@@YouCanTotallyMakeThat Hello Miss Crystal, I was wondering about the dtv hack using your inkjet. Problem being, that it won't withstand the washing. Back in the tye-dye day, we had a tablet we'd put in the wash to lock in the colors which worked great. Why wouldn't it work with this?? The ink is dry, and it's a dye, not a pigment. I'm going to try to find some and give it a try. Has anyone else thought of or tried it? You report back, I'll report back. Please and thank you. We'll all find out together. 🖖
Lol I was laughing along with you when you peeled the teacher design and said What the Heck!! like you were half expecting it not to work 😆😆 As a former teacher, I lived in teacher tshirts so these designs have a special place in my heart 🥰
Amazing! First time with DTF powder & sublimation on cotton. The colors are super bright & pop. I could not be more happy! The only thing I will do different next time is use a griddle. I have a clam shell heat press. Set t it at 285. 30 mins later the glue was still not melted. Got out the trusty griddle from the kitchen. Put parchement on top at 285 and it was melted in a couple mins. Pressed the shirt at 325 with firm pressure and then peeled after about 15 seconds. I wish I could post a pic of how good it looks. Thanks for posting this video. I couldn't have done it without you. 💜
@YouCanTotallyMakeThat I went by the directions in the kit I got & and that's posted on Amazon that says to melt DTF powder at 266 to 284F for 3-4 mins on the press. After nearly 30 mins later, the powder still had not melted all the way. If I had just gone by what you recommended, it would have been just a couple of mins. They really need to update their instructions. Anyway, like you said, the griddle is the way to go, and I could not be more happy with the result & know better next time. 💜
Soooo sorry I missed you today. I was looking forward to the premier. I have Yamation and it allows hot and cold peel and I just tested it out today for the FIRST Time (cool peel though) before watching this video. It was my first DTF ever testing the different methods and so far your recommendation for 1 cure 1 press came out the nicest. I have an Epson Workforce inkjet printer that uses an Durabright Ultra Ink (it is a Pigment Ink and is waterproof once dry as I use it to print images for watercolor/mixed media and my Iron-on Vinyl and never have an issue with the ink running/smearing once dry). I use this printer for work, personal and kiddo uses it for school so being able to use my existing printer for the DTF hack has sooo much promise. I'm doing a wash test tomorrow so I fingers crossed it all holds up! Also, the Yamation DTF film feeds through the printer's paper tray (I don't have a rear feeder) without a problem. Last, the Yamation powder did not smell at all and YES my desk vac came in very handy! I'm loving your hacks sooo much! Thank you, Thank you, Thank you!
I'm so glad you made it to the replay! Thats awesome that your first try came out perfect yay!! I ordered the Epson workforce yesterday it has the Durabright Ultra Ink. Thank you for the info I'm excited I will be able to feed it through the printer. So stay tuned videos coming soon with it. Thank you for being amazing! CrystalAnn
@@YouCanTotallyMakeThat Can't wait to see your results with the Workforce. My test sheets looked great when I did them. The 1 cure + 1 press looked/felt the best while 2 cures + 1 press felt plasticy. After washing while the ink did not really wash out 1 cure + 1 press looked really bad while 2 cures + 1 press looked the best followed by 2 cures + 2 presses. I'm going to keep testing but not ready to take a sublimation printer off my wish list yet.
These came out amazing Crystal 😍 Love love them. Those colors are 🤩 that glitter bag is a must 😂 Can’t wait to be able to be a bestie soon. Gotta wait a bit (money wise 😉). Always love your tutorials. They are so detailed and excellent. You’re amazing ❤❤ stay blessed love 🥰
Thank you so much 😊 Girl I feel ya ❤️ you just being here hanging out watching and commenting means so much Thank you! Your just as amazing and I hope that your blessed beyond measure 🙏🏻 Your bestie CrystalAnn
Also yes I learned today about melting the powder the temperature matters I believe because I did shirts and I had my temperature to melt at 300 and it wasn’t enough it looked melted but wasn’t. When I went to wash ALL the ink came off so now I am on my way to make them again. Just finished purchasing my griddle. So I will follow up so THANK YOU SO MUCH! ❤
I have a Epson Et 8550 that I converted to sublimation, I love it! & a hp inkjet as well regular printer, I am definitely going to try this on both printers! I wanna try this on black & red hoodie as well!
@@YouCanTotallyMakeThat oh yeah i meant to ask you have you tried that cooling block from Amazon? I had to re order a new one bc i misplaced my first one lol
I'm new to this and would like it if you could explain what is the difference between using Sub paper and the DTF paper when sublimating? Seems like it's an extra step using the DTF film. Thank you ;)
Hey, CrystalAnn!! @YouCanTotallyMakeThat.... I know with typical sublimation on tshirts, we need to put a protective paper inside the shirt to prevent ink transfer. I've not seen you do that with the DTF. Is it not necessary?? That would be awesome!
