Clean Cricut Heat Press

The all-new Cricut heat press in your crafting kit gives your DIY projects a professional, polished finish quite effortlessly. But the press needs to be cleaned regularly to maintain consistent performance. Over time, fabric fibers, adhesive residue, or heat-transfer vinyl can accumulate on the plate. 

Cleaning the heat press machine is quite simple. Just be sure to follow these important tips: 

• Check that your heat press is powered off. Let it cool down for a while.

• Mix white vinegar with warm water or use a product like 409. 

• Use a non-abrasive cloth or a soft scrub pad to gently wipe the plate.

• If you find any residue, wrap a rubber spatula in a cloth, reapply the cleaner, and press hard to scrub that particular area.

• Place an old T-shirt or a blank sheet of paper under the area you are cleaning. This way, you can catch any drips and keep your workspace clean.

Once you are done cleaning, press a scrap piece of fabric so that no residue transfers to it. Apply a protective layer to the upper platen. Get a Teflon sheet or cover to prevent residue buildup and extend the life of the silicone pad. Wipe the outside of the machine using a damp cloth.
