Basically you make an outline of your image with HTV, then place the sublimation image on top of the HTV. The htv sticks to cotton and the image sticks to htv.
Love easysubli! I use it on my cotton tees and washed them several times. No peeling. Hasn't faded. I made mistakes in the beginning. But it is worth it.
Knowing that htv can be layerd, I took some white siser easyweed and heat pressed on a piece of fabric just long enough to tack it and peeled off the clear plastic sheet. I then put a piece of htvront clear sublimation vinyl on top, tacked that and then also peeled clear sheet. After cooling, I put my sublimation picture on and pressed at about 200 for 60 secs. which was not hot enough for my image to completely transfer. I reapplied my image and pressed at 350 for 60 secs. I got ghosting because of previous removal of image, but it worked!!! Don't know if this works out cheaper than siser easysubli but I used what I had on hand.
Great video! I think I would line up the sublimation on the holographic before putting the holographic on the shirt. It looked like the image was about 1/4"- 1/2" to low. I just don't think the 2 second tack down was worth not being able to see exactly where the image would be added.
I tried the Holographic hack and it did not turn out as I would have liked - however you used different settings - so I'm going to try again. Thank you for doing these - super helpful!
Guys for whatever reason I'm not getting notices of your videos!!! Crystal 🔮 this is another great video! The design is cool on the holographic vinyl. TY for sharing!!
Good video. Did not know cam sublimate on holographic vinyl. Will give it a try. Have use subli vinyl and it works beautifully. Only downside is it isn't flat and smooth as vinyl. Color lasts long.
awesome...this is very informative. I am real close to getting a sublimation printer and this has been the best video so far I have seen. Thanks so much.
Hi Karla! Thank you for your feedback! What types of projects do you prefer? We are working on ideas for new tutorials so any project ideas would be great! - Dawn
@@DesignBundles I'd really like to see more Sublimation hacks on DARK 100% cottons (shirts, sweatshirts hoodies). Black, navy, red, dk. grey etc. Thanks so much!
All your videos are great, thanks. It is good to see different ways of sublimation. I have tried a number but wearing the t shirt is not easy as it is either stiff or the logo is creased. The best and easy method is just colour on a white poly t shirt. 😍
Thank you for the fun & awesome files. I truly appreciate your informative videos as well. I would love to see a video of how to edit it before we have completely brought the image into design space. Much, much appraise to you and your team of people. Thank you. Shelly
I sublimated on cricut brand white glitter htv with cricut brand galaxy infusable ink transfer sheet. After a few washes, it bled. There is no white boarder anymore, but that's alright, I guess. I just hate that it didn't stay the way I made it since it ended up being a $50 hoodie.
Can ANYONE tell me exactly what all I need to start this business? I was looking at the VEVOR Heat Press. But what else do I need? What kind of printer do I need? And do I want sublimation or DTF? Because I will be printing tshirts for a musician so probably a lot of black Tshirts. Can someone help me please?
This is an awesome video, you do an outstanding job giving directions to newbees like me. The first shirt that I attempted came out really dull and there was A LOT of ink still on the sublimation paper. Do you think this is from low temp/not enough cook time in the press?
I thought the same thing lol. This video was confusing and normally I can pick up on 1st watch but think I need to watch this few times to get to grip with it. I liked the design but when pressed on holographic one it did ruin it what other colour htv back grounds can u sublimate on . On dark fabric
Great video. Question for you. I am new to sublimation and want to sublimate on dark fabric. Have you ever done a comparison of Sisers Easy Subli vs HTVRont? From what I am seeing these seem to be the best 2 products but I haven't found a video comparing the 2.
@designbundles I followed your steps everything worked but my ink looks faded/dull. I found videos on changing color setting in printer did that. I am using the Epson ET2800 printer and koala sublimation paper and cricut heat press. What am I doing wrong???
Very nice video , I’m trying to do this and I seem to be running into a problem, when I sublimate my image keeps coming out too big for the paper and I was wondering how I can fix this issue , what’s the biggest size image I can use and how can I center it so that the full image fits on the sheet, thanks in advance for your help
So my question is I want to sublimate a dry fit dark color. How can I do so? I know I would need to add white htv vinyl underneath but will that work for dark dry fit shirt. I know there's tons of videos with cotton dark shirts.
Hey Tracie! Would you mind sharing a screenshot of your options with mail@designbundles.net? We can better help troubleshoot through email or chat! - Dawn
Hello, hopefully someone can help me, I have followed all the steps and watched so many videos with no help. My issue is when I finish ironing on the sublimation, the final product comes out wrinkled. I don’t prewash, I’ve taken off the lint, changed heat settings, tried different vinyl, but it’s always the same outcome. Whenever I sublimate with just sublimation on a light shirt I have no issue. But when I do it with iron on vinyl as a layer, it’s always wrinkles at the last step. Hopefully someone has some answers
So I have a converted epson that I use for sublimation. Would this work? I have bought a bung from your website for tumblers but I'd like to make some shirts when I get a flat press
I used holographics once and my design crinkled so much after the first wash that you can barely make out the design. I hope I just did something wrong because I love the idea. I will try it again.
Anyone ever had your EasySubli COMPLETELY change colors after pressing?! When it first printed, the colors looked like they were going to be accurate after I dried it under the press and weeded it but after I pressed it, the taupes and pinks and blues turned to yellows and olives and grays :( Direct printed to easy subli then pressed at 311° for 15 seconds with medium pressure.
I'm not positive, but I would be concerned that drying it under the press may have been a little too hot and messed with the inks before they had a chance to sublimate. Only a guess though.
I have 100% black polyester aprons. I used EasySubli......315 degrees for 15 seconds. The EasySubli looked great. Then I used A-Sub that was put through the printer with sublimation ink. I ironed the A-Sub at 400 degrees for 60 seconds. It looks terrible. It looks like everything melted together. The colors are terrible. Any suggestions, please?
Hi there! We would have suggested the same time and temp. You may want to reach out to the manufacturer directly to see if they suggest a lower temp or a shorter time - Dawn
I'm fairly new to HTV, but one of the things concerning me is that I've seen warnings about not pressing HTV at too high of a temperature or for too long, but then I also see people doing sublimation over HTV like this, with a significantly higher and longer exposure to heat than HTV instructions would have you follow. Is it generally fine to press HTV at that long of a time at 400 degrees? I press my shirts at 320 for 20 seconds, and press each shirt twice(before and after peeling) and the htv sets really well and looks great, but my concern is with longterm durability from the adhesive.
So I am new at this. I am trying your inkjet trick on a white shirt but if I was putting a plain white logo on a black shirt, do I have to use the white background?
Hi Ellie! You can personalize any of your designs within your own design program! If you like a design with the spelling of Nana, you can reach out to the designer who may be able to change it for you! - Dawn 🙂
I cannot get my Subli Jet ink to dry on the Easy Subli. I have tried the hover method, letting it dry for days, a blow dryer--nothing works. When I sublimate the ink smears. Do you. have any hints or ideas? I have wasted so much easy subli and shirts. Thanks
What was the sublimation paper you used? I used a sublimation paper on shiny iron vinyl and the paper stuck to the vinyl. I had to use water and scrub brush to get the sublimation paper off. Please help.
Hi! Just trying to get in the swing of things with Silhouette since it's easy to forget how to use the software! We are working with Crystal on bringing more Silhouette videos so stay tuned! - Agata
Hi Diana! Wrinkles are easy to remove after the wash by lightly going over the shirt with an iron or heat press, while being careful to not burn the image! - Dawn

