I haver been using this product for a while and love it. To save on spray, I put butcher paper inside shirt so as to not wet through the shirt as you don't have to soak both layers.
@@amberlindsey7112 it will fade a bit. However the unicorn shirt is still going strong and very cute. I can’t say it looks as “crisp” as it does in the video but my granddaughter wears it for bed and it gets washed weekly. So every months later, weekly washes it looks like any other well worn pj shirt. The image is still very solid and very colorful
Hi Lorrie. I’ve been following you for years, love all the tutorials. You made my day today with the ND T-shirt. Thanks for all you do for the crafting world. And Go Irish! ☘️💙💚
Thank you so much !!! New to using in fusible ink but several rolls didn’t know material had to be poly and have many cotton tees ! You made my day . Will order the product . Love your tutorials !
That is too cool! My husband only wears 100% cotton tees. I may be very interested in this product. Also, have been meaning to say something for a bit and keep forgetting. You look and sound so much happier being on "your own". Im so happy for you and your health.
The shirts do fade a bit after several washes, but more of a softer look like the tshirt gets after several washes. The image is still quite vivid.. I can't really explain it. It's still a great image, just not quite as crisp as the original. I am still making them for myself and the kids because I hate wearing poly tees
So you use asub a lot 125g ? And I had purchase 120g and printed and it came out dark some what light but it see you use 125g and it came out dark so how is it through wash ?
I am interested in what the shirts will look like after they have been washed. I have seen this done on cotton before then after one wash it faded about 50%. Can you please show after you washed the shirts. Thank you.
How do you keep the white t-shirts from ending up with yellow scorched patches outside of the printed area where there is over spray? I tried removing by spraying peroxide but still can see yellowing. And yes, followed their instructions carefully with time and temperature. Verified my heat press temperature with an Infrared Thermometer Temperature Gun.
Thank you! Awesome video. I can't wait to try this out. I have a job pending where they really want 100% cotton so now I'll be able to accommodate them.
I think I’m confused so these sheets take the place of the ink that you would add the printer or do you still need a submlimatiin printer as well to work with the sheets - sorry still learning 😩
So basically you mix it and spray it and after you heat set it, you can sublimate on it like on polyester? That’d be amazing! In your experience, Does it work as good as in the video?
Can you use this product on cotton/poly blends? I have tons of items I ordered. I have not used them yet, and I cannot return, so money wasted. Before I start, I was curious and did not want to waste product. I do have an injet and sublimation ink. But, I also bought sublimation paper. Any guidance you could assist with, would be greatly appreciated. Thanks and the videos are awesome?
The only thing I didn’t like was a shadow that remains where I sprayed the Dyepress solution on a gray 100% cotton shirt. I used Cricut infusible ink and it worked just like the pink shirt you show. After 2 washings in cold water (no fabric softener) there is still a shadow where I sprayed the Dyepress. Unfortunately I was aggressive on the area I sprayed and next time I won’t spray such a big area.
I have a question about the spray product you are using. Is that a necessary step for infusible ink or just sublimation? I just got a new Cricut Maker and accessories to go with it and infusible ink paper and pens were part of them accessories. Where can I buy this product?
What a great video. Thanks so much for sharing. I just ordered this and I’m excited too try the product. I went to Amazon first but it’s not available. However I was able to order it directly.
Can you premake shirts or do you need to the process every time you go to press a shirt? That way I can have some already with DyePress and all I have to do is press my imagine. I hope I worded this correct lol
I apologize for the delay in answering, but I wanted to check with my friend at DyePress to make sure and give you the correct answer. She said that you can pretreat shirts ahead of time and sublimate them at a later date..
This is exactly what I need!!! I've been wanting to use a Cricut Infusible ink for a design that I created. I want it on a dark gray shirt that has been bleached but the bleach technique doesn't work with polyester. I'm ordering this tonight! Thanks for the tutorial.
Loving what I am seeing. Which link will provide the spray bottle that you show in the video. I looked at both and neither show or mention the spray bottle. I haven't really dove into the infusible ink because of the limitation of only polyester shirts but now you have opened the doorway for all the t-shirt stock I have on hand. Thanks so much for sharing this!
Was hoping to see what the shirts look like after washing because that's the real issue for me. The 100% cotton tee can print colorful shirts, but it washes out in the first wash. How many washes will this last. If it says it will last for the whole life of the shirt, I don't understand how because it is a "coating" for the cotton fibers and if that gets worn off, won't the result be fading?
I was wondering if the Dyepress will work on mugs that are not sublimation? I was not sure. I seen that they had a product for wood tho. I ordered last night after watching your presentation. They sent an email that it was shipped today already!
I am having a problem with the area around the image being yellowed on white shirts where I sprayed? You can see my press lines. Any suggestions? What am I doing wrong?
make sure your heat press is the correct temp for the different steps and that it is the correct temp in general. It sounds like it's getting too hot. Also, make sure you're only spraying the area you plan to sublimate
@@LorrieNunemaker I have a big heat press Hottronix that I got from a retail sporting goods store that went out of business. Do you think it may be getting too hot? I am thinking it should not be any different from any other press? I am following the exact steps and it still yellows. Of course the spray does get a little out of line but not much. I washed the first one I pressed and it seemed to wash out, but I don't want to wash every 100% cotton shirt I make. Do you think I should turn down the heat? Or press it for less time?
Hi Lorrie. Boy does this open up the many possibilities. Can you use the Easy Press 2? Where can you order sublimation ink for a printer and the concentrated & spray bottle? What’s the cost for ink. & spray? Do you have to put a sheet between the shirt layers to prevent bleed through? Thank you!
Karen Carr I have products listed in the video description. As far as ink it depends which printer you use. You will have to google your printer and sublimation ink
Hi, Lorrie, I ordered the product and will be using it soon. I made the mistake of ordering RED shirts for family for Christmas, not realizing that the cute sublimation design I purchased on Etsy would not transfer that readily to red. It looks faded. Any tips? Or do I just tell the kids it's supposed to be subtle. I am not sure I want to go out and buy more t-shirts. Any suggestions appreciated Thanks! Mary
Lori, I’m so inspired by your videos! Always new, fresh diversified content! My kid’s have been encouraging me to start a channel.

