Cut the LAMINA (LAMINA 4478/6), and apply it on the treated area with pattern facing
upwards, press at 120°C for about 15-20 seconds wit h pressure set at 40 kg/cm2.
Allow the fabric to cool down before peeling off the transparent back side of the film.
UNITRANS and LAMINA
Cut the UNITRANS (UNITRANS 581-XH) film to the pattern required and apply it with
the glue-side towards the fabric.
The glue transfers to the fabric by hot pressing at temperatures above 120°C for about
5-10 seconds and pressure set at 40 kg/cm2.
Allow UNITRANS and fabric to cool down before peeling off the transparent film.
Afterwards apply the LAMINA (LAMINA MO, faced upwards) covering all the transferred
