Can't Peel Backing Paper Off My Transfer

If you have allowed the image to cool for several minutes, re-iron spots that are lifting up (with the backing paper still on) for 30-40 seconds.  After ironing, place the garment in the freezer for 2 minutes.  Remove from the freezer and try again to peel the backing paper.

If you are having trouble peeling off the backing paper (the paper with the Avery logo), try slightly tearing the edge (just the paper only) to help start the peeling process.

  • First, grip the edge of the transfer and very gently bend the sheet until the backing paper tears slightly.
  • The transfer may stretch a little but SHOULD NOT tear if only gentle force is applied.
  • Remove the paper backing starting at the tear.

Please contact our Care Center if these steps don't resolve the issue.