As a Hands-on-Science Elementary Instructor (real job, lol) the 2020 spring Pandemic threw me into a whole new way of instruction and a steeper learning curve! Almost Blew my Mind!

Some like the chit chat, some like the straight to the point, some like the extremely edited and other want to see the mistakes, some are all about the glitzy effects and others just want to know how to do something.

Not sure I understand can you help me what is the difference between these 2, is it brand name or types of ink and if so what would be the difference... I am new to this type of printer... Plz n Ty SawGrass SG500 Printer (JP PLUS): SawGrass SG500 Printer (Swing Design):
Lol I posted photos on my TH-cam community page and in Facebook of the shirts after washing and drying. They showed no signs of fading, cracking or peeling. I won’t be doing a separate video just to show the shirts as I have quite a list of new projects to film
Not related to your project. But is your heat press directly on your printer? Is it not to heavy and hot on your Sawgrass? I was wondering in order to save place. Love your help with sublimation
My mind is completely blown away by this product. I started watching your video yesterday and went ahead and purchased 2 bottles of this stuff off do Amazon. I figured it might sell out quickly so, I decided I needed to get more than just 1 bottle. I’m completely new to Cricut and sublimation.

i do not understand why people have to be petty. I enjoy seeing your videos you are teaching so many people. You're videos are so so great
Where to get the poly t plus?
That's a game changer because lots of people don't like wearing 100% polyester. Thank you for your video.

Does the color stay vibrant after a wash

Hello Lorrie, will this solution work on dark 100% cotton ? Thx you
Vous êtes formidable, vos explications sont claires et nettes. I love you!
Thank you! Awesome video. I can't wait to try this out. I have a job pending where they really want 100% cotton so now I'll be able to accommodate them.
What is this product and where do you get it from.
Have you washed them and if so how many times.......
I am very new at this..where did you get the Iron on Transfer???
I think I’m confused so these sheets take the place of the ink that you would add the printer or do you still need a submlimatiin printer as well to work with the sheets - sorry still learning 😩
I tried out dyepress and desizer with a infuiser sheet and easy press 2 to 100% cotton woven fabric and it turned out perfect.
Edith Small isn’t it fun!
I notice on some of my white shirts I get over spray cause a shinny spot or more outside of the image, how do I fix that? Thanks.
This is a game changer! Been using it for almost a year!
So basically you mix it and spray it and after you heat set it, you can sublimate on it like on polyester? That’d be amazing! In your experience, Does it work as good as in the video?
@@nancyeaguiar yes it does.... it’s my secret for the past year!
@@kutepookie do you use normal copy paper as well?
@@Jojoeyjo yes I use laser copy papers...
I’m getting stains on mine from the spray please help, what can I do to avoid that .
How do they wash? I just got a sublimation printer. I heard they colors fade quickly.
Have you washed the shirts you did since the video and how did they come out?
Can you use this product on cotton/poly blends? I have tons of items I ordered. I have not used them yet, and I cannot return, so money wasted.

Wow! Thank you!!! I'm so excited to try this! I just ordered mine to go with the infusible ink bundle that I got last week!
Just found your channel. Did you say you made you sublimation print on COPY PAPER???
Hi , can l use my Cricut easy press to seal the product into the shirts? Also what other things can you prime with this product? Thank you so much💖
Yes you can. As far as other products, this mixture is meant for fabric.
Hi do you pre wash the shirt
Does it turn the shirt yellow?
The shirts look stiff in the treated areas. Does that change after washing?
She literally said it's stiff until you wash it....
Could you, on a colored shirt, do the design in white, and then do in a colored print over the white?
Printers don’t print white

Keep in mind - dark grey will show through the image because the ink is translucent
Lorrie Nunemaker I plan on applying it to the bleached out part
Thanks for sharing this great informative tutorial Lorrie
Can you use a cricut easy press to make the shirts or do you need an actual heat press?
Can you use a iron if you don't have a heat press
Would sublimation paper work better than the printer paper
I’m so excited! I can’t wait to get in this product!
How long does it take to dry before you press your item?
So what machine i have to buy for this? I already have a sublimation printer but guessing this one dont use it
That's awesome!! We really needed this! Thanks for sharing!

No need for the wood product, you use those laminate sheets on anything else. :)
How long does the inks last using the sawgrass printer? Would I get similar results using an epson et printer converted to sublimation inks?
Do u need to put parchment paper inside shirt when printing

It doesn't apparently
This was SO helpful!! Thank you so so much can’t wait to get my spray to do this too.
Has the shirt's color faded at all after several washes. The ones with dyepress product
It does fade a bit overtime but not a lot. It’s not as vibrant as it was but still fully colored after many washes
How do you avoid scortch marks
I’ve not had an issue with scorch marks but to remove them you can spray with peroxide
Can you make a video of a before and after first, second, and third wash?

Wowzers! Super glad I came across this tutorial! Thank you!!!! Can you use a Cricut Easy Press instead of a heat plate? Thanks again.
how does it do after washing? ive seen where others have tried and after 1 was its extremely faded.
It does fade some overtime but not excessively by any means.

Does it fade over time faster than polyester?
Yes. It will fade. Polyester does not fade
