Hanes Soft L’Ink® Shirts

The presence of moisture in your fabric can lead to bleeding of the image. Remove moisture by pre-pressing your shirt for 10 seconds. Use Teflon® sheets between the front and back of the shirt to prevent the inks from penetrating to the other side of the shirt. If dye residue from your heat press is being deposited on your shirts at any time, heat press a paper towel or similar absorbent material to remove it.

Using a lint brush before pressing can greatly reduce lint or debris on the shirt.

MOISTURE & HUMIDITY PROBLEMS

The addition of moisture to the sublimation process can cause unwanted results. Under normal circumstances, the small amount of moisture that can accumulate in your paper is absorbed directly into the transfer substrate; however hard substrates like metal and ceramic are unable to absorb excess moisture. Some of problems that are attributed to moisture include: color shifting (colors lose accuracy), bleeding of the image, and uneven transfer of solid filled areas.

To avoid these problems

Keep your paper in a dry place.

If you suspect moisture, set the paper on your press for a few seconds. Do not press it. Just expose it to the warmth. The heat radiating from the press should help evaporate most of the moisture.

To eliminate moisture in fabric, press the fabric for 10 seconds before doing the heat transfer.

Use an absorbent cloth or fresh, non-textured paper towel behind the transfer sheet to absorb the moisture.
