Use lower temperatures for older or more delicate transfers. - **Pressure**: Set the heat press to **medium-to-firm pressure**. - **Time**: Begin with **20-30 seconds** for the initial press. 3. **Position the Transfer**: - Place the transfer face down on the garment, with the design side touching the fabric. - Cover the transfer with parchment paper or a Teflon sheet to protect both the transfer and your press. 4. **Press and Heat**: - Lower the heat press and hold it in place for the designated time (20-30 seconds). Ensure even pressure across the entire transfer. 5. **Peel Backing Carefully**: - **Cool Peel**: Allow the transfer to cool for 10-15 seconds before peeling. - Peel the backing slowly and evenly. If any part of the design does not adhere, carefully reapply heat for an additional 5-10 seconds. 6. **Set the Design (Optional)**: - After peeling, cover the design with parchment paper or a Teflon sheet and press again for 5-10 seconds to secure the transfer fully. --- ### **Important Notes**: - Vintage transfers are delicate due to their age, so handle with care during the process. - Avoid overheating, as it can scorch the transfer or garment. - If you are unsure about applying the transfer yourself, take it to a **professional** with experience in handling vintage heat transfers. Because this is a vintage item, proper adhesion cannot be guaranteed and depends on the equipment, method, and technique used. These steps are a general guideline for working with older iron-on transfers.
