Pre-Production:
Please check transfers carefully before heat-applying.

Set Temperature:
Set the press to 290°F

Pre-Heat Garment:
First, place the garment on platen, heat press for 3-5 seconds or until there is no more steam to remove wrinkles and moisture. Ensure there are no obstructions such as buttons, pockets, or seams. If there are, raise only the print area with a Print Perfect Pad.

Position & Press:
Place the transfer on the garment so that the ink side is facing down. Close the heat press and apply for 15 seconds.

Peel Cold:
Open the press and remove the shirt. Allow to cool completely to the touch. (This may take several minutes to cool completely.) Peel the carrier in a smooth, even motion.

Time: 15 Seconds

Temperature: 290°F

Pressure: Low/Medium 4-5 (40-50 psi)

Peel: Cold

Note: The recommended time, temperature, and pressure settings are for Stahls' Hotronix® heat press machines. Settings on other heat presses may vary.

• Post-application care instructions: wash garment inside out
• Use a cover sheet to reduce static buildup.
• Do not use a pillow.
• Do not use an upper platen cover.
• If edges are raising or appearance of slight adhesive outline is more defined due to fabric
  color, lay cover sheet over the transfer, repress for 10-15 seconds, then immediately remove
  cover sheet.
