Pressing Issues

When pressing my artwork I sometimes notice areas that should be a solid color are coming out splotchy or faded looking.

Normally when you see areas that look either splotchy or faded when they should be a solid color it is due to there being not enough pressure applied during the pressing process. The pressure needs to be increased so when the heat is applied it will cause more of the ink to be released from the paper and transferred to the item you wish to have the artwork on.
