In my experience Marvelseal needs to get pretty hot. I
have had good luck with a household iron set at
cotton, not all the way up but pretty hot. Especially
if you are doing a large surface and dont have all
day. You will notice a change in the reflective
qualities when it gets too hot (it kind of bubbles a
little). Good luck
