How to apply FashionFlex® Puff
- Mirror your design and cut it with the shiny carrier side down (45° blade). Keep letters chunky — puff loses fine detail.
- Weed away the excess vinyl.
- Pre-press the garment for 2–3 seconds.
- Cover with a Teflon or parchment sheet and press at 305°F for 8–15 seconds with medium, even pressure (White and Silver 290°F; Lilac, Pink and Neons 275°F).
- Peel the carrier hot, the moment the press opens — that is when it puffs. No second press and no layering.
