Workflow and equipment to plan for
Design the badge, print, cut, prepare the heat press and complete the specified double heat-press process. Confirm compatible media, any adhesive requirements, the cutting method and pressing settings.
Check finish, adhesion, flexibility and wash performance on the actual fabric. Gel-effect and silicone-texture descriptions refer to the intended appearance and feel; they do not establish silicone material chemistry.
Have the cutter, heat press, media, inks and RIP requirements itemised. The brochure’s workflow illustrations do not establish equipment inclusions.
