You are so dedicated to us crafters and I hope you realize it is so appreciated. I have learned so much from your videos and your enthusiasm is contagious lol Thank you!!
You seem to be one of the most knowledgeable folks on RUclips and I appreciate your not spreading ignorance like haz mat required for DTF powders or using cat toys (aluminum foil balls) to sharpen Cricut blades. I am new to DIY sublimation printing, (1 week) and just purchased an ET-2850 and all the trimmings. I have, however, been a partner in an international wholesale wide format printing operation in Europe. We did not print on fabrics, however, our larger printers would crank out ink jet billboards and we did a lot of UV ink printing for Ikea. We shut down for Covid and decided to call it a day and retire. I want to produce T-shirts for a small Appalachian music festival I am involved with and I am having great success printing our art (An AI generated sunset desert scent with banjo, fiddle and guitar leaning on a Saguaro) on sand colored poly/cotton blends. However our main musician, actually world famous, only wears red t-shirts. So I have been struggling with dye-sub on dark colors. I have a custom leather business and use an airbrush for spraying dyes and finishes. I was wondering if it would be possibly to airbrush a layer of white DTF ink to a DTF print and then add the DTF powder while the ink is still wet. Then "cure" and finally contour cut (trade jargon) the graphic on film using a Cricut? It would seem that could accomplish the same effect as using a DTF printer with white ink, and result in a more integrated process and eliminate the vinyl look and feel. Or am I missing something? Thanks! Bob
I love using my Sawgrass sublimation printer for this hack. I have made myself a lot of different garments with this hack. I do find that with my printer I can't use the painter's tape (get a mis feed) so I just use scotch tape at the top and it feeds great, no streaks!. I have washed my clothing a lot and it is still bright as when it first came off the press. I love your videos CrystalAnn and I hope you keep on making them!!!! YOU ROCK!!!
Just tested for the first time on a 100% coton whit shirt... It is incredible 😍Epson Epson ET1810 A-Sub Sublimation ink with ICC profile, with LCL DTF transfer film and powder. Small Colour treatment in Photoshop to "push" and correct a bit the colours
Would love to see the dtf mixed with glitter!!! Also, did I miss where you did dtf to wood? I keep watching for it…hope you do it soon if I did not ,miss it. Love your videos, you are craft inspiring ❤
Omg 😢 crystal I am doing shirts for my uncles funeral and doing them with the dtf hack and inkjet printer since they won’t be washed but the photo we’re using has white clouds and he has white wings 😭 We’re printing on a baby blue shirt. Omg I’m just so scared of all the things that can go wrong 😑 help
When converting the ET-8500, do we use sublimation ink for all colors, except the white or do we have to use DTF ink for all of the colors? If this tutorial already exists, please share the link here for it. Thank you so much. You're an awesome instructor.
Parchment works great for me! Epson printer. No taping. Just one at a time though. Worth it cuz the transfers cost Pennies versus almost $1. Some roller marks but I cut them off or scrape area before transfer. Still cost benefit for couple seconds of proofing
My bestie is bomb!!! Listennnn world my girl knows what she’s talking about 👏🏽 💪🏽 I appreciate you soooo much and all you do for us ❤ Yesss please add glitter, would love to see it ♥️ I didn’t know about the chrome blast, pretty cool. And yess with the white ink please 😊 Thanks soo much bestie! I know what I know cause of you!!! Such an informative and thorough video! Stay blessed love 🥰
Very informative info on dtf hacks! Thanks! Are the dtf hacks using the sublimation printer fade in wash or is it just as durable in the wash/dry as regular sublimation? Second question is dtf feel the same as htv or more like screen printing feel?
Hi Crystal, I am a beginner to making shirts and tote bags. I’m so glad I can use my canon inkjet printer 😅 I’ve watched most of your inkjet hack videos. My only confusion is how do I know when it’s a hot or cool peel? I may be missing it or haven’t found that video.
Nothing scares me anymore lol. I was ordering vinyl gloves online and there was the warning they can't be shipped to California. I just don't care anymore lol (*sarcasm) I have to tell my 9 yr old grandson all the time to not believe everything they watch online! Definitely do your research with everything! Don't just believe what others say. Some people can also be sensitive to something you are not and won't affect you the same. I am grateful for this video. I just recently bought some powder after watching all of your videos. I love all the info basically updated to this video The info about the white ink is interesting. I have actually thought about getting a second printer to be able to use the white ink. Glad to know I was thinking along the lines of something that could be and has been done.
