Heat Pressing

Recommended Posts

when im doing t shirts and hoodys etc what is the ideal look im after for it to come out like. AS IN

 

do i want it to melt into the fabric a bit just tothe point before the fabric comes through, or do i want it to look like its kinda stuck on there. because it then seems to crease easy?

 

thanks

The shirt vinyl actually has a heat activated adhesive -- you don't want to melt the vinyl - that will cause cracking in the not to distant future

Just follow the instructions that comes with your thermal vinyl. Research transfer companies and ask for samples...some are better than others. I use Thermoflex and they come out great
