Application notes:
Place a sheet of protective paper between the handles of the tote bag when pressing to prevent accidental sublimation blow-through to the other side of the tote. Take care to place your image so it fully covers the bottom area of the tote. You may want to use foam or a piece of Nomex to puff out the seam area to get full coverage.
