Transfer Process for Pictures:

  • Print your design on the transfer media and cut away all non-transferable areas.
  • Peel off the backing paper and position the printed transfer foil onto the t-shirt.
  • Cover the design with one sheet of silicone paper (Glossy Finish or Matt Finish Economy) and 10 sheets of normal paper.
  • Press together using the settings below.
  • Remove the 10 sheets of normal paper. When it cooled down completely, remove the silicone paper. This avoids that the
    toner sticks on the silicone paper.
  • Cover the t-shirt with a silicone paper sheet and press again for 40 seconds.
  • Rub the silicone paper with a cloth, until the toner cools down completely, before you remove it. This prevents the toner from sticking to the silicone paper.

Transfer Process for Cutter/Plotter Designs:

  • Print your design with corner marks on the transfer media. use the corner marks to cut the design with a plotter which is using an optical eye.
  • Weed all the non-transferrable areas and rub an application tape on top of the weeded design.
  • Separate the application tape from the backing paper.
  • Position the application tape with your design on onto the t-shirt.
  • Cover it with 10 sheets of normal paper.
  • Press together using the settings below.
  • Leave to cool down completely before removing the application tape.
  • Cover the t-shirt with a silicone paper sheet and press again for 40 Seconds.
  • Rub the silicone paper with a cloth, until the toner cools down completely, before you remove it. This prevents the toner from sticking to the silicone paper.

Before starting a mass production, we recommend to make transfer and washing test with all materials. Important advice for double-sided printing on textiles: T-Shirts for a double-sided print (front side & backside), has to be put over the lower heat plate. In this case only one side will be treated with heat and you avoid that the applied design from the other side will be pressed out again. If your T-shirt is yellowing, lay a piece of fleece onto it during the transfer process.
