What You Need

instructions

Step 1. Get Your Heat Press Ready

Turn on your heat press. We recommend pressing all of our products at 385°F / 195°C. Be sure to lay a piece of protective paper on the bottom of the press.

Step 2. Prep Your Bookmark

Remove any film that may be on the surface of the bookmark. Clean off the bookmark with a cleaning cloth, all purpose cleaner, or a can of compressed air.

Step 3. Pair the Transfer With the Bookmark

Lay the transfer down on a flat surface with the printed image facing up. Place the white side of your bookmark face down, on top of the transfer, and line it up. Take two pieces of heat tape and secure the bookmark to the transfer.

Step 4. Let’s sublimate!

Place the transfer and bookmark into the heat press with the transfer on top. Lay another piece of protective paper on top. Confirm that the heat press is at the correct temperature. Pressing times are below.
