Warm Wetter Water!

Warm wetter water has always worked for me. Spray some on the dry transfers and let it soak, brush with a child sold toothbrush. WWW = In two quart saucepan bring one quart of water to a light boil and remove from heat. Add one-tablespoon liquid dish soap. Pour solution into spray bottle and apply as needed.
