MISS LADY! LISTEN! You saved a me. I was making a shirt for a friend to wear to her daughter’s lacrosse game and I realized I had the wrong number the second I put the press down! IT CAME RIGHT OFF! No fuss! I did not have time to go back to the store. I CANT THANK YOU ENOUGH!
You just saved a project I thought was ruined! Tried the shirt in the iron method with the flat tweezers and it worked PERFECTLY. Thank you so much for saving a tee I figured was headed for the trash.
I used the iron method to distress a comfy sweatshirt with an HTV that was a little too perfect for my taste. While on the iron, I used an emory board along the edges of the iron to create random lines and tweezers to take off the bits of vinyl it created. Worked great! Thanks for the iron tip!
AMAZING!! Cori YOU saved the day and my tote project!! I took a shot at carefully using my mini press on high (as the iron method) with flat tweezers and worked within minutes! 🤩
Thank you! I omitted a letter on my daughters Halloween costume at 10:30 the night before… with NO backup!! Whew! The first method worked great and she will be a CEILING FAN for Halloween rather than the CELING FAN she will never know about! 😂
This video came a perfect time! It appears that both methods remove the adhesive residue as well as the vinyl. On a tote bag I have, part of the vinyl came off - leaving residue. Would either of these methods help remove the (adhesive) residue or will it come out during rewashing? Thanks!
i have done this and and it removed it! although now there’s a like an adhesive type thing stuck on the material so you can see where the vinyl has been. how can i fix this?
I have found that there are a handful of vinyls that leave that adhesive! You can try and pull it up in the same way. You can try washing (don't dry it!). You can also try a lint roller or rubber eraser.
Yes, though I find the easypress more difficult since you sort of have to hold it while trying to remove the HTV. The iron sits on the table which makes it easier.

You are so welcome!

Bahaha! I am so glad you were able to fix the problem!! That is an AMAZING idea for a Halloween costume!
Wow!! Amazing!! I was searching a way to remove iron-on kids name from outgrown clothes before donating them! I will try this and give an update ❤
Glad it was helpful!
This needs way more views and way more likes. It worked in about 3 seconds. Thank you this!!!!!
Yay! I agree, it needs way more views and likes LOL!

Both took my residue off, but I think the VLR might be easier for total residue removal. Good luck!
@@HeyLetsMakeStuff thanks so much
Hi Cori. I just found your channel. Do you think either of these methods might work with a nylon running jacket? Thank you!
I’m not sure! I feel like the nylon isn’t as stretchy as something like cotton, so it might be a little harder to use.
i have done this and and it removed it! although now there’s a like an adhesive type thing stuck on the material so you can see where the vinyl has been. how can i fix this?
I have found that there are a handful of vinyls that leave that adhesive! You can try and pull it up in the same way. You can try washing (don't dry it!). You can also try a lint roller or rubber eraser.
Can you use the cricket heat press if you don’t have an iron?
Yes, though I find the easypress more difficult since you sort of have to hold it while trying to remove the HTV. The iron sits on the table which makes it easier.
What setting would you use to remove vinyl from a soccer jersey?
I'd start on a lower setting and work up to a higher setting if the fabric can handle it!
@@HeyLetsMakeStuff thank you!
I tried it out and I did about 3/4 setting !
Made sure to have my gloves on just in case!
What about the left over adhesive on the clothes after removing the vinyl?
Mine usually comes up. You can also try and pull that up with your tweezers or something like Goo Gone might work.
If you've got that iron on the hottest setting, how is it not burning the cotton fabric?
Cotton is usually one of the highest settings on the iron. I haven't had a problem with it burning.
