When using multiple ink colors with hot-split inks, be sure to butt-register, rather than overlay ink on ink.
If ink overlay occurs, ink/color strength will be impaired when the transfer is heat fused onto the garment.
Remember to continue to keep the transfer paper in plastic wrapping or in a temperature controlled oven, as moisture will invariably be absorbed by the paper between each printed color.
