Once you have ironed the transfer it IS NOT possible to remove it.

Firstly you must cover the transfer with a normal piece of a4 (or larger depending on the size) paper and reverse the material... you then iron onto the back of the shirt (assuming the transfer is on the chest) for about 1:30 min, or until you are sure that the transfer is extremely hot... at this point you can reverse the shirt and peel off the paper... the transfer should peel off with it.

Now if you wish to remove the residue glue, run the shirt through a wash with some nappy san..

Happy Ironing!

Turn the shirt inside out, place a damp cloth over where the letters are and iron it. the heat from the other side loosens the glue. Use a butter knife to scrape off the letters. You'll have some glue residue left over. Using a spray bottle works well to remove the glue residue. It takes a few times to get everything off, but this is the best response for removing the glue residue.

You can buy iron-on transfers or you can make your own with an ink-jet printer and special iron on-transfer paper. You can buy the paper at a craft store or office supply store. Here is an example: http://h71036.www7.hp.com/hho/cache/344461-0-0-225-121.html A couple of things I have learned: Wash the shirts first. Remember that the design reverses when you iron it on to fabric, so when you print it, slect the "mirror-image" option. Pure cotton shirts work the best for me. I always use one extra piece of paper between the design and the iron so my iron does not get dirty.

How do you get a sticker off your car?

If they are fairly new they will peel right off but older ones might need some heat from a blow dryer or a heat gun, then remove the glue with paint reducer or nail polish remover ( probably the better choice ), you may have to work at it a bit to get it all, I find that gasoline on a rag will get it off as well. Use your fingers to peel up the decals not a blade of any kind. park car with the sun shining on letters, let them heat up. scrape letters off. use a safe slovent to remove residual glue. be aware that if letters have been on for any amount of time, he paint not covered by the letters will have daded and you will still see where the letters were you can usually fix that problem with a cut and polish

I removed and iron-on name and number from my shirt but there is still glue residue on the shirt How can I remove it without damaging the shirt?

It is rare to be able to remove all of the residue. Try using goo gone on a small corner of the shirt and see if it messes up the material if it doesn't gently apply it to the glue. Sometimes soaking and gently rolling fingers over the glue will remove the stickiness as well.
