DIY Tutorial: Reverse Canvas Sublimation

Learn a workaround for sublimating on 100% canvas WITHOUT using Laminate sheets or sublimation spray.
Materials used:
Stretched Canvas (Dollar Tree)
Sublimation printer (if you have infusible ink or sublimation ink markers, you can use that in lieu of printing a photo)
Heat press (I used Cricut EasyPress2)
Heat press Mat
Laser copy paper
regular copy paper
teflon sheet (optional)
Secret ingredient (watch the video :) )

great video have you ever tried the polycrylic mixed with water and do you think that would work also?

[@karbear04]

I haven't tried that, but I think it would probably work. Let me know if you try it!

[@marlonavilarojas1673]

nice video! I wanna try this with another acrilic sealer but the same tecnique, what about the canvas texture? it feels like fabric after the process? like a real art canvas when you touch it? or it feels like plastic texture?
thanks for your response!

[@karbear04]

The canvas texture doesnt change when using the spray. If you run your fingers over the picture, you can feel the fibers. The canvas does get a little stiff (only a little), but that is true with any paint you might put on a canvas.
Good luck!!

Just buy polyester canvas 🤦🤷🏽‍♂️

[@rustyneuron]

where can I buy it in bulk? Everything I find that is heavy enough is coated or treated in some way. It is so simple to just do this on polyester canvas. I have found it by the 11.8"x15" piece, but I would think I could buy it by the roll. Even the rolls 100% polyester material that goes into direct to fabric ink jet wide format printer are coated so as to make sublimation NOT possible. If you know of a place to get suitable gallery wrap 100% polyester canvas, untreated, in a roll please let me know. Thanks!
