Tips & Tricks (This is what makes the difference)
- Pressure matters more than time
Too light = poor adhesion. Aim for firm, even pressure across the whole design - Warm peel sweet spot
Peel too hot → can stretch
Peel too cold → can lift
Slightly warm = perfect release - If it’s lifting, don’t panic
Lay it back down and press again for a few more seconds - Use a pressing pillow when needed
Helps with seams, zippers, and uneven surfaces - Polyester tip
Lower temp = less risk of dye migration or scorching - Matte vs gloss finish
Parchment = more matte
Teflon = slightly more gloss
Washing Instructions
- Wait 24 hours before washing
