Tip...accurate pressure is key to getting accurate results. Make sure your garment is
flat on the press area; overhang the collar and any seams over the edge of your press.
Stop and look. We have five different materials loaded onto the vinyl cutter and two blacks.
We have a gloss black and a matte black and our t-shirt's black.
So we're going for a cool tone on tone look. Cutting the gloss black which is a thicker
material is going to give us a lot of dimension and pop off of the print.
So watch these cut and I'll be back for the weeding process.
Pay attention! Watch how I turn that material around in order to weed at the proper angle.
Now when I'm weeding I actually pull the material inside of the "G".
It makes weeding a lot easier.
Oooooh! Shame on myself. I just wasted all of that material. When you're cutting a single
piece small piece like this, be sure to put a weed border around your design. I could
have reclaimed all of that yellow material later.
Screen One...always preheat your garment to remove moisture and wrinkles before pressing.
Screen Two...when overlapping layers be sure that you cover everything with a cover sheet
that way the bottom layers not exposed to the heater.
Screen Three and Four...when you're working with a cool peel material you can use a heat
eraser to get the heat out or you can hold it up to a wall to cool it down rather quickly.
That's it a one of a kind garment with four colors of SportFILM Lite the bottom layer
of black, red, yellow and green. And one layer of ThermoFILM the glossy black.
