Re: Heat Pressing Flock

I have just printed a T Shirt for the first time using MDP Pro Flock. Followed the manufacturers instructions, looks good so far, but does anyone think it is a good idea to press again after the cool peel, or could it damage the flock?
Thanks.

NO. not good idea at all. I use to do that and flock always lost the velvet feel. all i do is pre press garment properly. then press flock with medium/low pressure. and then peel cold. very cold :)
