Following the recommended settings when applying heat transfer vinyl (HTV) is essential to achieve the best possible results and ensure the finished product is durable and long-lasting. These settings consider several factors, such as the type of fabric, the temperature of the heat press, the amount of pressure, and the length of time needed to apply the HTV.
Using incorrect settings can result in HTV that doesn’t adhere properly to the fabric, peels over time, or cracks during washing. This can lead to wasted material, lost time, and dissatisfied customers. Moreover, incorrect settings may damage the fabric, causing it to shrink, burn, or discolor, further increasing the risk of a poor-quality product.
