Very Heavy pressure
DO NOT mirror image
Note: The recommended settings above may need adjustments for best results.
Settings will vary depending on the heat press brand and model ink and paper
and atmospheric conditions.
2nd Note: The layers of soft paper towel achieve two goals: 1. it helps to
distribute the pressure evenly throughout the substrate; 2. it helps to trap
the ink that is dispersed outside of the edges of the substrate if there is an
overprint area or full bleed in the artwork.
3rd Note: Sublimate on the white side. The sublimation will be very dull on
the clear side.
Layer the press from the bottom pad to the top heat platen as follows:
1. teflon sheet or scratch paper
2. 2-3 layers of soft paper towel
3. substrate
4. transfer
5. teflon sheet or scratch paper
Steps:
1. Align the substrate onto the transfer.
2. Tape two ends of the substrate to the transfer using heat tape.
3. Place the transfer and substrate in the press onto the paper towel
(transfer on top of the substrate).
4. Place the Teflon sheet or scratch paper over the transfer and acrylic.
5. Press the items using the settings listed above.
6. Remove items from the press immediately. Use heat-resistant gloves if
necessary - the items will be very hot.
7. Tear the transfer in half opposite the taped ends.
8. Place the sublimation side down with a heavy object on top to prevent
warping while it cools.
