Why is my transfer cracking or peeling?

Cracking/peeling is usually caused by one (or a mix) of these:

• Press settings (temp/pressure/time not quite right)

• Garment type (high-stretch fabrics can crack as they stretch beyond the print)

• Fabric coatings (water-repellent / “hydrophobic” coatings can resist bonding)

• Garment quality + shrinkage (cheap garments shrinking can stress the print)

• Under-pressing fine detail (small text needs better bonding + sometimes a warm/cold peel)

If you tell us the garment type + your press settings, we can help assist in troubleshooting.
