1. Image your graphic onto the
Paper Ranch heat transfer paper listed above (except TexPrint
XP) using the appropriate imaging device.
2. Place Ultra-White Opaque on the platen of your heat
press, with the smooth, cream-colored side down. It is recommended to lay
a sheet of baking parchment or a silicone sheet on the press underneath
the Ultra-White Opaque before beginning.
3.
Put the printed transfer image side down on top of
the white side of the Ultra-White
Opaque and press
with light pressure for 2-3 seconds at
400° Fahrenheit. Immediately after lifting the platen, gently rub
the back of the transfer from the center out with a soft cloth to smooth
out any bubbles This is long enough to
bond the image to the Ultra-White
Opaque .
4. The printed transfer sheet and
the Ultra-White Opaque are now bonded together. Trim
both products on a flat cutting surface. Use an ExactoTM
knife with a metal edge ruler. For best results, use a Precision Cutter.
NOTE: Do
not separate or peel the regular liner paper from the imaged transfer
sheet at this time!
6. Position the image on the
garment, with the Ultra-White
Opaque side down
and the printed backside of the transfer paper facing up. Apply, with the
press heated to 400° Fahrenheit and using high pressure, for 30 seconds.
Upon lifting the platen, gently rub the back of the transfer to remove
any bubbles with a soft cloth. Allow
approximately 10 seconds from lifting the platen before removing the
release liner from the back of the transfer. TIP: If the release liner of the heat transfer paper
should tear or is had to remove, reheat the image for 10-15 seconds at 400°F and immediately peel the remaining liner away. Place a sheet of baking parchment or silicone
release paper on top of your transfer first to cover any exposed areas
before repressing.
7. If a matte finish is desired,
after the transfer has cooled, re-press with a silicone sheet or baking
parchment for 2-3 seconds at 400°F.
WASHING INSTRUCTIONS:
1. Turn garment inside out. This
will minimize the amount of abrasion that the transfer will encounter
with other garments in the wash.
2. Wash the
garment in cold water using mild detergent.
3. DO NOT USE BLEACH.
4.
Remove the garment from the wash immediately, and allow to air
dry. If you are going to tumble dry, use the air only setting. By doing this over the life of the
garment, you will be ensuring that your image stays clear and bright.
5. If your garment needs to be
ironed, do not iron directly
on the transferred area. Use a silicone sheet sheet
or baking parchment to cover the transfer before ironing.
