excess powder on screen transfer
« on: August 30, 2021, 10:28:31 AM »
Good morning,
I tried this for a customer and they mostly look great and are holding up really well. I have a couple that have what looks like excess transfer powder around the paper. I have been shaking and flicking the back of the page before running it down the dryer. Anyone have any tips on how to avoid this? Should I press longer? Hotter? Cooler?
Thanks.
When you dig grave will you make it shallow so that I can feel the rain?

We get that sometimes, but it normally it just dust right off or comes off after a second pressing
Life is like Kool-Aid, gotta add sugar/hardwork to make it sweet!!

If it doesn't all shake off, you can also carefully brush the open areas with a soft paint brush.
