Рет қаралды 26,998

Күн бұрын

This TRW Tutorial Video will walk you through how to Press a Custom Folding Chair with Siser Heat Transfer Vinyl and a heat press.
One of the greatest things about this industry is that you can decorate almost anything to help advertise your business.
PRO TIP: Since this chair is not going through the laundry, you can drop your dwell time!
Get your Siser Easyweed here: www.therhinestoneworld.com/sh...
Some items cannot be decorated or need specialty decoration methods. We like to test different items and share with you, so you're not wasting materials.
Be sure to only tack press the first layers of htv, so it doesn't shrink and your design still lines up. Also, when pressing odd shaped items like this chair, be sure the area you are decorating is on your platen.
Comment below with any questions. And please share this video with anyone you think it will help,
Thanks, Crew!

As a long time embroiderer you can buy chairs that the top slides off easily for decoration. SanMar and S&S Activewear sell them wholesale. I did one for a local theater director. So easy!

Do you have to be careful to avoid any certain fabric type for the Easy Weed to not adhere? Thanks for the chair idea!

Good video, never thought I could do a chair! Thank you Do you think you could show how to do a ball cap if you don't have a hat/cap heat press?

***** You could always use the gloves that come with Hair Wands, you can buy them at beauty stores also. That'll help with protecting your hands and being able to hold the items that you are pressing.

What temperature are you running the press? The chairs we are working with are polyethylene fabric. When pressing, i am melting to the press if I use it for the full 8 seconds. Do I need to look for a Nylon Chair?

@TheRhinestoneWorld 8 жыл бұрын

+Darrell Parker Hey Darrell, I am not sure why we had not commented until now, I do apologize for missing this. A polyethylene fabric would be weaker under a heat press, so I would recommend a Nylon chair to do better. :) TRW Nick

Thanks for this tutorial! You guys do great work!! Just a quick question, is there a certain heat press vinyl that you recommend? Thank you!

@TheRhinestoneWorld 8 жыл бұрын

+Justin Greene Hey Justin, we would recommend EasyWeed as it is the thinnest so it isn't going to crack on you. You can also do EasyWeed Stretch. :) TRW Nick

+TheRhinestoneWorld Sweet, thank you!! I tried a practice run on my cheap fold-up chair with the t-shirt vinyl that came with my plotter but I think the chair is way to plastic and the vinyl didn't adhere great in all places. You guys are awesome!!!

@TheRhinestoneWorld 8 жыл бұрын

Aww, thank you! I would check out some Siser EasyWeed that we offer, because that vinyl is pretty wonderful. :) TRW Nick

Can we use Siser Glitter HTV to a folding chair, or would it crack . I seen you did it in regular Siser vinyl . Thanks in advance

Hello! What kind of folding chair is it? I would probably recommend decal vinyl. That can be found here: therhinestoneworld.com/Main-Category/Sign--AND--Decal-Materials/Subcategory-1/FDC-Sign-Vinyl. - TRW Richard

Hey! We actually haven't done that, we can certainly put it in the rounds for a lab, but it may be quicker if you did it and let us know so that we can have a stockpile of info. :) TRW Nick

I have a kids chair, made of "100% polyethene foam pad" would you recommend using heat transfer or vinyl?

@TheRhinestoneWorld 6 жыл бұрын

Hello, It it a hard surface? We don't recommend heat pressing on plastics like that, because they have a low burning temperature. FDC Sign Vinyl should work if it is a harder surface. TRW, Grant

@morganlutz8497 6 жыл бұрын

TheRhinestoneWorld I would say it was a hard surface, but I ended up trying it, kept it at a low heat and it seemed to adhear pretty great. Thanks for the video!
