Thank you! I'm not surprised that it was Siser that you found to be best and I am really glad to know about the difference in the presses. I usually use my easy presses when I do stuff for the kids because of the size and the PIA location of my 15x15 traditional press and I would have been very disappointed with the results.

@elainestorrs1512 4 ай бұрын

Thank you for this test. You confirmed the same results I am getting. I tried HTVRont puff twice and couldn’t get it smooth with my easy press. Then it peeled after a few washes. I applied over a flocked HTV and same result as you stated-didn’t work. Thanks again for confirming it wasn’t just me😵‍💫

Looks like sister for the win. Thank you for sharing. This was excellent as usual, I love following you. My question is, you use the cricut auto press I have the HTVront auto press do you think I get the same results? What I mean is the results were that was crinkled or with lines?

@AngieHolden 4 ай бұрын

I have seen other people use it and also not get great results. I would say it would also be inconsistent.

@melanieadams5450 Ай бұрын

Very helpful. Unfortunately, I listened AFTER I cut my puff project with the shiny side down. It weeded so easily. Thank goodness it was a simple cut. I am going to cautiously iron-on with the carrier sheet up and hope for the best in removing the carrier. Thank you!

Great video Angie! I am not familiar with some of those brands, but i know with Siser i've seen it where they press it twice, the second time without a carrier sheet for a few seconds to increase the puff. so you think the brands from amazon would benefit from doing that? thanks again for the great content!

@christineconley7903 4 ай бұрын

Thanks. I have the HTVRont Autopress, did you try adding extra heat mats underneath to increase the pressure on your Autopress? I wish there was one-machine-fits-all! I may have to break down and get a traditional heat press to add to my machine arsenal.

@AngieHolden 4 ай бұрын

Any of the AutoPresses don't get much extra pressure with more mats. The benefit is that they apply the same pressure no matter what thickness your item is.

@israelmelendez1319 3 ай бұрын

Thank you for this experiment!!! I have the auto press and it kept coming out “brainy looking” tried so many different temps and time and it kept coming out the same. Very frustrating. I think it’s time for a traditional heat press.

I find that they do not really flatten out. The cracking is the most prevalent issue over time.

You would just press those premade ones according to the directions. I have instructions on using flock to make something similar here: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/bL2Jm9WEvtCYc3U.html

Have you tried on canvas totes? I’m having the darnest time getting my puff to puff on tote bags. Tried everything from heat settings to press time and different pressure. Works great on shirts but not tote bags I’m using

@AngieHolden 4 ай бұрын

It is probably the seams. They can hold the heat press off of your surface and REALLY mess with puff. Do you have a firm heat resistant mat you can put inside of the bag?

@Pretear521 4 ай бұрын

@@AngieHolden I did buy a heat resistant pillow to go in, I only tried it a few times, was frustrated by the time I decided to try using it 😆

@Skadivore 3 ай бұрын

I think the reason is also that shirt jersey is stretchy and will adjust to the puff. Canvas is stiff because of the way it is woven and won’t move with the vinyl to puff.

What do you do with those puff shirts in the video that don’t turn out?

Any "oops" type of things in videos get donated if they are usable at all. These are probably something someone would wear so I would donate. If they are not something that someone would use, I would probably use the fabric as a rag.
