Method 2: Using Hot Air and Steam to remove an iron on transfer paper printed on the shirt
1. Lay the garment on a flat surface. An ironing board or a table top with a towel will do, but the surface must be heat-resistant.

2. Tuck a towel into your clothes. Keep a small towel or rag under your clothes to prevent damage to the other side of your clothes. If the towel is too soft to handle on a hard surface, use a piece of cardboard or very thin plywood instead.

3. Check the care instructions on the clothing label. Heating above the recommended temperature may damage the fabric. Too high temperature can melt some fabrics, such as polyester.

4. Heat the pattern with a hair dryer. Set the hair dryer to the highest setting and hold it very close to the pattern or lettering, which may heat the glue to the point where it tends to stretch and peel.

6. Use a sharp knife to peel off the pattern. After loosening the pattern with hot air, pry it up by scraping along the edges of the pattern with a sharp knife. As long as a part is successfully pryed, the entire pattern can be easily torn off.
