AlbaChem Heat Transfer Vinyl Remover for Fabrics, 20fl. oz

Good quality it’s good for dtf or vinyl remover only price little hight

Working good with thick HTV, other delicate vinyl just melting on the fabric

Pt 1 - This product works exceptionally well. I tried it as you see in this video on a thicker sweatshirt. That is a pretty nice material and the iron on was pretty new and it came off incredibly easily like a sticker and barely any glue if any stayed on the sweatshirt after peeling the iron on off. I did try it with several other shirts of different fabric types, fabric age, and iron on age, and I can definitely say that this product does do the job, how hard it will be to remove all of the iron on and glue residue does depend on how old/quality of the iron on and how old/quality of the fabric. Based on that it varies how much time I would let the solvent stay on the fabric/letters before I started peeling it off – on the sweatshirt I needed to put it on the back of the fabric stretch it out and then let it sit for maybe about 2 to 5 minutes and the iron came off just like a sticker without any/barely any residue left on the sweatshirt. However, for older shirts with pretty old irons, it was more difficult to remove the iron on as the top of the iron on with the coloring came off in little tiny particles so at that point, you would want to use the solve to remove the iron on in the glue, and then it would need a wash with a sweatshirt, however with the nice material and newer iron on, it came off incredibly easily, and I didn’t even need to wash it afterwards because the solving completely evaporated and I was able to get off all the glue, including any residue by following the instructions on the bottle – aside from instead of putting the solvent on a rag to remove any residual residue from the front of the garment, after I removed the majority of the iron on, I put additional solvent directly on the glue on the top of the sweatshirt and used a rag to wipe it off, and it wiped off pretty easily. wishing I could include several videos in one post so I’ll be doing multiple posts to get all the information I found while using this product.

VLR definitely helps in removing the vinyl lettering with ease. Works all the time!

I followed the directions on the can, and the factory-applied HTV popped right off in one piece. (Soak down the backside of the HTV, wait about 15 seconds, stretch the fabric to release the HTV, peel off any part that didn't release.) Then I ran it through the wash right away to get the smell out. The AlbaChem didn't harm the fabric or the printed pattern underneath the HTV, and left no adhesive residue. Expensive, but an easy 5 stars for doing exactly what it claims with less than a minute of total work.

First time using this product, but the effect is really very good. I managed to remove 80% of the sticker glue on one of the T-shirt on first try. I am going to try once again to remove the balance adhesive glue. Just to share, do not cut the holes too big, use a sharp screw driver to poke a small hole will do, easier to control when use. Excellent product!

So, every person makes mistakes and when I started making things, I would say "oh, well...just shows it is handmade" since I was just learning and what I made was given away anyways. When I got serious, I made a logo and jumped in with both feet. Well, I got to thinking about the logo after making a shirt for a teacher. Logos are meant to show who made an item and hiding it wouldn't be doing that. And my logo was a little "not kid friendly". I went in search on how to remove HTV. I use Siser Easy Weed HTV and they themselves recommended this product. Now don't get me wrong, I tried the other tricks first like reheating it and they didn't work for me. Fast forward to now. I made an error in a paid for product and it had to be fixed. There was no scraping this as it was a big piece. I bit the bullet and pulled out everything I needed to fix that I had been storing and jumped in with both feet. I was a little nervous about the product after reading some of the reviews on it and similar products and had been putting off using it. But this had to be fixed. Read the directions and then said wait, what happens when I reapply the HTV? Will this product not make it adhere? Lucky for you, I'm a super sleuth. I found the number and called. Here are my tips after using it: 1. It is for HTV (heat transfer vinyl) - NOT screen prints 3. Use well ventilated area (does have a slight chemical odor) 4. Wear gloves if you have them (dried out my fingertips) 5. I only punched a tiny hole in the top to get a more controlled drip for small jobs 6. Drip onto a q-tip for small or delicate work (like removing just one letter) 7. I placed old toweling thickly under image to protect work surface and other parts that weren't being removed 8. Work from back out 9. Saturate and then do it again 10. Stretch fabric if possible, it helps make HTV release 10.5. If you can't stretch due to location like when removing a typo, flip over and use q-tip to soak and pick at spot 11. Flip over and image should peal right off 12. If residue remains, you can add more solution to right side once all vinyl is gone 13. Allow to completely air dry, solution evaporates (this is what I was told by company) 14. Reapply HTV once area is dry. (If you are going to wash it, don't use fabric softener and air dry. Fabric softener can cause HTV to not adhere properly, rules for HTV application found online) Picture timeline (sorry out of order, got messed up when loaded): a) tiny hole in can top I made with tiny nail (don't use anything hot, it is flammable) b) image flipped inside out over cloths c) clean sleeve ready for new logo d) image after fabric stretching, note the wrinkles e) image after saturating twice, you can see the image isn't as flat f) old wash cloths, I did do a neon green and a dark blue before this white shirt and you can see no color bleed g) image before removing h) image just peeling off
