Step 1 Design your quote / text. You can use any program in which you can type text. Mirror the text, so that you will soon get it backwards. First print it out on plain paper to test whether the design is good and it looks good on the shirt. Print the print on the unprinted, smooth side of the transfer paper. Cut the text in round corners and leave about 2 mm edge. This makes the print less of the shirt less. If you want the last word in glitter letters, for this you can put the cut out paper letters on the glitter paper and cut them out like that. You can cut these letters out very carefully, without leaving an extra border around them Step 2 Place the T-shirt on an ironing board or table with a piece of cloth in between to protect the table. Iron the place where you want to print the text smooth and warm. Place the print with the image down on the fabric and cover it with a piece of baking paper. Press it firmly with an iron and slowly rotate for about a minute. Until you see that the print is stuck. With the tip of the iron, iron it evenly over the edges so that they are securely fastened. Remove the baking paper and allow to cool.
Then carefully pull out the paper evenly. Toddler to start with the front on one side and look equally well if the print really stays behind on the shirt. If that is not the case, then iron with an iron and baking paper on that spot. Let cool and try again. You do not need parchment paper for the glitter letters. These have a thin plastic over them which protects them. Place the letters with the plastic upwards on the shirt and make circular motions over the glitter until it is attached to the shirt. Allow to cool and gently pull the plastic away from the glitter letters. Step 3. Then put baking parchment on the letters again and carefully move the print over the print, for about 10 seconds. After a few seconds, carefully remove the baking paper. This fixes the print and removes excess ink and stays better after washing. Let the print on the shirt rest for a few hours (preferably 24 hours). Printed shirts are safe to wash after 24 hours at a maximum of 40 degrees. Turn the t-shirt inside out and let it soak in a bucket of water for a while before washing (or use the pre-washing program of the washing machine). Do not iron over the print afterwards, unless you cover the print with baking paper. The print remains so close to me so far! Most shirts have now been washed twice and with all shirts it went very well. If one shirt got a few tears in the print, which you think happened when you pulled it over your head too quickly and too enthusiastically after printing. You have had the rest of the shirts dry for 24 hours and you do not have any (large) cracks so far. But some wrinkles in your print (which are only visible from close by) are unfortunately insurmountable. It is advisable, however, not to choose too big motives, or divide them into pieces when choosing custom screen printing Vancouver service. It remains a picture that stretches as soon as you put it on and the larger the picture, the more chance of tearing.
