also has a transfer line, TransOpake, but it also is not listed as low-bleed.

In general, in the past, I have used regular plastisols when I could, merely tried them first. I always coat with adhesive powder as well.
