I watched several other videos on using puff vinyl and yours in the most comprehensive with extra helpful tips--especially regarding the difference in carrier sheets between brands (the carrier sheets are not universally the shiny side which other videos fail to know and/or mention) and your troubleshooting solutions to get the perfect puff. The relatively short time to watch all your info is a bonus!

Thank you. Thank you. I could not get this vinyl to puff until your video. The board under the shirt made it perfectly smooth. Awesome tutorial!

thank u so much for specifying that shiny can be either top or bottom depending on what type of puff it is. the instructions inside my vinyl were wrong and i thought i was going. crazy... i watched a bunch of videos on youtube and they all said shiny side down. finally i found yours, i seriously thought i was being gaslit lol

Having a hard back is good thanks for the tip

Great video. Should I use the same temp/time with the Cricut Autopress? Should I also add a cutting board?

[mariemswiler]

Excellent video. I'm getting ready to use puff vinyl for the first time. Thank you for these tips!

What setting did you use for the easypress mini?

[BlairFalivene]

Do you have to use a specific font? Will a close together cursive show up or look like a big blob?

Hi. I did three shirts yesterday with Hobby Lobby puff htv. The first shirt turned out great with the color blue. On the next two shirts (same type of shirts), the puff wrinkled and pulled up. The puff htv was the same brand, but two different colors, pink and yellow. I used the same temperature and time on my heat press. Any ideas of what could have happened. I think these two shirts are ruined as it left a colored residue under where the letters were on the shirts. I'm wondering if the pink and yellow rolls of puff htv are bad. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated! Thanks in advance!!

As heatpress machine gives the equal amount of heat on every corner of design, but then too sometimes the puff doesn't seems to look the way we want then where might be the issue ? tried with different temperature but still seems doesn't get the result the way we want, does that mean the vinyl sheet has the problem ??

Also how to know that vinyl sheet is of good quality, and how we can we get to know that ?

[NoorInaya]

Does puff vinyl require that we also flip the shirt inside out and press from the other side, or does that overheat it? Just want to make sure I get it nicely adhered to the fabric.

Hello, what temperature and time do you recommend with Gildan 1800? please

[Lkirby]

How do layer the letter like the U.S.A. or the “dance” in your video

When you say face down do you mean down on the mat?
