Heat Press Instructions

Hover transfer under open heat press for 10 seconds to dry excess moisture.

1) Pre-press the FRP for 20 seconds, allow to cool completely.

2) Dry transfer image under heat platen (just for a few seconds, do not lower it, just hover over the transfer paper.)

3) Cover the press with protective paper.

4) Lightly mist transfer with DyeTrans Pro Spray.

5) Place the transfer on the FRP, smooth wrinkles. Lay this face-up on the platen.

6) Cover with thin fabric (we recommend P/N# PCK45, sold separately)

7) Cover with protective paper.

8) Press with TIME/TEMP/PRESSURE settings listed above.

- Do not stack items while hot. Place separately on a table to cool. A thin plastic film that must be removed prior to pressing protects some items.
