General Heat Transfer Instructions
•Follow the Heat Transfer Paper Instructions for best results.
•Preheat press to 310°F while preparing product.
•Close the heat press while empty to heat the bottom heat platen for at least 5 minutes.
•Press A and B papers together for 120 seconds at 310°F with medium pressure.
•Open the press and immediately peel A and B sheets apart while both papers remain on press bed.
oIMPORTANT: Do not remove papers from the press bed while peeling.
•Increase heat to 365°F and time to 35-45 seconds.
•Place transfer face down on product taping one edge of the transfer with heat tape.
•Place product onto platen and place green foam over top of product.
•Adjust press pressure to medium and close press.
•Open press, remove green foam pad.
•Wait approx. 5 seconds, then peel transfer paper off product while still hot.
•Remove product from press slowly to avoid ‘snapping’ bands.
oIMPORTANT: Be very careful not to bump or move the transfer paper while removing the
garment from the press. The transfer can fail if the transfer paper is moved while still hot or warm.
•Place the garment back onto the heat press and place silicone finishing paper on top of the image.

Troubleshooting
•The image did not completely transfer to the garment.
oSlightly increase the press pressure during the A-B marrying process.
oBefore peeling the A and B sheets apart during the A-B marrying process, wait 5-7 seconds before
beginning to peel the sheets apart. Wiping the surface during the 5-7 second wait time can also
help buff out excess heat and ensure all of the B-adhesive is sticking to the toner.

oSlightly increase the press pressure when pressing the image to the garment.
oMake sure the garment and transfer sheet is completely cooled to room temperature before
rolling the transfer sheet off of the garment.
•Pieces of the image stuck to the B-adhesive sheet while trying to peel the A and B sheets apart during
the A-B marrying process.
oBefore beginning the A-B marrying process, close the heat press while empty to heat the bottom
heat platen for at least 5 minutes.
oSlow down the rate of peel while peeling the A and B sheets apart.
oAt the end of the peel, slow the rate of peel almost completely so that the remaining tension
between the A and B sheets will naturally and slowly separate the last parts of the image.
oMake sure that both A and B sheets are still touching the bottom press platen during the entire
duration of the peeling process.
oWhen peeling the A and B sheets apart, peel the sheets apart at a very low angle.
•The image colors appear muted or washed out on the garment after the image has been transferred.
oMake sure the correct paper type/ paper profile is selected in the RIP software before printing.
oReduce the amount of white toner and/or Coverage % printed on the image within the RIP
software settings.
Only reduce this setting in 5-10% increments.
•Slightly reduce the press pressure on the heat press.
