What temperature should I press my heat transfer?

You are here:

Applying our transfers is super simple. Follow the steps and instructions below to achieve perfect results on your next project!

No Teflon Sheets, Covers or Pillows. Ever.
They dissipate the heat too much, resulting in a poorly applied transfer.

Calibrate Your Heat Press.
You will need to use a quality Infrared (IR) Temperature Gun (Contactless) to ensure your heat press is heating evenly and accurately. You should do this each and every time you start a new pressing cycle.

Pressure, Pressure, Pressure.
Our transfers will give you a quality and long-lasting decoration solution, but you HAVE to ensure you are using adequate and even pressure. This will ensure the formula properly adheres to your garment. Not using enough pressure can result in poorly applied transfers, that may peel.

Water resistant, waterproof, and fireproof garments:
We recommend testing a sample on your item before production. Water resistant, waterproof and fireproof garments may not accept a heat transfer application.

  • Temperature: 325 Degrees Fahrenheit 
  • Time: 7 Seconds 
  • Pressure: High Pressure (8-9 Manual, 60PSI Automatic) 
  • Peel: Hot Peel
