Product Information

Being able to do something doesn’t mean it's done at its best or that is going to last more than one wash! Once you think about it, it makes sense because you don't want any wrinkles or moisture before pressing, and preheating takes care of that for you. This will get rid of all wrinkles and smooth your surface if you sill see wrinkles, press again for another 5 seconds.Speaking from personal experience, I think the EasyPress 2 does a much better job on metallics, foils, and other special items that aren’t plain ol’ vinyl. The temperature can be more difficult to control with an iron, and using the EasyPress can help you get the exact right temperature and time needed to ensure results that last. The only iron-on project I’ve ever had fail was actually 3. Flat, stable surface. If you are considering an EasyPress 2 to start an online tee business, I would actually encourage you to look for a professional heat press. Plug and turn your EasyPress 2 on, set your temperature: Depending on what you are using you need to set the temperature accordingly, for this sample project the temperature should be 290°F (or 145°C) and the times to 30 seconds.

Layering materials is an easy way to add dimension to your heat transfer projects. (See my tutorial for how to layer iron-on vinyl for more!) In fact, there are many Cricut designs out there that are designed specifically with layering in mind. They have multiple layers that are placed on top or one another to create the final image. Didn’t it turn out amazing? I love all of the different textures with the matte, foil, and glitter finishes. EasyPress vs EasyPress 2: What Are the Differences?I cut my design from Design Space on my Cricut Maker. Make sure to always mirror your images when working with iron-on. Then I carefully weeded out the negative space using a weeding tool. Step 2: Prep mat, base material, and EasyPress
