Worked for me. It works better if you get someone to help you stretch the shirt by hand more after it’s soaked in the bag. I tried it on a few different types of shirts. And was successful with 100% Cotton as well as Cotton/Polyester blends. I found it worked best with a 90% Cotton 10% Polyester t-shirt. I’m going to try a 50/50 Blend tonight and see what happens. Make sure you follow the directions in the video as close as you can for the best results. Good luck!
