*If sublimating for the first time, please ensure that you have properly researched sublimation basics and are using the appropriate printer, ink, and transfer paper.*
- Set heat press to 400°F and set time to 60 seconds
(Note: Some specialty papers/inks may recommend different settings. Refer to your manufacturer instructions.)
- Place a sheet of butcher paper or unwaxed parchment paper inside the shirt to prevent sublimation ink from reaching the back of the shirt.
- THOROUGHLY lint roll the entire surface area of the shirt that will be exposed to heat.
- Place mirrored sublimation transfer face down onto the shirt and secure with heat resistant tape.
- Place another sheet of butcher paper or unwaxed parchment paper over the shirt and transfer to protect the heat press.
- Press shirt and peel hot ( this is for A-sub 120gsm sublimation paper, other transfers paper may be cool peel)
SUBLIMATION FAQ
Q: How can I prevent "ghosting" or unwanted shadows?
A: Make sure your transfer is secured well with heat resistant tape to avoid movement while the shirt is still hot.
Also, you may need to use a pressing pillow to ensure an even distribution of pressure.
------‐-----------------
Q: Why am I getting blue specs on my pressed shirt?
A: Blue specs are a result of lint left on the shirt. Be sure to use a lint roller with enough tack or a fresh sheet. Do not skip this step even if lint is not visible to you. It's there!
-------------------------
Q: Why are there press lines on the shirt in the shape of my transfer?
A: You may have applied too much pressure. Adjust your heat press pressure knob accordingly.
(TIP: Tearing off the outer edge of your sublimation transfer may help to feather out the edge making press lines less noticeable.)

I have used so many different brands for sublimation and by far these are the best! I have ran into issues when applying tape to the artwork and when removed you’re able to see where the tape was. Not with these. Hoping to see additional colors as an option.
