3 if you ve already ruined one shirt keep using it to experiment.
There are black spots on shirt after heat transfer vinyl.
Check for instructions for the vinyl you are using and make sure all of your settings are spot on.
Don t worry about this.
Pressing or ironing for too long can have the same effect.

If you are seeing a second version of your transfer like a shadow slightly to the side of your image you are experiencing what is known as ghosting.
Ghosting occurs when the sublimation transfer paper shifts during the sublimation process such as when you open or close your heat press.
Avoid this issue by pre pressing your shirts before applying the transfer.
Simply close the heat press for 3 5 seconds.
This is actually good.
I don t know about you but i hate wasting supplies especially heat transfer vinyl.
