How to Clean Cricut Heat Press? (Full Guide)

What do you do when a design suddenly comes out with marks or a sticky patch you didn’t expect? This happened to me while pressing a custom shirt, and that experience made me realize my Cricut heat press needed cleaning. Like many crafters, I stayed focused on iron-on projects and ended up skipping regular care. Over time, residue slowly builds up, and as a result, it starts to affect your final results. Because of that, I decided to write this blog to help you learn how to clean your Cricut heat press the right way. Along the way, you’ll also learn what to check before cleaning, what tools to use, and some tips to keep your machine working well for a long time.
