S1 E2 How to Press Comic Books with a Heat Press Machine by KaptainMyke This episode features 1992 Marvel Comics AMAZING SPIDER-MAN #361 1st appearance of Carnage.
The technique shown uses 15" x 15" clam shell heat press machine. Basic comic book cleaning tips are included in video. When using just the provided silicone pad mat and metal platen on press machine, I would recommend 3 magazine backer boards above and below your comic book. Pressing damp books from a humidity tank chamber also requires 3 magazine sized backer boards during press. The magazine backer boards act as a clean sterile easily disposable surface for your Silicone Release Paper (SRP) and comic book to rest inside of. Using no such protection can cause accidental indentations, divots, fingerprints, dust particles and other debris that can imprint into the covers of your comic book. Always perform work on comic books in a clean and sterile environment. Our hands (and being human) causes all sorts of accidental damage to comics during and after pressing. When pressing a dry comic book using aluminum or steel plates you will only use 1 magazine backer board above and below book/srp. All supplies can be found in the provided links below:
