Heat Set Directions:
.

Ovens: 
.

 Preheat oven to 250 degrees F. Place aluminum foil in your oven to protect article from grease. Place article in oven for 5 minutes. Remove and let cool. If you wrap the article in foil, allow a further 5-10 minutes in the oven for the heat to permeate the foil. .

Irons: 
.

 You will need to experiment to discover the correct heat setting for your iron. Prepare a small sample strip using similar material and apply your colours. Start your iron at the polyester setting and iron the sample strip. Keep increasing the temperature until you reach the point where your sample colours begin to change or shift. Once you know this limit, back off slightly and mark your setting. Use this for future heat setting on similar fabric. .

Note:
.

Heat setting by tumble dryer is not recommended.
