heat transfer paper

Laser Dark 2 Step Transfers – When marrying the 2 sheets together it is best to make sure your lower platen is hot. You can hover your press over it prior to printing or do a short press for 10 to 15 seconds with nothing in the heat press. Also once you do marry the 2 sheets together, peel them apart immediately on the press so they stay warm. This helps get a clean consistent peel and will make for a better transfer to the garment. Bonus – Don’t use a teflon cover sheet on the lower platen as that tends to reflect away the heat and can cause issues.
