Default shirt changes color when heat pressed

Hey guys I did some heat transfers yesterday for the first time. I noticed that the t shirts were changing color not the vinyl just the shirt. they were red then the area the was under the press looked to change colors. the temp was 330 degrees is this a normal and does it go away?

Default Re: shirt changes color when heat pressed

The moisture was just removed from the shirt. Red shirts show a color difference more than others. The color will come back within a few hours, the shirt will absorb moisture from the air in the room and things will be ok!
