Is the Specific Heat Resistant Tape For Sublimation a Waste of Money or is it Worth it?

- When you’re making items using sublimation you will want to use an adhesive whether it’s spray adhesive or a heat resistant tape. I recently purchased some special specific heat resistant tape for my project, but in this video you will see that painters tape is also heat resistant and works just as well for a lot cheaper!
I was watching the video and thought my cat was crying. She came when I called her. I was like what?? Then I realized it was the video 🤣
I am at someone else’s house and they have a ‘house cat’ they just went out and I thought they had accidentally let the cat outside and went looking for it 😂😂
Thank you so much! Straight to the point 😄😄 and exactly what I need it know
Thank you! I'm working on a difficult design on a very large (4x) shirt so I've had to slice the design multiple times and I don't have any heat resistant tape but I do have blue painters tape so I'm about to give it a shot. Thanks so much for the experiment and video. Your kitty sounds like a spoiled baby (like mine are). Lol.
I've used this on tumblers, no residue what so ever left on them. But i used this on the satin pillowcases from the dollar tree to make santa sacks. It didn't want to come off unless it was warmed up and then it left sticky residue which i can not seem to get off even after washing twice.
I've had the the same issue with it leaving the glue residue. Not sure if it is going to melt my polyester shirt but I think i am going to try glue-b-gone and see if I can rescue my shirt
Thank you for this I used heat tape and it left the yellowish color and stick residue on my item. Luckily it was just a practice item.
That yellowish color was left on mines too from the heat tape. The blue heat tape Cricut sales is much better but I was advised to buy scotch tape
@@pendiesel1825 what kind of scotch tape ? I’m glad I’m reading this , i wud be really upset if yellow stuff was left on my clothing , i had no clue cricut made heat tape
Pen Diesel same problem did you was able to get rid off the yellow stains
Same here. I have the blue cricut tape and it left a blue mark on my shirt! Just like you it was a practice item but it came out great otherwise and I want to wear it .
My heat tape also leaves yellowish residue but only when pressing on the 100% polyester white shirts. It does just fine on my 65% polyester heather shorts that I bleach white spot to sublimate on. Guess it's the high polyester that causes the yellow.
The copper tape is also called kaptan. It is used in the electronics industry.
Unfortunately my blue painters tape left sticky on my tee. I'm going to have to figure out a way to get it off
Omgosh I hope you have balanced your heat press since you posted this. The way it rocks back and forth makes me nervous that somehow you could get an unexpected burn. Hope not!
Thank u This video help a lot
The heat press tape left yellow spots on my t shirt. I am SOOOOooo pissed. I bought like 3 rolls. Like you said these rolls are not
cheap
We having same issue is frustrating
@@silasbailey im gonna try the painters tape next and it seems you get way more for you money with it
Would this work as well if you were doing it with a dark shirt and using the transfer paper for darks? Or would it just mess it up? 🤔 I have been looking for about 3 hours on tips and your video is the only one remotely close to what I need answers to 😭
Sublimation doesn’t work well on darks :( but I do have a video on how to sub on any color though just posted a week or two ago if you search! You would just sub on vinyl and put vinyl on the shirt !
Did she really answer your question? I just print shirts with regular HTV and all I want to know is will the heat resistant painters tape work for that? I don't do sublimation because my printer is not set up for that
Hey thanks for the video. Question have you ever had any issues with the yellow heat resistant tape leaving a yellow mark on the Products in the making. I’ve had some issues with the yellow tape not sure where to Point myself 🥺
Just did my first sublimation yesterday and used the yellow heat tape and it left yellow marks on the white shirt 😭. Did you figure out why it did that? Or how to remove the yellow marks?
I've heard mention of this issue on other videos FWIW. Sounds like something to avoid.
Is it safe to assume that the painters tape would also work on photo slates and the hardwoods with the sublimation coating on them?
What brand of painters tape is that ? I never knew painters tape was heat resistant
Not tryna patronize but it says 3m on the interior of the toll
can we use a normal scotch tape for Heatpress?
No, scotch tape is plastic and it would melt
I do 400 at 55 to 60 seconds for sublimation. Wonder if it will hold up then?
Yes..it does..I use it all the time
I tried 400 at 60 and it worked just fine!
Your cats so mad !! 😂😂
Yessssssssssssssss
Can you use it for tumblers?
I only use blue painter's tape or masking tape to wrap my sublimation tumblers all the time and they come out perfect. I do not use shrink wrap ever to sublimate my tumblers; it's too expensive imo.
Was wondering the same. I will try this now.
@@MsBugzieBaby did it work? I have yellow tape that just ruined 2 tumblers
@@stephanieguss I used it on my Tumblers and I had no issues. At first I had lifting of the blue tape because I didn't put enough because I was scared and plus I was using the air fryer methode but o made sure I put enough blue tape press it down and Tumblers came out good.
