Big Brandoh I got my sample pack yesterday....thanks so much for putting it together, the shirt looks awesome.....I have also wrestled with the pressure setting on my hpn heat press, I did the paper way, but I think I will give this way a trade. Love the channel, Keep up the great work!
Hey brother Thanks for all that you’re doing to share your knowledge, great info for the newbies. My daughter and I just received our heat press today, it’s just like yours. I was wondering why you don’t use the surepress dial to mark your pressure settings? Just curious. Thank.
Fam, I was finna buy the 15x15 with the sure pressure, after watching this, braddah no need fo ahh dat!! lol Love and light to you and yours bro!!! - Le Vasa
Awesome , I just got my heat press machine and used it today for the first time and I was wondering the same thing 😂, how do I know how to adjust my pressure, used the paper style , but I will definitely follow your way Big Brandoh 👊🏻you a mind reader 👍🏻😁good looking out
I have the same Hpn 15x15 auto . Brand new and learning. This info was needed. I'm using 50/50 tshrts and get a press box on my shirts. I'm looking for a videos helping with this issue. Any advice? Using transfer express. 360° medium pressure maybe? For 7 seconds. I feel like it needs longer or more pressure to make sure it sticks properly. But the press box is bad. Thanks so much
I’ve been told to press a 20 year on piece of vinyl for a jersey. The sender told me I should press at 3-4 bars of pressure. But what is 3-4 bars of pressure? Is that super high pressure ? Medium pressure,
Question brother, have you ever pressed on a 100% polyester shirt? If so, what heat and temp do you recommend? I have been getting scortch marks on the shirts that don't come off. ( The square outline from the press doesn't go away on the shirt even after wash/dry). Great info on all your vids
nah i rarely press on 100% polyester. i dont have an audience for it. but my guess is the heat is activating the pigment in the material. turns the pigment into a gas and thats why you are experiencing discoloration. how to fix it? im not too sure. i would contact who you got the transfers from and see if they have a work around for you.
Yo bro just got that sure pressure, this knob is hard as hell to turn. Is this normal because it's new? If you have an answer hook a brother up. Thanks
Got a question regarding lower platen cover you are using. How has your experience been? I am thinking about adding one. I am getting press marks on 50/50 gildan hoodies that dont wash out.
on my last press my lower platen cover lasted almost 10 years. its the same one that came with the press. its mainly to keep the rubber pad in place. press marks or discoloration on 50/50 garments happens when the heat activates the pigment in the polyester. i would try adjusting your heat and press time. this happens to me when i press heather colored shirts. like a burgandy heather and theres a small amount of polyester in the shirt. the burgandy ends up becoming a dark burgandy if i press too hot for too long.
Hi! If you have screen printed transfers that say to press at medium pressure at a certain temperature - if you press at firm pressure instead, do you reduce the temp or reduce the amount of time you have the press down? Thanks for all the tips!
What up bruh! I just got the same hpn heat press. Got a question for you. What # do you set your “sure pressure” to for t shirts & hoodies? I have mine set at 10 but the auto open doesn’t work correctly. Should I set it to a higher #?
Hey Big, Man I got a question. It seems we have the same clamshell press (HPN Signature Series 15x15 w/pull out bottom). My shop started picking up a bit and wanted to upgrade my press. I bought me a HIX 15x15 auto open and it arrived Friday. Man this thing is all there! So I set it up and got it ready to work and fired it up today (Sunday) for a few orders. Here is where things get weird. They say you are not supposed to heat test with a infrared heat gun. They say that will measure the heat coming off the platen first before it gets to the platen itself. Just to see I set the new HIX at 330 F and when I shoot it it reads 104-109 F (top platen). I then throw a garment on it and press it for 15 sec. as soon as it comes up I shoot the garment and it reads 276 F. Now let me make it more interesting. I didn't want to press any orders with it if I wasn't sure she was calibrated right and getting to the right temps so I threw old trusty back up and did my work till I talk to HIX tomorrow. Get this, I have always been able to shoot my HPN Signature Series with the gun. I set it at 330 F and it reads with the gun at about 326 f. Shoot a garment after I bring her up and it reads 318ish only because it cools fast. I found one guy on YT that says it will show significantly different temps with a gun (clamshell) so the way to test it is put a Teflon sheet on the top platen like you did press it for 30 sec and shoot it right away when you open it. Welp that didn't work for me, the HIX showed lower 200's. Now I cannot find anywhere where people are shooting their clamshells with infrared guns and its reading like my HIX is. That one guy that I told you about on YT he shoots his and I think he has it set at 305 f and it shoots at 183.5 then he presses it for 30 sec and shoots it and gets a 307 F temp. The only thing I know what to do is get hold of HIX and ask about why it reads so low when you shoot it with a infrared gun but when I shoot my HPN press with the same gun it reads what I have it set at within a few degrees. I did order some Heat Press Temperature Test strips that should be here this week, that you lay on the bottom platen in all 4 corners and one in the middle and will tell you the temp. So, can you tell me your thoughts on this? Thanks Bro!
man i have no idea. my first guess was maybe its set to C and not F. or let it heat up and then level out after it beeps to see what its at. i dont know much about that HIX press. all i do is set the temp. let it heat up, once it beeps, i let it sit for another 5-10 min. then i shoot it and its where it needs to be.
Big Brandoh, its an eBay press. Bought a signature series from HPN, scheduled to be delivered Monday. But the temp on laser therm was 420. I will update as i got the same order again with same logo. I will see if its the same and will post here. I worked up in temp until it worked. The transfer would not peel at lower temps.
I had to do similar things with my sample pack transfers. But I’m thinking it’s the press and also have a signature series on the way. Good luck brother hope it works out well! ✊🏽
Also one more thing I followed your steps.. Is it normal for it to be kind of hard to pull back up after heat pressing. Or does that mean to much pressure.
Not helping me lol .. I will try again. When I turn the knob all the way down , the top clamp has like no room ..so I adjust it up and put my fingers just enough to see if they fit … I’m just trying to troubleshoot subbing on ribbon and getting ghosting … any other suggestions? Thanks for sharing your knowledge
I just got my heat press that is like yours. Do you ever have a hard time turning the pressure knob? Looking for tips on how to make it turn easier. Thank you.
i usually bring the top platen down like half way. not clamped down but also not fully upright. just hovering over the bottom plate. hold the handle with one hand and the other hand i use to adjust the knob. let me know if that works for you. thats how i do it
your max might be 40. i saw somebody elses press went to 65. mine stops at 53. these numbers are for your own reference. i would write down 40 as your max and then use that as your gauge of heaviest pressure.
Hello, I have a question about adjusting the heat press, I have a 15x15 like this, my top platen is loose and its isn't sitting even on the shirt vinyl when i press. Do you have a video on this?
I have an issue with my heat press machine Mpress 15x15 clamshell.. i had to calibrate my machine because it was off by 15 20 degrees and it was leaving heat marks on shirts. Even after doing thay, i prepress at 275 for 3 secs on a 100% cotton shirt and it still leaves a heat mark, sometimes it goes away n sometime it doesnt..ive tried lowering temo n pressure but still does the same.
on my press the max is 53 goin based off the sure pressure knob. as far as pound of pressure or psi. i have no idea. you would have to contact HPN and ask them
Not sure if it was on this same video that you mentioned this🤦🏽♀️ , but for the heat press do you recommend plugging it into the wall or getting an extension cord ? I recently got the craft pro and heard about shortages and what not and I live in an apartment so was wondering if it would be ok to not use an extension that’s 12gauge
You have the SurePressue device on your machine. Do you think this option is an advantage over your manual method? Meaning is the SurePressue device worth the money if I have the money to spend on it. I just don't want to waste money on a "novelty" option if I'm never going to use it.
if your just pressing T shirts... not needed. but if you are doing hoodies, crewnecks, jackets, t shirts, bags etc... the sure pressure is a life saver. being able to reference something like "press shirts at 50, press hoodies 37, press Nylon HTV on bags at 29, press masks at 52 but masks with mouse pads at 25 etc" that shit helps. since i got this press, its been a game changer for me. but if you are only doing shirts, its not a big need
that will be based on the company you use and what they recommend. example: if the htv company instructions say 350 for 10 seconds firm pressure. and you do that and it doesnt work, you have to adjust your settings. go a little hotter and try that and then a little hotter and try that and so on and so on. this cant be shown in video because all of our presses are different and it will ultimately be based on your own individual press and your own settings
THANK U BRANDOH UR MOVEMENT IS AWSOME IM FAIRLY NEW TO THIS AFTER SEING UR SIMPLE SET UP I WENT AND GRABBED MY SHIT AND ITS ON NOW TIME TO CREATE. THANKS MAN KEEP UR SHIT GOING GOD BLESS. I APPRECIATE UR VIDEOS ! IS THERE A SPECIFIC FEEL TO THE VINYL AFTER PRESSED THAT IM FEELING FOR . ?
not a feel but you wanna make sure it holds up in the wash. so press it, wash it and see what the results are. your going for longevity for your customers. making sure you can provide them with a quality print that wont mess up after one wash. feel me?
@@BigBrandoh ok awsome I understand u . the washes are important due to testing ur print and how it holds up. I grew up in East Los Angeles im out here in bullhead city az. Watching ur videos trying to get something going showing my 2 lil sons how to do this also ! Ive always had this idea but never moved on it till i seen ur simple set up. On a budget also thats some real shit. THANKS MAN. HIGHLY APPRECIATE IT. Ill be grabbing ur sample pack pretty soon THANKS. Waiting on my press from HPN to start at it. Gracias
@@BigBrandoh & Marisa, I have the 15x15 Craft Pro manual-clam from HPN, and no kidding to use heavy pressure, you will dislocate a shoulder or jerk your neck out of line to get the thing back open. I can shut it, opening it is the issue. So I bought a heavy wood desk that I'm going to try mounting it to, but until I get that desk sanded & carried inside, it's still on an end table that I do not want it mounted on. Do you think if I use medium pressure & then just press down on it myself at the same time, that would give it more heavy pressure, so I can get it back open without killing myself?

