FOREVER Flex-Soft is a revolutionary new way of printing single-color or metallic self-weeding designs without any need for a vinyl cutter or plotter! This two-paper system uses a colored foil transparency-like sheet (printable) that is combined with a B-paper for adhesion, for transferring one-color designs easily and quickly. Self-weeding Flex Soft allows for far greater detail possibilities than is possible with cuttable heat transfer vinyl materials.

Settings on Printer:
- Needs to be set Paper Type to Transparency/Glossy setting
- Turn up the toner so you maximize the amount of toner that comes out of the printer
- Print on the matte side of the material (testing is recommended on regular paper to see how your printer prints)

- Toner Density is the best and put toner at the maximum dark
- Pressing Part A&B Paper: Swing Away Heat press is the press that is recommended
- If using a Clam Shell please make sure there is as much solid pressure as possible and that the bottom platen is always hot for the product to work
- Pressing when you Printed on Side A: Sheet A always goes down first. Put this product with the glossy side down & the artwork image up. Put the Forever Sheet B paper on top of this with the Forever written part facing up. You will realize that this paper is a little smaller than the Sheet A, which is what you want as the adhesive will smudge out a little onto Sheet A when pressed. Sheet B is ALWAYS on top of Sheet A
