Application tips

For pressing temperature and duration, we recommend referring to the instructions from your substrate supplier.
Example: 200° | 40 seconds

Sublimation only works on polyester substrates.

It does not allow white printing. The substrate must therefore be white or light-colored. The darker the substrate, the more colors are altered.

The textile must contain a minimum of 80% polyester.
The lower the polyester percentage, the duller the sublimation transfer result will be.
