Cotton
PRE-PRESS: Pre-Press the garment for 5-10 seconds (before applying image) this releases wrinkles and properly preps the garment. *We recommend using a lint roller to provide the perfect surface.*
1ST PRESS: Place Image (printed-side DOWN) onto garment. Press at 270-300F degrees for 10-14 seconds HEAVY pressure. *If the transfer doesn't release properly you will need to adjust temperature and/or increase pressure. Start with the lower temperature and work your way up to find your zone*
HOT PEEL: Our film is hot peel. Immediately after pressing, carefully peel the film away from the garment. The film should release, leaving the transfer on the garment. *If it doesn't release smoothly, it
is fine to press again during this step and then remove.*
2ND PRESS: For the 2nd press, cover with parchment paper (for matte look), Teflon (shiny look) and press for 270-300F for 10-14 seconds with HEAVY pressure. *When properly pressed
the fabric lines should be clearly visible on the transfer*
Polyester/Blends Fabrics
PRE-PRESS: Pre-press the garment for 5-10 seconds (before applying image) this releases wrinkles and moisture and will properly prepare the garment for the transfer. *We recommend using a lint roller to provide the perfect surface.*
1ST PRESS: Place Image (printed-side DOWN) onto garment. Press at 270F degrees for 3-10 seconds HEAVY pressure. *The lower temp and time is due to the fabric absorbing heat at a faster rate. We suggest experimenting to determine the best settings for your heat press. *If the film doesn't release easily after first press then press again before releasing*
HOT PEEL: Remove the film immediately after opening and the film should peel right off leaving the transfer.
2ND PRESS: Cover with parchment paper (for matte look), or Teflon (shiny look) and press for 270F degrees for 3-10 seconds.
100% Polyester
PRE-PRESS: Pre-press the garment for 5-10 seconds (before applying image) this releases wrinkles and moisture and will properly prepare the garment for the transfer. *We recommend using a lint roller to provide the perfect surface.*
1ST PRESS: Place Image (printed-side DOWN) onto garment. Press at 260F degrees for 3-10 seconds HEAVY pressure. *This is due to the fabric absorbing heat at a faster rate. We suggest experimenting to determine your best settings for your heat press. You can also press multiple times if it is not adhering to
the fabric. Just allow the fabric to cool in between presses.*
HOT PEEL: Remove the film immediately after opening and the film should peel right off leaving the transfer.
2ND PRESS: Cover with parchment paper (for matte look), or Teflon (shiny look) and press for 260F degrees for 8 seconds.
*Note: Since heat presses vary in temperatures and pressure calibration, we recommend verifying the accuracy of
your own. We have attached a general recommendation guide for your use. If you haven't ordered from us before
we recommend ordering a few extra designs to find your optimal time, temp, and pressure settings.*
