If your Iron-On does not stick after you've applied heat, use the information below to troubleshoot the issue.
The most common reasons for your images not sticking:
- Cricut EasyPress did not make full contact with the base material. This could be because of seams, zippers, or anything else that will cause you to not have a flat surface.
- Verify that your Cricut EasyPress is set to the settings recommended in our online Heat Guide (Cricut EasyPress and Cricut EasyPress 2) or the Cricut Heat app (for Cricut EasyPress 3).
- Be sure heat has been applied to the design for the recommended time.
- Re-touch the material with heat for an additional 10-15 sec.
Double check settings and surface:
- Be sure to use the recommended settings specific to the heat-transfer and base materials you're using. These settings are found in our online Heat Guide or Cricut Heat app (for Cricut EasyPress 3).
- Ensure you're using a firm, even surface. Ironing boards and plastic surfaces have some give in them that don't provide the firm, even surface needed for successful results.
