These recommended time, temperature, and pressure settings are based on our preferred use of Stahls' Hotronix® Fusion IQ® Heat Press, with Poly/Cotton, Cotton, and Polyester garments. Settings on other heat presses may vary. Please test accordingly.

* Some thicker, softer garments may need to peel warm/cool. We’ve noticed this needing to happen with some Bella+Canvas fleece garments.