I'm over it as well I to agree I feel like everything now has that warning it's ridiculous! Yes do your research just because one person says no does not make it true. So glad you found this helpful the DTF has been such a fun adventure so far I can't wait to try out white ink 🥳 oh the possibilities
Love you, Crystal Ann! Finally subscribed. There’s an issue with Sawgrass for me - the price for refills outside the US is sky high. Thanks for sharing everything you know to help us crafters, appreciate this video so much.
Thank you for putting all this information in one video. I'm wondering if anyone had tried a bit of fabric paint for white background then use the dtf hack? I thought it might work for dark shirts that won't bleach light enough if it actually holds the dtf ink.
Thank you so much for all the information on DTF. I tried making one with the white vinyl and on without. The one with the white vinyl feels like vinyl but the one without felt like it blended into the shirt. I plan on making more so I can use more cotton shirts. Where can I send pictures of my work?
I would LOVE to see a process where someone does the WHITE ink hack so you can print color designs on a black t-shirt... THAT WOULD BE AWESOME! I tried to do it and I failed.
Thank you for all the wonderful information you have share. I am very interested in purchasing an Epson printer that will allow me to do the DFT hack on dark colors. so please post a video of you doing the hack.
Thank you for all your suggestions. It’s been great! 2 part question here 😅What is the benefit of using sublimation printer with the DTF powder instead of the ink jet printer- I have both! And can you wash the T-shirt with the DTF powder or is it more washable if you use sublimation ink DTF. I would like to see if using “white” DTF powder will take care of the white area dilemma! 😬😁
You know I admire what you do - so I have a question - I did the DTF hack with the paper and powder in your videos - it cam out sooooooo great - however when we washed it - it wrinkled up and one part almost came off completely - I have sawgrass 500 and I cured it first - what did I do wrong? Also - expert opinion please - I have a black/white/orange design my teacher friends want on a graphite gray shirt - would you screen print, htv or sublimate hack? Thanks for always being there for us!!!!!!
I have a question. I used an epson printer and it worked great! I made some new shirts with a new epson printer and the ink runs off when washed. With the first printer I sprayed water on my shirt right after because I accidentally burned a tiny area. The ink was absolutely fine. With these new shirts the tiniest splash of water ruined it. Could it be the printer, or not enough pressure/heat? The film didn’t peel as easy either
Love how you covered a lot of topics. This video is not for a beginner, but has a ton of information to help clarify some of the difference. Never thought of mixing actual glitter with the DTF powder, that might be interesting. I do have another question, can you use the DTF on ceramic or acrylic?
Thank you for this video excellent demonstration of products and uses. I do have a question, I don't think it was asked in the comments. Can one use Yamation or Godora power with either films?
Hi. This DTF film looks alot like what used to be called Reveal. Is this the same thing? I have a bunch of that left. If that's the same thing I'll use that. Thank you
Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge with us. We really appreciate you. ❤ I just have 1 question. Will you please tell me where you purchased the pink heat tape? Again, Thank you so much.
I have an Ecotank that I have not converted yet because I know you need to print something every day or every other day, to keep the ink from drying up and since I have no project planned I did not want to start yet. Is there some kind of picture or design we can print daily that is small enough to use all the ink but not big enough to drain all the color out when you do this daily maintenance. Thank you in advance 🙏and keep up your videos, the information you teach us is priceless. ❣
I would love to see the dtf with glitter added to the powder. Also you said you could get the white ink and put it in a converted Epson printer, but the Epson printer will still only have the 4 tanks for ink which color do you replace or am I totally not understanding what you are saying. Anyway I would love to see a video on you doing that. Thanks so much for all the videos, I watch them as much as I can. You are a great teacher.
Thank you so much! 😊 I agree we need to see the glitter test, as for the Epson it holds 6 ink colors for the one i'm talking about so it takes 2 whites
Your videos are always full of so much information!! Thanks so much!! Do you know if it is possible to use a DTF transfer or sublimation on top of white screen print paint?
