important tips
- Do not use a cover sheet for the initial main press
- Always check your transfers before placement.
- Check your heat press platen with a laser temperature gun to ensure accurate temps.
- Store your transfers in a cool dry place.
- Always lint roll your garment prior to placement.
- For post press, use a teflon cover sheet
- All test are done using a Stahls Hotronix Heat press, your settings may vary.

image setup
- Maximum per image size – 14″ x 14″ design area
- Color mode – Use a Pantone color book in your software. We suggest using Pantone Solid Coated Bridge CP, please save your artwork as a cmyk file
- Document setup – create a PNG transparent image/ 300 dpi per logo added as single image or in multiple image in your gangsheet
- Transparent Space – do not leave any padding around your image or it will print that way
- TIPS – Plastisol inks are for vector style designs single colors no fades or gradients can be achieve unless your halftoning single colors.
- Convert– all text to outlines or curves (aka: non editable vector)
- Line weights – all lines must be a minimum weight of 1 pt. Any negative space need to be a minimum thickness equal to 2 pts. Designs details that fall under these requirements may not print well
making a gangsheet
If you are building your own gangsheet, from scratch just create your document or art board as 15″ x 15″ and art area as 14″ x 14″ add your PNG transparent artwork to that area and upload that gangsheet image file and quantities needed.
