Heat Transfer Vinyl Heat Settings

Before you press (or iron on) your heat transfer vinyl, make sure you're using the right heat setting. If it is too hot, you could burn the material and if it you're not using enough, the material might not stick or you could have issues with peeling after a garment is washed and worn. Below, you'll find what temperature and time we suggest for your heat press or iron - but remember every tool is different so be sure to use this as a guide.
