📝 Step-by-Step Instructions
- Printing Your Design
- Use a high-quality print setting on your inkjet printer for the best image clarity.
- IMPORTANT: Do NOT mirror the image. Print your image as is (right-reading).
- Allow the printed sheet to dry for at least 10 minutes before proceeding.
- Prepare Press & Garment
- Preheat your heat press machine to 165°C (329°F).
- Briefly pre-press your textile for 3-5 seconds to remove moisture and wrinkles.
- Prepare & Position the Transfer
- Carefully peel the backing paper off the printed image.
- Place the printed image onto the textile with the printed side facing up.
- Press the Textile
- Cover the transfer with parchment paper or a Teflon sheet before pressing. This is crucial to protect the transfer and your heat press.
- Press for 15 seconds using low pressure.
- Post-Press
- Remove the textile from the machine immediately after pressing.
- Carefully remove the parchment paper or Teflon sheet from the top of the transfer.
🧺 Washing Instructions
- Wait 24 Hours: Allow at least 24 hours before the first wash to let the transfer set.
- Inside-Out: Wash the textile inside-out to best protect the image.
- Gentle Care: Use a cool or warm water wash on a gentle cycle. Avoid bleach or harsh detergents.
- Drying: Tumble dry on low heat or hang dry for optimal longevity.
⚠️ Key Tips for Success
- No Mirroring: Remember, print right-reading for dark transfers.
- Protective Sheet is Crucial: Always use parchment paper or Teflon over the transfer during pressing.
- Low and Quick: The lower temperature and shorter press time are specific to dark transfers and help prevent scorching or damage.
