Tips
Use photo as a guide and follow manufacturer’s instructions for all products used.
Don’t iron your shirt on the platen. The iron can warp the plastic when it heats it up. It also makes the shirt nearly impossible to pull off.
In a sans serif font like Helvetica, do not use text smaller than 9 point font size.
If you mess up when pulling the image, you can save the T-shirt for another try by putting it into the washer immediately. Use cold water and a small amount of detergent.