Not being able to afford a new sublimation printer, I've watched all of your ink jet printer DTF hack videos. I have some questions. You did a Temu haul and you tried out a sublimation spray. That says it removes the sizing from the fabric. Do you think prewashing with soda ash would work to make the ink jet colors more color-fast ? Also, someone suggested using Bubble Jet Set, I'm wondering how that may affect the colors as well. Can you do a video using those products for regular ink jet printers. Such a great video line-up and the community is so supportive as well.
@@YouCanTotallyMakeThat totally new to this! Sorry if I sound 🤪. But which side of the wax paper do I put my design and the dtf powder to sublimate? And which do you recommend better? Wax paper or parchment paper?
Please do the glitter n dtf. Thank you for this info. I burnt my comforter n sheets on my bed the first time I did a DTF shirt. I wasn’t thinking n put my griddle on my bed without anything under it. Right now I have limited space. I had it on 385 n was trying to get everything right. I didn’t even notice the smoke till my chihuahua started coughing. It was right at the stage of actually catching fire. I had just put a new comforter on my bed n new sheets. Needless to say they are ruined. I learned an expensive lesson, to THINK n not be in such a hurry. 😂
My swing away heat press has rubber mats on it. Should I take them off and just press on the flat platter? Should I use Teflon sheets on my heat press? I have been using it with the pads and Teflon sheets magnetted to the heat press but I have been hearing different things from other people.
Leave your heat pad on mine has one as well and I used to have my Teflon with magnets as well you can leave them the only time I would not use teflon is with puff HTV
Love all your videos I’ve learned a lot. Could you do a test with inkjet DTF transfer film. And a regular iron? I don’t want to buy all the expensive equipment and find out that it’s not for me.
I have a slide away heatpress and DTF hack not cooperating. I’ve tried different heat settings and turning the knob to adjust the pressure and it’s a no go. I also have issues making memorial ribbons ( but this is another thing) again makes me think it’s a pressure thing .. I ordered a different DTF powder to try out before I invest in another printer. Maybe an automatic one .. any feedback is appreciated.. ty
Hey , I am new to this , I saw most of your videos and decided I gonna make it. But I don’t know why I do the same step but mine come out is orange ish on Tshirt even is white Tshirt 😅
I love your honesty, my question is if i get the prestige A4 , do I still have to buy the package ..can't I just get the printer and use my heatpress and my powder just how you did it ?
I have a procolored dtf printer and I use the griddle method to cure the powder and it works fine. As much as I would love to have the curing oven, it was just not worth the extra cost at this point. For me, I set it at 275 degrees and it cures within about 30-45 seconds. You may have to play around with the temps a bit. Powers, films and griddles vary so again, you may have to play around with it a bit. The most important thing with the griddle is to use the parchment paper. If you don’t, the film will melt or warp and ruin your print. I hope this helps 😃
Yes! Glitter added would be great to see
Yay! I agree glitter has to be tested
You are so dedicated to us crafters and I hope you realize it is so appreciated. I have learned so much from your videos and your enthusiasm is contagious lol

2 part question here 😅What is the benefit of using sublimation printer with the DTF powder instead of the ink jet printer- I have both!
And can you wash the T-shirt with the DTF powder or is it more washable if you use sublimation ink DTF.
I would like to see if using “white” DTF powder will take care of the white area dilemma! 😬😁
can you do a sublimatoin then put foil on top
Yes you can
Please do the Epson converted to DTF ink hack!
Crystal Ann can you use the DTF hacks on white sublimation tumblers and mugs (or any tumbler and mug)?
You know I admire what you do - so I have a question - I did the DTF hack with the paper and powder in your videos - it cam out sooooooo great - however when we washed it - it wrinkled up and one part almost came off completely - I have sawgrass 500 and I cured it first - what did I do wrong? Also - expert opinion please - I have a black/white/orange design my teacher friends want on a graphite gray shirt - would you screen print, htv or sublimate hack? Thanks for always being there for us!!!!!!
Great video!!
Glad you enjoyed it
How about slicklab dtf is it safe to use?
What do you think about the procolored?
I have not done a lot of research on that one but from what I have seen its looking pretty good
Yes, please do the white ink printer.

