It will get the colours working right, not sure about your blotchy problem though. My advice is ditch the inks you've got and get some that you know you can keep a constant supply of.

OK.. probably a really stupid question lol.. and probably nothing to do with it at all.. but is the paper slightly damp prior to printing ??

The paper should not be damp prior to printing either in the printer or heat press. Wait until the ink has dried before pressing - this could be an issue with your ink or paper - hard to tell. I would get in contact with the person you bought the set up from and find out which inks were in the system, and where they got them from. If you can't get any more of this make/type of ink, then you are wasting time and money going ahead, as you will be starting again from scratch when your inks run out and you have to refill with another make of ink.
