30 seconds heavy pressure
peel hot and slightly stretch tee
optional repress 5 seconds with a teflon sheet.

You will be good to go and the more pressure the better.

SOUNDS PRETTY EASY TO ME, SO IS JPSS YOUR MAIN LIGHT TRANSFER!!!


HOW HIGH IS THE TEMPERATURE WHEN U PRESS FOR 30 SECS

AND WHAT DOES THE REPRESS DO///


I HAVE A TEFLON SHEET, DO I PLACE IT OVER THE JPSS THE FIRST PRESS. I NORMALLY DONT USE THE PARCHMENT PAPER I USE MY TEFLON SHEET!!!


THANKS FOR YOUR REPLY

LIKE I SAID I CANT AFFORD TO FOR ANY THING TO GO WRONG, I WAS USING A NEW MILFORD, BUT I KEPT HEARING SUCH GREAT THINGS ABOUT JPSS, BUT THEN I HEAR BAD THINGS TOO, MAINLY THE CRACKING ISSUE, AND THEN BLEEDING??


BUT ANY TIPS WOULD BE GREAT

370 for 25-30 sec. very slight stretch ( when customer pulls on shirt, it will not look like it's cracked)......If possible, try both hot-peel & cold-peel and let us know what you think

sorry i used caps
as one of the first people that used JPSS (In fact if you go to google and do a search for jet pro SofStretch I will come up second, how neat is that) I have never had bleeding. I have never had cracking. The people above have used it with same results. Lou

Yep....375 deg...30 secs...medium to heavy pressure. Stretch shirt after peeling transfer.

Not sure what the peeling issue is..just saw the post last night but I haven't had any issues.

But...it's worth keeping an eye on. IronAll for darks was a great paper until somebody discovered the fading issue surfacing with the bad batch of paper.

I still have an image on the paper with Ironall and JPSS. We may use different printers and inks, tho.

Terrell, I'm not sure where you are at, between our pm's and your threads, I am a little lost as to your progress. Where are you at with everything? Are you okay at this point? Everything good?
