I own a custom apparel shop in canton,Ohio and I make customs daily also I do brand fulfillment jobs as well as sublimation on many different products I love what I do for a living been at it for almost 3yrs and walked away from my full time job to get into the business , it was A great paying job but had some serious set backs, and I was not happy but after being able to work myself from out of my basement into brick and mortar it was the best decision ever Now I cant stop smiling because of the path I chose and when I see videos such as this ,its so inspiring to me !!!!!!!!!Keep being Great !!!!!!!!!!!!

Will I be able to use a leather patch on a tshirt? And use a regular swing arm press?

[@StahlsTV]

Yes, there are application instructions on the product pages for heat presses with top heat only. If a garment will washed consistently, you may want to consider faux leather. www.stahls.com/stahls-flexstyle-emblems

Will this machine work if I want to put multiple patches around the hat?

If you have a cloth silk screened ragged/grundge design to add to a hat, is there adhesive that can be purchased to apply to the back of the design, then heat pressed to the hat?

[@logs-productions]

Will the press work for securing a logo on the brim?

[@StahlsTV]

Our customers use this press for lots of different locations and substrates.

Can you apply a full color transfer on the blanket patches..?? Rather than sublimation..??

I need help. Every single time, I get the message OL on pressure. I have my target pressure set correctly. I have the top so loose, when I go looser, the knob falls off. Why have I had too much pressure warnings ever since I purchased this? It's frustrating.

[@jaysicc6864]

Hi Josh.... I currently own the Hotronix hat press to your right on the video...Can these applications be done with it or is this exclusive to the 360 IQ...thanks

[@StahlsTV]

You can use top heat only on some applications and typically best for unstructured caps made of cotton/twill so you don't crease or scorch. If you want to do dimensional and a full range of caps the 360 is going to be the best option.

[@radwafarouk2340]

What is best size of design for baseball cap

[@StahlsTV]

It depends on what your customer wants. A popular size is 2x2.5"

What no sew thermal adhesive would I use for a leather patch? I am really having a hard time getting an answer to this question. Thanks

Why start with hats first instead of t shirt?

[@StahlsTV]

Hats fit most people without needing sizing. Lots of people/businesses need more than one hat for teams, employees, etc. Which translates to more profit. But, ultimately it's up to you and what you would like to offer.

[@codygriffith5526]

What is the usual life span of these products. How long does the actual media last on the hat assuming people are going to be tough on them everyday

[@StahlsTV]

It will last a very long time. Years for sure. If applied with a quality patch and this press you cannot separate the logo from the hat without tearing the hat fabric.

[@StahlsTV]

There is a mold that needs created which is part of the set up. It's a one time fee and doesn't apply to reorders of the same artwork at the same size. Right now we have them running at a 50% off promo. There is still a ton of profit to be made at this price if you set an MOQ of 25 items to your client.

[@StahlsTV]

@@geoffcowan2384 Yes, this customer held the logos for future orders as it was a repeat customer. We also have a lot of customers that will order the 25 minimum and even service 10 hats, 10 polos and 5 jackets to one client. If you can design with smart logo sizing and sell apparel packages, you can make this feasible even for selling to very small businesses. We saw this a lot for employee appreciation gifts.
