I have the same hat press. I found out that the dial may say 300 degree's but when I used a infrared laser to check the temps, it was really around 270F. Since I've made the change and run my temp to 330 @ 30 seconds, my patches are staying on. I'm placing my patches across the front seam too. I buy my leather from HYDBOND.

@laserengravingwithmatt 8 месяцев назад

@jesserodriguez1904 7 месяцев назад

are you getting an outline of the center seam in your patch?

@mlorenzana71 7 месяцев назад

You have to take the orange top off and make sure that the plate is laying against the plate that you see. Sometimes they're separation between the actual heating plate inside underneath the cap. It should be right up against the other one so it's even heat. Otherwise you're going to get a cooler temperature. Very easy fix

@pewpewpewengraving Месяц назад

Hey Matt, hope all is well with you. Just a quick question on the JDS patches. Used about 125 of them so far and they have been absolutely awesome. But, I just received a batch that the paper backing keeps falling off of them, where the others had to be peeled when you get ready to heat press them. The ones that the backing is falling off are not adhering at all. It's like the adhesive is not melting. Have you had any issues like this and, if so, any ideas on solutions? I'm using the orange automatic Vevor press set at 300 for 30 seconds. That setting has worked for over 100 hats before. Any suggestions would be much appreciated and thanks for your videos!!

@DocMcTrussy 5 месяцев назад

Matt, question for you. I see all of the patches you are doing in this vid are off to the side of the seam running down the center of the hat. Is this to avoid a "seam lump" down the center of the patch? How would a hat look if you did put the patch dead center, using this press? Would the seam imprint through the patch? I ask because I am on the verge of buying this press, and in my new business so far, people seem to want the patch centered.

@laserengravingwithmatt 5 месяцев назад

Everyone wants them on the side. I had one company do it in the center and you can tell a little bit but after they wore it you couldn’t see it.
