Application Guide
Prepare Your Garment
Remove your garment from the dryer and make sure it is clean, dry, and free of wrinkles. A quick prepress is okay if you prefer.
Fast & Easy
Save time with our no-prep process — just press and go!
Place Your Design
Position your transfer exactly where you want it. Ensure the entire design is flat and smooth. Use heat-resistant tape on hats or side seams of garments.
Perfect Placement
Double-check placement before you press.
Press With Confidence
Set your heat press to 320°F / 160°C. Apply medium pressure for 15 seconds. No parchment paper or Teflon sheet needed. Once the time is up, let it cool completely, then peel the film. Cold peel delivers a smooth feel and vibrant results.

Cold Peel
Once the garment is completely cool to the touch, peel the film off slowly and evenly. You'll be left with a soft, durable finish that lasts.
Smooth & Durable
Cold peel for the best results and longest lasting prints!
Second Press
For enhanced durability, cover the design with parchment paper and press again for 5 seconds. This helps lock in the print and extend wash life.
Lock It In
A second press boosts durability and wash performance!
