Default everlast and red grid paper question

Hi, theres so much to learn.Can anyone please tell me the difference in Everlast for lights and red grid. I have a sampler pac.It contains these plus blue grid for darks.I'm assuming that one is opaque. Also having trouble with the everlast paper backing sticking to the subtrate. Its been very humid.Could that cause a problem too? Please help.Thanks .Alice

hi,thanks Chub,I'm a newbie too. Its getting more confusing every day but fun when it turns out right.I'm even having trouble now with opaques bubbling up in spots on my totebags. Do you have to let your press cool down after a bit? Thanks.Alice

You don't have to let the press cool, but are you prepressing the totebags to get moisture out?

Hi Robert,thanks for the reply. Yes I tried pressing first and it didn't seem to make any difference,although some moisture did come out.Now I'm trying to remove the transfer by putting blank paper on and reheating,so I can experiment with the heat and time,etc. I'll keep trying!
I now find myself looking at everyones tshirts,and wondering how they are done. Alice
