Paul, is there a bit on here about heat transfers?
Cant seem to find one. Presses yes, transfers no.

what kind of transfer are you interested in??? Sublimation is a heat transfer method so this forum is all about it :)

Hi all.

Its the transfer paper really. Ive got some hot peel paper, pressed it following the instructions, and couldnt get it off (hot or cold).
Some paper came off while hot, as did some ink, but it cooled quickly. I reheated it and some more paper came off.
I put it in a sink of hot water and the top layer came off but a clear bottom layer (complete with visible edge) remained.

Im sure its something simple but theres that many variables I feel Ill be here forever trying to find out the problem.
