The HTVRONT Heat Press is an iron press that makes it quick and easy to apply heat vinyl to fabric surfaces for custom designs like T-shirts and Tote Bags. It measures 10″ x 10″ to cover large areas for even heating in one go (so you don’t need to move the iron), the handles stay cool, it heats up quickly, has adjustable temperature settings and an auto off for safety. It also comes with a safety base to protect surfaces when you’re not using the Heat Press
Using an electronic die cutting machine like a Cricut or Silhouette you can create and cut out your own designs or purchase images to cut from iron on vinyl.
The machine comes with a canvas storage bag and was the perfect item to test for my first project. Since I love Harry Potter I used a few images cut with my Silhouette Portrait from the HTVRONT Silver Glitter Vinyl. Don’t forget to flip images, especially letters. After cutting the images I weeded the design by pealing away the unwanted parts of the vinyl (having a pick tool helps with this), leaving the designs on the clear plastic background sheet. I heated up the Heat Press, ironed the bag so the surface was smooth and placed the image face down on the bag. Overtop I placed a piece of baking paper (you can also use a Teflon sheet) and then pressed the images for 20 seconds (the vinyl you use should have recommended heat temperatures and times) and then placed the Heat Press into the safety base and let my project cool for 45 seconds. After cooling the backing paper peeled off easily and left me with some amazing glittery designs! I’m so happy with the results! My designs transferred cleanly on the first try and it was super fast and easy!
