      @LorrieNunemaker  3 года назад +2

      The clear will work in dark shirts but since it’s frosty and somewhat clear the color of the shirt will still show through so it won’t be like printing in a light color. Now you could use the glitter white that I showed and use that in a dark shirt

      Sublimation ink is much like the ink of a regular ink pen. If you write on a black shirt with an ink pen the ink will be there - but you’re not going to see it that well. The ink transparent so the color of the shirt is going to show through the ink

      Change your heat tape. All heat tapes are not equal. Had that problem once upon a time. Buy from the same supplier once you find a good heat tape. Oh btw you can get clear heat tape too.

    Would it be possible to sublimate on the vinyl first and then press to the shirt? I’m only wondering because you said it was hard to line up the image to the vinyl because the shirt is white.

    • @LorrieNunemaker
      @LorrieNunemaker  3 года назад +1

      Yes you can do it that way. My thought process was that the sublimation ink is only going to get heat zapped once. I’m sure it’s fine once it’s transferred onto the vinyl to be heat set again but I just felt better about doing it this way. I have seen others transfer it to the vinyl first with success.

      I tried applying it to parchment paper like I do with easysubli but I couldn't get it to stick. Plus it's so thin (which I love on the shirt) I don't know how you'd get it lift it and move it to your product.

      While you can sublimate black it won’t show up well. Think of it as a regular ink pen. If you drew on a black shirt with an ink pen - the ink would be there but it’s not going to show up that well. Sublimation ink is transparent

    What kind of ink do you have in your printer? Is it the Sublijet, Siser EasySubli or Chromablast? It is my understanding that the Siser EasySubli is specifically made for transferring on vinyl for use with cotton shirts. I found this out the hard way when I accidentally bought the Siser EasySubli refills for my SG500 instead of Sublijet. However, my SG1000 has the Sublijet and I would love to use this for larger prints on cotton. Thanks! And, as usual, thanks for another great tutorial!
