with some polyesters you need to use lower temp. to apply transfers. Not all transfers work at lower temperature. What type of transfer was it ?

when printing on polyester garments that are not your everyday imprint t-shirt, you always need to test it before you start the job. What we do, if we do not have the same exact fabric/content on hand is, rip out a small piece of the transfer and print/test it on the inside hiden area of the garment. Make the right apply adjustments and so on.

A lot can go wrong when HEAT pressing/printing garments that are not made for this purpose, heat transfer printing.

Using a Teflon sheet sometimes helps.
