What is Press-Art™?
Press-Art™ is made by processing your art and creating a base layer for it. The base layer is an adhesive which is activated with heat. The top layer is digitally printed by a huge printer.
The look and feel to Press-Art is similar to a screen print, with the stretchiness of a vinyl. It’s made to withstand the elements and bring your designs to life.
How do I order Press-Art™?
We wanted to make the ordering process as easy as possible. If this is your first time using Press-Art, we recommend you order one of our Bulk Sheets. The bulk sheets give you the freedom to test different types of images, logos, sizes and styles.
If you already know what dimensions you want, then you can order our pre-cut Press-Art. There is a small minimum to order this way, but it removes the guesswork out of cutting it yourself.
To upload your art you can use our designer tool or simply upload your art files. Checkout our How-To section for more details.
What’s the difference between Single Sheets and Bulk Sheets?
The single sheet is perfect for the designs you know you need to stock up on. For instance, say you want to order prints for your t-shirt collection, you can quickly choose the dimension and have them shipped pre-cut so you can store away and grab when needed.
But if you’re doing a one time job, maybe for a client or your sampling for a collection, then a bulk sheet works great for this. We recommend using bulk sheets when you’re ordering a lot of random designs.
What supplies or equipment do I need to use Press-Art™?
The beauty of Press-Art is that all you need is something hot. This means you can start with an iron! (Don’t believe us - watch this)
To improve production and end results we highly recommend upgrading to a heat press. Any heat press that can keep consistent heat works best.
Can I use Press-Art™ on any type of garment / fabric?
Press-Art works on pretty much any type of fabric. It has been tested on cotton, polyester, cotton/poly blends, nylon, denim, suede, hemp, hats, bags, leather, and more. The art is in the adhesive, as long as you can heat it up, it will stick!
Fabrics that are thin we recommend you adjust the amount of pressure and heat being applied. Go light pressure, slightly lower temp (290°F) and this should prevent burns/ marks to the fabric. Remember to ALWAYS do a test press on new products you try.

How durable is Press-Art™?
Press-Art is EXTREMELY durable when applied correctly. If you experience issues, that means it was applied incorrectly. We have been testing Press-Art since the summer of 2022 and are approaching 50 washes on a variety of products. All of which are holding up strong! At this rate we estimate the t-shirt will go bad before the print does.
We have also been running physical stress tests on sports players such as football, baseball and track. Press-Art is coming for the win!
