USING FOREVER MULTITRANS
1. For MULTITRANS FULL COLOUR - Print your artwork/design with your CMYK / CMYW laser printer 2. For MULTITRANS GOLD/SILVER - Print your artwork/design with your CMYK / CMYW laser printer in SOLID BLACK or SOLID WHITE (for the GHOST). 3. Remember to MIRROR the image. 4. Cut your print smaller than your product and fix to your product with heat tape
NB: DO NOT STICK HEAT TAPE OVER YOUR PRINT AS IT WILL NOT ALLOW ENOUGH HEAT TO GO THROUGH and your print will not transfer in that spot.
Have your silicone pad and multi-meter ready as you will need it to press some products

TRANSFER TO WOOD
Preheat your flat press to 160°C / 320°F and set the timer to 120 seconds Make sure your wood item is not too thick. The press must be able to close. Cover the entire wooden surface with the Multitrans paper to avoid the edges of the paper leaving marks on the wood item Place the silicone pad over the wood item Use medium to heavy pressure Close press Remove the Multitrans paper immediately from the wood item while hot Press for 5 seconds with silicone paper
TRANSFER TO PENS (PVC HARD PLASTIC)
* PLASTIC ITEMS NEED TO BE OF GOOD QUALITY AND MUST NOT CONTAIN SILICONE. TEST THE PRODUCT FIRST. DOES NOT WORK RELIABLY ON ALL PLASTIC ITEMS AND PENS
Use PVC (hard plastic) (OR recycled paper pens). Use 150°C for 20 seconds (guideline) (Multi Pen Press) Use SOFT pressure (guideline only). Cut out and attach the print to the pen with heat tape (the heat tape must not cover any part of the design itself). Place the pen on the bottom slot (for thin pens that sink into the bottom slot, place a piece of nomex pad in the bottom slot for support). Close the press and make sure the top rubber pad lines up with your print to cover it completely when press is closed. Press the ENTER button to start the timer. When the timer alarm sounds, open the press and remove the pen. Let the pen cool down completely. Remove the heat tape and the Multi-trans paper. To make the print scratch resistant, we recommend the use of our Muggit Varnish spray to cure the print. Please follow the application instructions on the can.
