I don’t think that will work as there isn’t enough surface area for the htv to stick to and it might melt the material of the mesh when you apply the heat.
Yes! Without the tape and the curve of the hat, I don't think it would stay down and I think it would move when I tried to iron it down. Hope that helps!
I personally Thermoflex heat transfer vinyl, but have also used Siser Easyweed too. All products I used are linked in the post. Hope this answers your question.
Hello Foxy, great video, awesome detail, love it. I want to know what vinly do i use for mesh poly foam caps? Would it be everyday mesh iron-on vinyl? Also what vinyl type is great for polyester caps, and lastly what vinyl is good for PVC material like the clear backpack, thank you so much, i appreciate if you can get back at me, thanks.
I use the brand Thermo-Flex for my HTV (Heat Transfer Vinyl), you can only iron on the vinyl on the fabric part, not the mesh part. You could use the same vinyl for polester hats. Clear backpacks you have to be careful with as it can melt. Depending on what you are doing with it, it might be better to use a 651 vinyl, which is just a permanent vinyl, instead of a heat transfer vinyl. Hope this answers your questions. Good luck with your project!
@@FoxysDomesticSide Thank you very much Foxy, much appreciated. I see alot of different type of Thermal Flex. Yea, using heat on mesh might burn, i have a sheet in between so i guess it help and try not to press too long on the heat to the mesh. Haven't tried clear backpack yet. I'll check 651 vinyl permanent, thanks.
You can use an iron if you don't have a heat press/Easy Press. I find that my iron does not get hot enough to make the HTV stick as well and I have to press super hard and for a WAY longer time, a minute or longer, instead of 20 seconds. Easier for me to use the way bigger Easy Press.
