Title: WOW-best junk to remove heat seal
Post by: mooseman on February 16, 2017, 07:20:00 AM
Most of you guys and gals may know this but for newbs like me it is a big discovery. this stuff kicks ass and takes names when it comes to removing vinyl from a shirt. We typically use Siser products and often make mistakes, boo boos of find the little piece that should be gone isn't .
Bought a bottle of TEKMAR TS-VLR and was amazed!
For us this is a product that really does what it says it does.
No need to saturate the shirt like the instructions say we just kinda of swab it on with a small artist brush and lift the vinyl off.
we have even corrected small delicate areas that should have been weeded out after we discovered it stuck to the shirt.....WOW
Think we paid @ $12.00 for the bottle

stahls sells it also, different name.   works great thing to be careful is on polyester can cause fabric to bleed.   and if you ever use it and get a ring around the area that was saturated just reapply and force dry by using air gun or blowing.

Make sure you keep it closed very well. I would even keep it sealed in the big zipper bag.
I have not use it for a while, and when I tried, the bottle was empty.
It evaporatesssssssssssssss

I agree the stuff is very light (and no doubt toxic) but DAMN it works!!!!!!!

That is some nasty stuff by the way, gloves and good ventilation necessary at the minimum...