Can I ask where do you go to make your designs
Question my dtf is not sticking to my garment. Any reason why or recommendation
Sorry just seen this I wonder if you need to pre press moisture
Thank you for another helpful video. Id love to see the white ink printer conversion
Thank you glad you liked it! Coming soon!
Yes, I’d like to see the white ink hack…….thank you!
I just watch your video few times, did you print on the shiny side of the parchment paper?
mine is double sided yes print on the side with the wax silicone coating
Thank you for this video excellent demonstration of products and uses. I do have a question, I don't think it was asked in the comments. Can one use Yamation or Godora power with either films?
Thank you so much 😊 yes you can
Hi. This DTF film looks alot like what used to be called Reveal. Is this the same thing? I have a bunch of that left. If that's the same thing I'll use that. Thank you
I haven’t heard of reveal but it’s definitely worth a shot trying it
@@YouCanTotallyMakeThat you're right. I have a bunch of it. It was pricey and difficult. Probably why it went away lol.
Yes Please - for the Epson with white ink
Yay!! you got it
Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge with us. We really appreciate you. ❤ I just have 1 question. Will you please tell me where you purchased the pink heat tape? Again, Thank you so much.
What is the pressing time and temp? Thank you.
300F 20 Sec if you cure it if you don't 385F for 20S
Thank you! I appreciate it@@YouCanTotallyMakeThat
After you use the DTF ink, can you use the sublimation ink as well?
just to make sure I answer this correctly if your talking about converting one to DTF no one you put DTF ink or vise versa you have to stick with it
I want to see the glitter and the et 8550 conversion
Yay!! Happy to hear this ❤️

I think printing the nozzle check that is those small lines should be sufficient and print on cheap copy paper not the film
@@YouCanTotallyMakeThat thank you! That doesn't sound so daunting 👍
I know this is old but purge files will work too. It uses all colors and also help you check your ink colors
Hmm have you tried adding glitter to the powder?? i wanna see😊
If the Sawgrass is refurbished does the warranty still apply? That would be very appealing as they don't go on sale often.
Yes it does
I would love to see the dtf with glitter added to the powder. Also you said you could get the white ink and put it in a converted Epson printer, but the Epson printer will still only have the 4 tanks for ink which color do you replace or am I totally not understanding what you are saying.

I am new to sublimation. Can you use the powder on tumblers?
I did try this and it was a fail
Can I dtf on pine glass?
I'm getting stippily prints doing my DTF sublimation hack
Your videos are always full of so much information!! Thanks so much!! Do you know if it is possible to use a DTF transfer or sublimation on top of white screen print paint?
Thank you so much! I honestly think I tested this at Design bundles but I try so much that I can't remember. but stay tuned as I'm testing it soon

only use black powder on all black designs
Love all your videos I’ve learned a lot. Could you do a test with inkjet DTF transfer film. And a regular iron? I don’t want to buy all the expensive equipment and find out that it’s not for me.
I have a slide away heatpress and DTF hack not cooperating. I’ve tried different heat settings and turning the knob to adjust the pressure and it’s a no go. I also have issues making memorial ribbons ( but this is another thing) again makes me think it’s a pressure thing .. I ordered a different DTF powder to try out before I invest in another printer. Maybe an automatic one .. any feedback is appreciated.. ty
I think the epson 8550 with the white ink would be game changing
I totally agree ❤️
Looking for dtf hack using ink jet for decals ??? Is there a way??? So I not spending so much $$# ordering from others to put on hard surfaces
Hey , I am new to this , I saw most of your videos and decided I gonna make it. But I don’t know why I do the same step but mine come out is orange ish on Tshirt even is white Tshirt 😅
I love your honesty, my question is if i get the prestige A4 , do I still have to buy the package ..can't I just get the printer and use my heatpress and my powder just how you did it ?
I have a procolored dtf printer and I use the griddle method to cure the powder and it works fine. As much as I would love to have the curing oven, it was just not worth the extra cost at this point. For me, I set it at 275 degrees and it cures within about 30-45 seconds. You may have to play around with the temps a bit. Powers, films and griddles vary so again, you may have to play around with it a bit. The most important thing with the griddle is to use the parchment paper. If you don’t, the film will melt or warp and ruin your print. I hope this helps 😃
Crystal Ann, I love using the parchment paper. However, I haven’t had any luck printing without roll marks. Any help?
