Thanks, Lou,

Hmmm... Yes I am pre-pressing the shirt, but two things you said made me curious. How do you "pre heat the lower pad"? It's rubber and the instructions say to never close the press on the bottom pad (DUH!). So what do you mean by this? Close it with a teflon sheet between?

Also, how would I know whether or not I'm applying "even pressure"? The "dollar bill test" on all sides? If the pressure were NOT even, how would I even fix that?

'Feeling like there are rays of hope...
