Questions & Answers
Everyone has questions. Tell us yours.
Q:
Why is a cover sheet necessary?
A:
A cover sheet not only protects your garment, it also protects your upper platen from stains, inks, adhesives, and scratches.
Q:
Can I use a different material for my foreground layer and my background layer?
Q:
Can I use a household iron to apply Stahls' products?
A:
We do not recommend applying any of Stahls' products with a household hand iron. We suggest using a heat press with adjustable pressure settings.
Q:
Can I heat apply onto sublimated jerseys?
A:
Yes, we recommend doing so using Thermo-FILM® at a reduced temperature. Thermo-FILM will block any dye migration. Thermo-FLOCK® is also a suitable choice.
Q:
Why is my Thermo-FILM® falling off after washings?
A:
The most common reason is underapplication, which can be caused by seams, buttons, zippers, etc., that do not allow the heat press to close firmly on the print. Use a pillow or print perfect pad to raise the print area.
Q:
How can I prevent a garment from showing heat press indentation?
A:
For the best results, when applying to a certain area of your garment use Print Perfect pads. Print Perfect pads can be cut into the same shape or area of the logo/graphic being applied. This will prevent the rest of your garment from being heat applied.
Q:
I order materials by the yard, but the rolls are too long for my GX-24. Did I do something wrong?
A:
You should be using CAD-CUT® heat transfer material with your vinyl cutter. These materials have a clear carrier and the widths are compatible with the GX-24. Materials By the Yard are rolls that must be hand cut or used with a flatbed cutter. This material does not have a carrier backing and is typically too long for a vinyl cutter.
Q:
I have a water-resistant jacket. What product do I use for heat application?
A:
We have several heat transfer materials that heat apply to a water-resistant jacket. The best recommendation is Gorilla Grip® II. You can also use our material selection chart to determine the proper material for your needs.
