Here are the steps:

1. Set up your artwork in Print Optimizer Software and print on the "A" sheet of the Forever Laser Dark paper.

2. Lay the "A" sheet down on your heat press with the "B" sheet on top. Cover with a finishing sheet and press! Please make sure to check the box your Forever paper came in for pressing instructions as they may vary.

3. When the timer is up on your heat press, remove the top finishing sheet and start pulling the "B" sheet from the "A" sheet in a slow and steady motion. This is called the marrying step, in which the adhesive from the "B" sheet is sticking only to the toner on the "A" sheet.

4. Trim the transfers to remove any excess adhesive.

5. Prepress the balloon if needed. Then place your transfer on the balloon in the position desired. Add a finishing sheet on top and press!

6. Once the timer is up, set the balloon aside to cool.

Note: While setting aside to cool, this is a great time to prepress or to apply a transfer to another balloon.

7. After the balloon is cooled off, slowly peel the transfer off in a rolling motion.

8. Apply a finishing press if you want a more "matte" look.

Now you're done! In just a few simple steps, you can create custom Mylar balloons for any occasion!

Plus, after a quick online search, we found that balloons like these retail for about $15 to $25 each.