I had to use heavy pressure and temp at Like 425F for 2x4” supacolor For it to work. Customer loved product and just ordered a second order.
dammm are you using a laser thermometer to check your temp? 425 seems high as shit. supa wearable transfers instructions are 290-320. gahaaa
Big Brandoh, its an eBay press. Bought a signature series from HPN, scheduled to be delivered Monday. But the temp on laser therm was 420. I will update as i got the same order again with same logo. I will see if its the same and will post here. I worked up in temp until it worked. The transfer would not peel at lower temps.
outside of the heat, how heavy is the pressure? maxed that out too? might be able to scale back the temp back down to 320 and increase the pressure
I had to do similar things with my sample pack transfers. But I’m thinking it’s the press and also have a signature series on the way. Good luck brother hope it works out well! ✊🏽
I broke my heat press power cord..Can any power cord work? Would my Xbox power cord work? Or would that cord not be strong?
Also one more thing I followed your steps.. Is it normal for it to be kind of hard to pull back up after heat pressing. Or does that mean to much pressure.
yes its normal but if its too hard for you to pull up, back it off a little more to make it easier for you to open up.
I know this is old but I have the same press, and when i do heavy pressure, it is very difficult to get it open. any suggestions
Hey Boss. I ordered goof proof but want to do front and back logos. How do I go about not messing up the first print?
press one side, flip the shirt and press the other side. thats what i do
What clips/ magnets are you using for the Teflon at top of your press?
Papercode refrigerator magnet clips found on amazon. came in a pack of 10 or 12
Not helping me lol .. I will try again. When I turn the knob all the way down , the top clamp has like no room ..so I adjust it up and put my fingers just enough to see if they fit … I’m just trying to troubleshoot subbing on ribbon and getting ghosting … any other suggestions?

