Description
Siser® ColorPrint™ Hi-5 Print Matte solves the problem every decorator hits with heat-sensitive garments: it applies at 250°F (120°C) in 5 seconds. That is low enough and fast enough to keep performance polyester, thin knits, and delicate fabrics from scorching or discoloring — and it moves a lot more shirts an hour than a 15 second press.
It is a polyurethane film at 85 microns (3.35 mils) with a flat matte surface, printable on solvent, eco-solvent, and latex machines. CPSIA certified and OEKO-TEX® approved, so it is safe on children's apparel.

Application Instructions
- Print, contour cut, and weed the design.
- Mask with TTD Easy Mask or TTD High Tack Mask.
- Preheat the garment for 2–3 seconds.
- Press at 250°F / 120°C for 5 seconds with medium pressure — or 302°F / 150°C on heavyweight fabrics.
- Peel the carrier hot.
Test press on your specific garment first. Platen temperature often differs from the display reading, and that matters more at 250°F than it does on a hotter film.
