Now there is also the easypress mini that will work great for projects like these.

Heat transfer vinyl on mug not sticking.

Transfer not sticking to the garment. This is the side we want to cut on make sure to always place the shiny side down onto your cutting mat. When too much pressing happens on a design it is almost as if the adhesive gets completely burned off. If easyweed is heat pressed too long or pressed at too high of heat it will not stick to the garment.

Sometimes this can cause issues with heat transfer vinyl sticking. We don t want to cut on this side. You create a decal but only some of the letters stick onto the transfer tape while the rest are left behind on the backing paper. This is why you need the heat to apply so typically htv is only going to work with a material.

On the other hand if easyweed is not pressed long enough or at too low of heat it will also not. Htv or heat transfer vinyl is not intended to be used on ceramic glass mugs or any type of substrate other than something that will allow the htv to melt into it. If you need shirts that won t shrink purchase preshrunk shirts to prevent it. Your vinyl is not sticking to your transfer tape.

The shiny side is a clear plastic carrier sheet that holds the heat transfer vinyl in place. Your best option is to not pre wash garments. Now if you are going to hand wash your mugs you can probably use either adhesive vinyl or heat transfer vinyl and any of the application methods mentioned. I will say my favorite application method for the heat transfer vinyl on a mug was the mini iron.
