Hi Michael. Thank you for all of your very informative videos. I love them and your upbeat personality! Can I use this Siser Metal HTV on wood?

[@mrcraftypants]

Tracie Fitzgerald thanks so much! You’re so sweet!! I don’t see why you couldn’t use it on wood! That would be fun to try out! I would test a small piece on an extremely smooth piece of wood to see how it goes. Also be sure to wait until it’s completely cooled off before trying to remove the carrier sheet. 😊 I’d love to know how it turns out if you decide to try it! 😊

[@djsuretay1]

I’m learning a lot from you thanks question I tried to download the guide but I was unable to what can I do for the fix

[@cherylroberts1407]

I love that!! Do you prewash your shirts?

[@Carlamng90]

Thank you for all your videos. They are all very detailed. I’m a newbie here, what type of vinyl would you recommend for shirts, and car decals?

[@mrcraftypants]

You’re so welcome! I love helping! 😊❤️ For car decals, you’ll want permanent adhesive vinyl! For shirts you’ll need HTV (heat transfer vinyl). 😊 I have a list of all of my top recommendations for brands of vinyl, etc. here: www.mrcraftypants.com/bestcricutproducts/

[@hr1722]

Great explained. I just got one question. You stated that it is better to let it hang dry. Is it possible to iron the shirt after it is washed and dried?

[@vcancer]

This was a cool video. I see a lot of people wearing gold or silver printed shirt on black and love that look. I'm a Horror fanatic and I'm planning on making my own series of horror-inspired shirts for sale and plan on using gold or silver and maybe different color shirts like deep red/BLOOD RED, or deep Orange or maybe midnight blues. The concept is coming together in my head and plan to lay it down on paper and pen first before turning them into SVG for cutting on the Cricut. I'll let you know how it comes out.

[@charchambora5991]

I am so glad I found you, not that you were lost Lol. You always explain like I just unboxed my machine. Thank you so much.

Great tutorial. Can you use iron on vinyl on slate coasters?

Can I layer with this vinyl? Will it bubble after more than one press ?

Hi Itala! Welcome to the Cricut world! Just a forewarning... it’s addicting! lol! One of my favorite brand/types of vinyl is StarCraft HD. All of the colors come in both glossy and matte, it’s super easy to weed, the quality is amazing, it will lasts 5-6 years outdoors and it’s extremely affordable. 😊 www.651vinyl.com/starcraft-hd-permanent-adhesive-vinyl/?partner=339438
