## Scenario

## Objections
- **"Can I use a household iron?"** Not for repeatable DTF or vinyl. A press gives even temperature, pressure and time.
- **"Will 380×380 do?"** Yes for most adult chest and back prints. Choose 400×600 for large backs or batches.

## How to choose
Choose 380×380mm clamshell or swing-away presses for tees and small runs.
Choose 400×600mm when you press large backs or several items at once.
The twin-station air press lets you dress one station while the other presses.
