Now use a squeegee to press out all of the air bubbles. Now lift the mask up - it should have your design on it, ready to apply.

For light colors, mask the sheet on the backafter it is printed and prior to cutting in order to make it two layers. Trim the edges so that the mask is about the same size as your transfer paper. Now cut it using the proper downforce -found by doing test cuts. Weed away the excess or if your design is simple and fully contained within on piece, just lift it off. Lay your printed design face down on the shirt and follow the heat instructions for the paper you are using.

Should work - you must be missing a step???
