Customer Review

I make very happy times shirts themselves. Since I no longer have access to a cutter, I use from time to time such films textiles to embellish fabrics.

These films can act quite well. The pressure it is working fine, the colors come out well, as well as on normal paper. Caution: You should make sure that the motifs are ironed mirrored, so be sure to think about it that they also need to be reflected accordingly before printing! The design can then be cut, depending on the subject so. The corners should be rounded in every case, then the film keeps better.

The iron is then even a small effort. It takes a smooth and hard surface (ie a board is more suitable not) such as a flat table and spreads it a smooth fabric like a bed sheet or reference. It is best to think again about ironed to avoid irregularities arise.
The film is then placed on the fabric to be printed and firmly ironed. With a lot of heat and without steam! For this purpose as much pressure should be used, so it's full of physical exertion required. A real tour de force so! If one is of the opinion that now everything would sit tight, then allowed to cool the film and the fabric short and then the protective foil carefully. If you have fixed and ironed hot enough, then the image sticking. Otherwise, it threatens to tear with.

So you need generally a little skill, patience and power for iron, but the results can be quite impressive. The colors come out very well and the motif shines slightly. Before washing, it feels a little stiff on the substance of which are, however, already with the first wash.

Washing can be the printed textiles best on the left and at 30 degrees. Drying also. Here, the subject should not linger long in the machine, as it can damage the design and the color through cuddling.

Through each wash the subject loses the way, always a little more of its color intensity. So it looks pretty soon worn out, and in any case no longer new. Who can live with it, can strike without hesitation and will be here but his self-designed shirt have fun! It should be borne in any case only on the instructions!
