HEAT PRESSING “GUIDELINES”

YOU ABSOLUTELY HAVE TO GET FAMILIAR WITH WHAT SETTINGS WORK FOR YOUR PRESS. THESE ARE STARTING POINTS. EACH PRESS IS DIFFERENT!!

POLY            –   275/10 SECONDS

TRIBLEND    –   275/10 SECONDS

50/50            –  300/12 SECONDS

COTTON       –  315/15 SECONDS

I use a GEO Knight and I press almost everything at 320 for 15 seconds. Times and temps will vary so get to know your press settings. I cannot stress this enough.

 

REPRESS WITH KRAFT PAPER FOR 10 SECONDS. YOU CAN USE THE BUTCHER PAPER I INCLUDE FOR EACH PRINT.
