 HOW TO APPLY:

  1. FLIP!- After you have selected your design, you will want to make sure to flip your image before cutting. Since you are going to be placing it face down on your fabric to iron, if it is not flipped, your design will be backwards. When you're ready, cut out your design. 
     
  2. WEED!- You can cut your design by hand or use a craft cutter.  After your design is all cut, remove the excess vinyl from around your image/lettering (this is called weeding). Our heat transfer makes weeding a breeze, but if you're ever struggling, laying your vinyl on a low-heat griddle, clear (carrier) sheet down, for just a few minutes will help release the adhesive and make weeding lines more visible.
     
  3. PRESS!- Every type of Heat Transfer Vinyl has its own recommended press time, temperature, and pressure settings (see above 'Heat Application Settings"), but make sure to do your homework to ensure you don't scorch your adhesive. Hotter is NOT always better, if you apply too much heat the vinyl will not adhere properly...not to mention you do not want to damage your fabric either!
     
  4.  PEEL!- You also need to make sure to check whether or not your vinyl can be peeled hot or cold. This is referring to the removal of the clear carrier sheet, and whether you can do this directly after pressing (hot peel) or if you need to wait until it has fully cooled and the adhesive has had time to set (cold peel). Definitely make sure to check before anxiously pulling off that carrier sheet, you don't want all of your hard work going down the drain. 
Just remember: FLIP IT, WEED IT, PRESS IT, PEEL IT!
