Wow printing on Sublimation print. That's opened up a whole new world. Thanks.
Thanks Jenna Sackett for this great information
I have sublimation prints that are from the 1980's and they still press well. They were bootleg prints from sports. Let them stay reasonably cool and dry, they will last for years

Please share all the different type of fabrics needed for sublimation. Is this only for 100% polyester or ok with triblends, 50/50’s etc! Is there a blocker that can be use under the sublimation if is not a 100% polyester? Thanks

Great Job Jenna!

Thanks for the video. To do metallic, do I need different ink and sublimation paper. How do I achieve the metallic in my printer.
Great question! The metallic used in the video is actually our metallic heat transfer vinyl. So you would need the ink and paper for your sublimated design, as well as some metallic HTV
Where do you get HTV and how is it cut to produce your design. Do you need a vinyl cutting machine?
Hi,
Please what sublimation machine are you using?
We clothing line who now wants to print our own garments.
Please is there any different between sublimation paper and vinyl heat transfer paper? And can you please send me how the sublimation paper and vinyl heat transfer paper look like? And please how can I known my white plain T-shirt is polyester?
Are there any options available whatsoever for sublimating to dark colors?
There are solutions out there if you google or UA-cam it
So which heat press is the one that prevents the ghosting? You said both kinds but not which one was correct.
Is stahls or transfer express doing all over print for customer??
Please, must one use only polyester materials for sublimation?
100% polyester fabrics will give you the best colors when using sublimation.
I need your advice on purchasing a reasonable Sublimation paper. Which one do you recommend?
Can Stahls or anyone share what manufacture and model number the double large format heat press is?
what are the temp for t shirts and do you know what temp you would use for mug i am just starting and i just watch my printer cause i am scared to burn the t shirt and my mugs were horrible thank you for teaching
I need help please! I saw one of your videos that you sublimated sport sleeves. You also showed how to use sublimation with other cad cut materials. I can't find that video anywhere and I desperately need to watch it again!
Sara Evans on the search for you!
@@StahlsTV thank you!!!
hi, im just starting out with this venture and i was watching your video and i was wondering if white or bright colors are the only colors thst can be sublimated on and whats the best sublimating paper to use. I have the epson wf 7720 printer.
Yes unless you use a poly powder or spray polyfog.... and I like texprint-R sublimation paper
WATCHING FROM NIGERIA
can you achieve the all over printing effect without having a large/industrial machine? Great Vid btw
You can do it with an iron but it won’t be as good of a quality, it better to invest in a press they start at $150 for the small ones and if you’re using it for many shirts it works out
I would be nice to find in the description box the links for the blanks used. I know the presenter says them, but it is hard to catch when you do not know them... Thank you
I only heard s and s activewear fir poly shirt glitter flax bows saw grass printer ink jet at home converted
Costal biz flip flops
Did u have to use polyester or can i use cotton?
Polyester only when using Sublimation - if not, it will wash out.
Any idea what caused those dark blotches on the white shirt? Thank you!
im from jamaica i love T-Shirts printing
I have sublimation paper that pink on one side and Plain on the other side I printed on the plain side but cannot get the picture to go onto the shirt what am I doing wrong
Love the blouse. Where did you purchase it from ??
If I sublimate a photo on a tile and place it on a wall outside, will the print fade from being exposed to the sun and rain?
Great Video.
Glad you enjoyed it

Does stahls sell sublimation transfers now?
Yes, we do. You can order them through our CADPRINTZ Transfers.
Watching from the uk👋
thats the first issue..nobody wants a closet full of white shirts..im commenting early in so not sure what youll discuss here..but im pretty sure they have methods to print on dark colors as well.
That's true! And that's why a lot of decorators use other print methods such as full-color heat transfers or heat transfer paper so they can print on dark fabrics.
@@StahlsTV so ae you saying sublimation ink isn't good for dark colors? This is a VITAL question before I invest HUNDREDS of $$ into sublimation ink/printer. I am looking to make an investment soon so please reply ASAP!
How many times can you use the same sublimation sheet?
I have a we epson inkjet. Could I sublimate with it
Did you ever get the answer
how much is the heat press machine
You can find this heat press at stahls.com - this particular press is currently $2,250.
from Indiana and thinking about sublimation
How about on mugs and plates
Hello. Our Sublimation Transfers will work on a mug or plate if it has proper polymer coating. Be sure to check your blank hard good specs to see if they are compatible with sublimation. Good luck!
can you do a video of sublimation printing on metal plates?
My question is can you use inkjet inks to print on sublimation paper to put on shirts? Or do you need sublimation inks?
The best ink is sublimation ink for best results.
Thanks for the responses Jaymes! Yes, Andrew that's correct - you will need sublimation ink to be able to print on sublimation paper. However, there is transfer paper you can use for inkjet desktop printers.
Can you sublimate on Satin fabric
What about printing on a black t-shirt???
Question? I've been working with sublimation.. Could i just use the Kraft paper? I keep seeing that with sublimation you have to use the Teflon sheet.
Yes use kraft paper or butchers paper or reg printer paper
That’s amazing
What is the minimum amount of polyester you can use for sublimation?
How can I print this on timber
What advice do you have if my colors come out looking washed
Kayla - is it possible that the blank you are using has any other content in it beside 100% polyester? Also, which sublimation printer are you using?
@@StahlsTV yes they're 50/50 and the epson 7710
@@StahlsTV where do you get your 100% polyester blanks?
@@KaylaPankeyJustKayFR it really sucks having to wait for a reply, or like others who asked questions never to get a response at all

What happened to bottom of full mix media metallic bottom of shirt
How you can sublimate on 30x60 inch beach towel. Do you have that big machine and how much it cost. Are you in US or Canada. Do you have a showroom.
Hi Jenna, This is Shakeel From Palksitan, my question is that how can we get actual black color from sublimation print heat transfer, actually im facing a problem with black color black is not coming proper black color, black showing darkest brown, and all over picture showing dark brownish, i used china sublimation ink and also Korean ink but result is not good, can you help me on this issue,
It could possibly be the type of ink you're using with the sublimation printer, or the Pantone color you're using - if it's not a true black, the sublimation ink will look like a faded black. I hope this helps!
does the metallic have the feel of HTV vinyl or is it infused in the fabric like sublimation transfer is?
It feels like HTV - sits on top of the fabric as opposed to sinking into the fabric like sublimation ink does.
I haven't gotten it yet. I was just curious about it
Damn! You look good!... I forgot what I really came here for.
Can you cut designs from the sublimation?

Hi, just got on for the first time. In Alabama
How do you do whole pictures with a small printer
In my experience with sublimation transfer I someteimes had the same bad stains on the shirt after transfering. They did not com from the press, this comes from some chemicals in the fabric. You can wash them out easyly with a normal washingmachine.
Yes, we discovered that was the problem after it happened. Thanks for the information, I'll be sure to remember this when discussing sublimation blanks!
My printer just died, it was an HP OfficeJet. Now I'm in the process of deciding what kind of printer I need. I just have a home based business. I have a heat press. What is the best printer? Should I go ahead and get the sublimation printer or is that not going to be viable as an all around printer? Someone please give me your opinion. I'm so tired of comparing online, I'd like a real persons opinion. Thanks

What Sublimation Ink do you trust to give the best color and permeability?
I hope Stahl's will do a video about DTF (Direct Transfer Film) printing for those of us that are interested in learning about it.
