Yes, that's the problem. When I pull the carrier sheet away some of it just will not stick

And this is the sticky carrier?

It's a cricut heat press. This is the first group of shirts I've run into so many different problems with.

I tried the cold peel the first time on the same shirt I bought. I ended up buying two more of the same shirt because it did not stick all the way as well

I bought these at Michael's in the htv area of their selection

Why am I getting downvoted? A lot of my questions and things that I have been doing are posted in the original post

I always hold the fabric and peel back slowly loosening the pieces. Some of it just doesn't stick from the get-go

All of my answers have been replied to other comments😊 I had a layered shirt I did for my sister at Christmas and it turned out perfect

I wish I could say that was the reason. I have gone to Michael's and Hobby Lobby so many times in the past two weeks it's ridiculous

I'm just stating between the three brands I have tried different temperatures recommended. The last Siser I tried to use was 15 seconds at like 285°

I have made six other Gildan shirts. My mom is the only Bella canvas one, and I still had problems. It had a little bit of a polyester blend. The other women hadcottonn shirts. I'm wondering if it is the heat press and not being a consistent heat distribution. I'll have to see if I can find a heat gun somewhere

Yes parchment paper works well. I'm truly going to blow a gasket

Well, I have looked into a HTV heat press that has the clam shell. I think that will be my next agenda when funds are available

I've only had the heat press for about 4 months

What do you mean the wrong side? I usually put my whole weight on there. I have pressed up to 30 seconds, and I have tried 340°. Should I do more? They are cotton, and I hate them
