How To Do Sublimation On T Shirts

-
Sublimation, or dye sublimation printing, is a process. You can use a special printer, special inks, and special paper to create a design and then put them on a variety of blank products.

You can do sublimation on many products such as:
  • Apparel: Polyester fabrics and other clothes not 100% cotton
  • Accessories: Socks, bags, hats
  • Baby items: Baby clothing
  • Electronics accessories: Phone cases
Today, I am going to show you how to do sublimation on T Shirts.
First you need to prepare all the things: sublimation printer, sublimation ink, sublimation blank shirt, sublimation paper and heat press.


And then take the following steps:
  1.  Create a design. You can design and create your favorite image through the computer.
  2.  Print it out. Don't forget the mirror before print it out.  
  3.  Line up your design then make it clear and neat.
  4.  Use the heat press and press the image onto your T Shirt. We recommend pressing time no longer than 40 seconds and degrees from 195℃ to 205℃.
  5. Remove the sublimation paper.
Remember: You can only sublimate on Polyester Fabrics. 100% COTTON T-SHIRTS CAN'T USE SUBLIMATION PAPER. This is due to the temperatures needed to achieve a high quality print and depth of color.

What's The GSM Of Paper?

-
Image
GSM means ' Grams Per Square Meter '. Thickness of paper is determined by its weight in grams per square metre. To be simple, it helps buyers and suppliers to know exactly about the quality of paper. The higher the GSM number, the heavier the paper. You may ask "What does gsm in 80gsm paper mean？". That's to say, with 80 gsm paper, a typical A4 paper weighs 5 grams. Although paper is not quite as extreme, between printed jobs that use different boards that might have the same but with different thicknesses. It mostly happens  in uncoated boards with cheaper grades having the same thickness but weighing less than more superior grades. The followings are the c ommon board weights and their approximate thicknesses : 200gsm = 150 to 220mics 250gsm = 190 to 285mics 300gsm = 237 to 342mics 350gsm = 284 to 395mics 400gsm = 315 to 460mics Photography paper is considerably thicker than conventional multipurpose paper. Multipurpose paper generally has a pa

As we all know, Kodak and Fuji are famous photo paper suppliers. But do you exactly know the differences between the two photo paper and what's your choice when photo printing? After reading my article, you may have a deeper understanding of the question. Features: The Fuji photo paper is thin and delicate, but firm and resilient. Although thin, the area weight is the same as Kodak's mainstream photo paper. The best color reproduction. Fuji's color management is absolutely first class. This is not comparable to any other business. It is more in line with Asian aesthetic habits. The good base paper. It is produced from raw material fine fiber. Most other manufacturers produce recycled fiber. Kodak is also good photo paper. There is some difference between the two. Kodak's color performance is deep, much more European and American styles. Fuji's color reproduction is true and fresh, Asian people prefer it. Let's take a look at the sensitivity curve:

Requirements For Base Paper of Sublimation Transfer Paper

I will tell you how to choose good base paper of sublimation paper . In addition to the basic requirements of the general coated paper, the base paper of the sublimation transfer paper has certain requirements of the tightness and breathability. The First is the larger tightness, generally more than 9g/cm with small air permeability. If the tightness of base paper is to small and the air permeability is too large, the sublimation ink will diffuse outward through the back of base paper during the sublimation transfer process and will affect the  printing effect. Second , the base paper should also need better tensile strength and heat resistance. Especially after the heating process, the base paper still needs to maintain a certain strength. When selecting the original paper, the heat resistance index is also a very important testing parameter. Only in this way can the paper still have high strength in the process of continuous high temperature production, and the paper will n
