PRINTING INSTRUCTIONS:
- Print the image in reverse/mirrored format using a Heavy paper mode.
- Trim away the un-printed areas of the transfer, if desired.
PRE-TRANSFERRING INSTRUCTIONS:
Pre-press the fabric for 5 – 10 seconds to remove moisture and wrinkles.
TRANSFERRING INSTRUCTIONS:
- Place the transfer on top of the garment with the print image against the fabric.
- Press 25 seconds @ 375°F (190°C) using medium to heavy pressure.
- For best results leave on the heat press, wait 10 – 15 seconds depending upon the fabric and then peel the paper in a smooth even motion.
- To improve the feel or “hand”, stretch the garment in all directions while still hot.
- If desired, wait and peel the paper after cooling completely (cold peeling). This method gives a stiffer “hand” but it is easier and works well for hard surfaces.
- On fabrics a cold peel can be softened by covering with parchment paper, repressing for 10-15 seconds and immediately stretching in all directions while still hot.
SOFT FABRIC PREFERRED METHOD
- Pre-press for 5-10 seconds.
- Place the transfer face down.
- Press for 10 – 15 seconds @ 375°F (190°C) using medium to heavy pressure.
- Remove from press and peel the paper after cooling. (Do not stretch.)
- Place the garment back on the heat press and cover the image with parchment paper.
- Press using medium to heavy pressure for 25 seconds to fully bond the image to the garment.
- Removed the parchment paper and immediately stretch the garment in all directions to soften, improve the “hand”, and also improve the wash durability.
WASHING INSTRUCTIONS:
Turn garment inside out and wash in cold water using a mild detergent. Do NOT use bleach. Dry on low-heat setting. Do not iron directly on the transferred area.
IMPORTANT: Heat presses vary in accuracy. The sellers and manufactures maximum obligation shall be to replace any paper that has proven to be defective.
NOTE: Repressing under parchment followed by stretching greatly improves both the “hand” and the wash durability.