Our apologies! You can actually slow the speed of the video in the settings by clicking the gear and then clicking "PlayBack Speed" - Dawn
That’s what I do. Works great!
Right. I’m more confused
Basically you make an outline of your image with HTV, then place the sublimation image on top of the HTV. The htv sticks to cotton and the image sticks to htv.
Also, start and stop as you do the steps in the video while you do the project “with her”!
Love easysubli! I use it on my cotton tees and washed them several times. No peeling. Hasn't faded. I made mistakes in the beginning. But it is worth it.

Why does it look like the holographic vinyl changed colors after pressing? It has an orange tinge instead of the pearlescent color

Hi there! You may need to adjust the amount of ink through your print manager! - Dawn
what is everything i need to start, printer, software, PC requirements, shirt press?
I went by instructions but my paper sublimation design did not peel off of HTV, it stuck to the base (offset) design
Can I do HTV on a Modal 68 Polyester 29 Spandex 3 shirt?
What was the purpose of saving as a PDF instead of justing printing from Cricut design space?
I thought the same thing lol. This video was confusing and normally I can pick up on 1st watch but think I need to watch this few times to get to grip with it. I liked the design but when pressed on holographic one it did ruin it what other colour htv back grounds can u sublimate on . On dark fabric
That made no sense to me. Why not just print initially?
Can you tell me what is this program Canvas?
I'm trying to not use a cricut. Can I print and iron on dark fabric. With these sister sheets
Great video. Question for you. I am new to sublimation and want to sublimate on dark fabric. Have you ever done a comparison of Sisers Easy Subli vs HTVRont? From what I am seeing these seem to be the best 2 products but I haven't found a video comparing the 2.
Could you have also cut the design on cricut after printing to make lining up easier?
Yes you definitely could! - Agata

It’s it technically sublimating on the htv not the garment
Yes, technically 😊 - Dawn

Sheesh I need this in slow mo! Lol
Ye but u dont need sublimation for that design.u could just cutt in htv vinyl
U just made more work qnd it cost more
Thanks so much for the full video. So you are able to use siser easy subli with regular sublimation ink? I thought it only worked with Easy Subli ink.
Hi Kathy. No you can use it with any sublimation ink. We only tried sawgrass so far but it works perfect! - Agata
Anyone ever had your EasySubli COMPLETELY change colors after pressing?!

I'm not positive, but I would be concerned that drying it under the press may have been a little too hot and messed with the inks before they had a chance to sublimate. Only a guess though.
The colors are supposed to get brighter with sub ink because the heat turns the “ink” into a gas.

Question, can you sublimate on the door mats that we do the flex seal on? If not do you know any type of door mat that can be?
The polyester gray and black doormats from Home Depot sublimate beautifully. Look for videos
You might be able to sublimate on the coir door mats however I'm not sure how well it would hold up as the substrate needs to be polyester. -Brittany
