Always anchor the transfer. Heat tape and Pro Spray make it easy to align and secure the printed transfer to hard and soft substrates for consistent, ghost-free results. Ghosting is a result of the printed transfer shifting/moving during the heating process. When applying Pro Spray, it’s wise to spray over a large trash can or dedicated cardboard box to prevent a sticky work area.