Great video. I love Yamation and LOVE the glitter tote bag. I was a little confused because I am so used to seeing you with Design Bundles....LOL. Great idea to use the cricut easy press to heat it I have been using my heat gun. Thanks for sharing and have a blessed day.
Hi CrystalAnn. I bought some of the powder and sheets awhile back. Do u know if it is the hot or cold peel also or is there special ones for each of this brand? How did u find out about hot peel? Thank you so much for ur videos. If I had a question about a video that is from the past how can I ask?
On the package it will say hot or cold peel ❤️ I found out from some other sheets I ordered I noticed it said hot peel 🧐 so I started researching. Ask anywhere it should pop up to let me know I have a question you can ask here as well ❤️
I have seen another youtuber using painters tape down the center (long ways the full length) of the DTF film in order to get it to feed through the printer instead of taping to a sheet of paper. Have you tried this? Thoughts?
Lisa I too seen something similar where they taped across the top I tried it with this one but cut it out because it was a fail I haven't tried long ways I will test that out thank you so much
This is exciting. I have been researching the DTF hacks and afraid to try it. Could you tell me how well it holds up in the wash? Also can you only do these on white shirts or can you also make them for the bleached shirts like reg sublimation?
they hold up amazing in the wash no issues at all. you can do them on light colored shirts as well and bleached shirts if you do dark like black layer it on top of white HTV first
@@YouCanTotallyMakeThat Awesome, and if I use my sublimation printer , can I use the color one for washable items such as a T- shirt ? and do I still need the powder ? Thank you so much .
So if we do the process on siser easy weed it works? Also if we sublimate on siser easy weed do we need the clear layer on top to sublimate on or just the white siser easy weed? Thanks soo much I loove your channel
Thank you so much Yes it works on siser easyweed. I haven't tried sublimation direct to the siser but I have seen where you can sublimate like you said with the clear on top I will be testing this soon
Hello Crystal, Love your videos! So when loading the paper taped in the printer if it’s back loading any recommendations for that? I keep having issues with my printer not catching it. I have the Epson ET 2800 Also when subbing on black/dark clothes any recommendation for it to come out like yours? 😅😅 total Noob here!
Thank you so much. instead of the tape have you tried loading a stack of papers in your printer then then film? when subbing on black dark cloths you can layer it onto of white HTV or I personally would use siser easy subli at that point. hope this helps
Hi, were you using a regular printer or sublimation ink printer? If you have a sublimation printer what's the point of the power? I'm a little confused 🤔
this happened to me to with the epson pigment ink printer I will talk about in the next video you will have early access to tomorrow after the premier. when you go to print your going to change it to scale fit I can't I cant think of the exact wording but i do mention it in the video. simple fix
Why is my et-8550 keeps smearing my pics with the rollers, I also tried the Parchment paper from your other video but still having the same issue..can u please give me some tips
On TikTok if you search the Epson DTF hack there are people showing the solution with removing the rollers or adding cardboard where the film comes out
OMG thank you, if you find a solution I will love you always. I just bought a pack of the film and powder to try it out and I was 😢 because all 7 were coming out with roller marks like it’s melting almost. I was thinking, is it the film, is it the settings, is it the ink in itself. So I printed on a regular sub paper and it was crisp and beautiful but the film not so much 😢 and I also did the tape up at the top. Also, did the nozzle check and the head cleaning.
Crystal Ann, I have an Epson Ecotank converted for sublimation and I get those marks. It's so irritating. I've cleaned the printer per Epson directions, and it's only good for one print.
I tried using your inkjet hack and sublimation hack today and none of them turned out. I watched your tutorial while I was making them and I also watched multiple tutorials on them and none of them turned out. What did I do wrong? I used the products you recommended. A total fail. I need your help.
@@YouCanTotallyMakeThat I tried both ways. Cold and warm peel. I even tried to cure them both but the powder did not really melt. Is still looked gradual. I gave up and will try again. I am going to try on both white and a dark shirt. What video did you do they you used white Iron on for a background. I may try that way as well.
Have tried dtf on my sublimation epson printer. Printer grabs dtf , starts printing and then less half way through of printer stops. What am I doing wrong. So far I believe it’s not internet connection.
I used my heat press to try to melt it. If I use the design with my ink jet printer, will the colors was off in the wash? Should I use sublimation ink?
![Felix "Unfair" | [Stray Kids : SKZ-PLAYER]](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/Oswujxm2Ag0/mqdefault.jpg)
Did you know you could peel hot or cold?
I have that now I wanna go home n try it literally 🫣😭
🎉yay!!! Do it! Happy Crafting
