Hi,
Hoping for some advice on this issue as I'm new to sublimation.
I get polyester/spandex sportswear made in China and have bought an adkins heat press to add some logos to them here.
Im having 3 problems i could do with some help with below.
On pressing the garment i am using grease proof paper on the bottom and top of the garment.
Pressing for 90 seconds at 180 degrees C - as per the paper manufacturers guide sheet.
On releasing i am getting:
1. an edge mark from the heat press plate
2. and edge mark from the transfer paper
3. scorching/slight melting of the fabric resulting in a shine.
I have reduced the pressure which has reduced the scorching to the fabric but I'm worried that reducing it further will effect the transfer.
Any advice is appreciated, i hope i can give general garment advice to other users in the future.
Thanks