this video explains how i set the pressure on my heat press. if you have this same press, crank the knob down till it sits flat on the bottom platen.
What's up Big B. Quick question which one would you prefer cameo 4 or cricut explore air 2? Thanks bro
cameo. never used a cricut so im not sure of its good or bad. but i've used cameo's before and they get the job done
@@BigBrandoh gotcha. Appreciate the response. I've subbed because you keep it real. Keep on doing your thing bro.
What did you use magnets to hold teflon sheet on the press?
refrigerator magnet clips. check the amazon link in my description box
What pressure do you use for specialty vinyl like glitter or holographic?
i dont press too much specialty stuff but most vinyl i use medium to heavy pressure.

you have a pressure gage on your press is your heavy for shirts is it set on 7? I have the same press you have
my sure pressure gauge is set to 50
What happen if u get dots like a hole bunch in your logo what that mean heat pressed mark
I’d just like to know what the max pressure is that these things can exert.
on my press the max is 53 goin based off the sure pressure knob. as far as pound of pressure or psi. i have no idea. you would have to contact HPN and ask them

Check out the "Transfer Storage" video. i show what i use.
How do you gauge what time and temp to make up for the pressure??
time and temp is based on the recommended application instructions. pressure is usually always heavy.
Still rocking with you

Did you ever have issue with your part that the heat is being loose?
no never. even when you crank the pressure knob all the way down?
CAN U DO SOMETHING COVERING ALL 3 SPECIFICS TIME, HEAT, AND PRESSURE.. A LIL MORE ON TIME AND HEAT FOR HTV
that will be based on the company you use and what they recommend. example: if the htv company instructions say 350 for 10 seconds firm pressure. and you do that and it doesnt work, you have to adjust your settings. go a little hotter and try that and then a little hotter and try that and so on and so on. this cant be shown in video because all of our presses are different and it will ultimately be based on your own individual press and your own settings

power needs to be on for magnet to activate. the magnet keeps it closed
