will a scratch effect my heat press?
I did my first rhinestone transfer last night. It turned out great except that one stone stuck to the top of my heat press. When I removed it, the stone scratched my brand, new press!!! Is having a scratch going to be a problem when I do other transfers? Thanks for your help!

Re: will a scratch effect my heat press? Probably not. Just make sure you get off as much glue as possible. Use something like Goop to remove it...when it is cold.

Re: will a scratch effect my heat press? Would a teflon sheet prevent that from happening?

Re: will a scratch effect my heat press? A teflon sheet could prevent it from happening but it is unusual and might not happen again anyway.

Re: will a scratch effect my heat press? should I be using a teflon sheet? What exactly is a teflon sheet??? Remember, I'm just a newbie.
