IMPORTANT PRESSING TIPS

• A commercial-style heat press is recommended for consistent results.

• Make sure your garment is clean, dry, and free of wrinkles.

• Verify your heat press temperature and pressure before applying.

• Do not move or lift the carrier film until the appropriate peel temperature is reached.

• Always perform a test press when using unfamiliar fabrics or equipment.

• Avoid seams, zippers, and uneven surfaces when pressing.

• Wait at least 24 hours before washing.

• Turn garment inside out before washing.

• Machine wash cold with mild detergent.

• Avoid bleach and harsh chemicals.

• Tumble dry low or hang dry.

• Do not iron directly over the transferred design.
