      I second that Delonda you are the best. I don't make a decision until I have checked to see what you are saying about it. Thank you for this video. I'm still deciding on which printer to get.I have the epson2850 that I use for print and cut, and I have been seeing the ET3850 at a reasonable price. Would that be a good printer to convert ?
      Thank you as always for all that you do and show us all. 😊

    You are Awesome Delonda! When my wife and it got started with sublimation we were just as confused as you mentioned in your video because of all of the videos on RUclips. One of the first things I did was to go and find a White Paper on Sublimation and then I found a White Paper on The History of Sublimation. WOW, was I amazed with the difference how the garment industry performs sublimating fabric vs. Crafting with sublimation. I soon realized that a lot of RUclipsrs were in fact giving their opinions instead of Facts. We always love watching your videos because you do the research and present the material so well. Thank you and keep up the great work.

I'm a hobby crafter who has decided to jump into sublimation. I have my Ecotank printer and all the supplies, an Easy Press but have an HTVRONT heat press and tumbler press on the way. My She-shed/Craft Room should be finished by Christmas so I'll be ready to get everything all set up to start playing in the New Year. Thank you for helping me out on this journey!

    Hello from Richmond, Texas, everything you mentioned in this video is correct, I didn’t even know about Sublimation, I started with Infusable Ink, and felt in love with it then I saw a video about Sublimation and I was hooked, I have not been successful with DTF, my printer doesn’t like it, I will keep on trying, it could be the rollers because I have try everything else.

    I questions. so i bought from hobby lobby some sublimation sheets to make shirts. i followed the directions carefully and it didnt tell me anything abt converting to sublimation inks. i created the image and printed on my ink jet and then put it to my cricut heat press. * actually the directions said you could use a household iron. i knew that was not gonna work for even heat. i had my own cricut press anyway. It was my first sublimation project..... i thought it came out fine. i used a light pink top. i used a cotton tee for my niece and made her a little shirt. my main observation was that the transfer after i was done was kind of stiff. not totally but there is a stiffness. i have not washed it yet. i thought i might. but i wonder now since i didnt use sublimation ink will it bleed all in my washer? hmmmmm

    Thank you for the excellent video! I recently did an Epson Ecotank printer conversion to sublimation ink. I purchased the Htvront sublimation HTV for dark fabrics. I tested a sample of black knit fabric and the adherance is fine but it looks dark. Then I tried using a layer of regular white HVT, the Htvront and then the sublimation ink on top of that and it was better. Is this normal? Does it always take 3 layers?

    • @CraftingwithDelonda
      @CraftingwithDelonda  Год назад +1

    Delonda - can I layer HTVRont Sublimation HTV for Dark Fabric over each other? I messed up on my shirt (the sublimation image didn't turn out right) and am wondering if I can just press another layer of it on top of the existing one.

    I’m having a hard time it’s not vibrant. I’m using hippo because I’m using hippo Inc.

      Check your drivers and your printer settings. The image will not be vibrant until after it is pressed.
