I followed the instructions & still have issues. Some of the pieces did not adhere to the shirt & lifted off with the plastic sheet. I attempted to reapply them to the shirt & they were still peeling up @ the corners. Any advice?

It's strange how at beginning of this video it states that it can be used with any inkjet printer with sublimation ink yet the following is in red text on their website. "Please Note: This product is only recommend for the Sawgrass Virtuoso sublimation printer with SubliJet or EasySubli ink."
The manufacturer of the paper is unable to provide support for printers other than Virtuoso. Since the video was made a few years ago, there has been an increase in converted printers and sublimation inks that do not offer a print profile. Without being able to register how much ink is applied to the paper, the results are inconsistent. The Virtuoso offers a Forever print profile which regulates the amount of ink applied to ensure the application.
So it's only been 1 wash, the peeling and cracking has started. It's about 3 dollars a sheet for a slightly better look but stability like heat transfer paper for dark colors. IMO it's slightly thicker and weedable but pretty much it's dark transfer paper. Dark Transfer Paper😬
We have not experienced cracking with this product but will be happy to look into this further for you and determine why it may have happened. Please send us an email to service@proworldinc.com along with photos so we may assist you further.
For best results, you will want to use a white garment. Anything else may cause color-shifting in your design. The shade of pink and the color(s) of your design will need to be considered. The darker the garment, the more color-shifting there will be. For example, if you press a yellow design onto a red (or pink) garment, your result could be orange.
Do you have to contour cut the image? I have a full image I want to press on a hoodie. Can I still use this paper for a large image without contour cutting it?
Hi Antonio, You are not required to contour cut, but we do recommend contour cutting your design. Otherwise, you will press extra coating from the paper onto your garment.
Im glad you said that, cause I thought I did something wrong, the image felt really thick and bulky, it was too shiny too... I didn't like it all. Maybe I will try it on a more simpler image like letters only!
@@ShaRo430 Yes, it's great for letters. Not much use for anything else. If only there was a really thin version of this stuff (maybe as thin as Stahl's Premium Plus vinyl) I would by hundreds of boxes!
Unfortunately the subli-flex 202 is not recommended for an epson printer. Many customers with Epson sublimation printers have received good results using easysubli vinyl.
Screen printed transfers are created using a screen print method and plastisol ink. This type of transfer is created using a sublimation printer and inks.
Yes, you can use an Epson with sublimation inks. You can view print settings and application instructions here: www.proworldinc.com/media/pdf/SP-521-22-instructions.pdf
Ive tried this. To say's it's a matte finish is totally wrong. Its far too glossy. Colour and applying wise it"s easy and the colours are great. But after only 2 or 3 washes I found the dye from the shirt coming through the print. From what I've seen, it's not something I'd want to sell.

Need an inkjet printer as well as the cutter like the Cameo? Am I correct?
Ink jet printer will not work. You will need a sublimation printer and inks, along with a vinyl cutter that has the ability to contour cut.

Looks amazing!!
is pink considered a light or dark color

This stuff is great, but it's just too thick for lager designs.

What type of ink? I have a SG400 with Chromablast currently in it.
Any sublimation inks can work with the Forever Subli-Flex. Chromablast will be fine.
@@ProWorldInc I have Printer Jacks Ink and it says 392F for the transfer temp, Can I still use the subliflex 202?
@@lissettez-f1643Forever states this paper will work with all sublimation inks.
What type of paper are you using for an epson 2720 sublimation printer?
Unfortunately the subli-flex 202 is not recommended for an epson printer. Many customers with Epson sublimation printers have received good results using easysubli vinyl.
Is this what people use and call is screen print “transfers” ?? This is neat!
Screen printed transfers are created using a screen print method and plastisol ink. This type of transfer is created using a sublimation printer and inks.
Looks good thanks
May I print it with my epson et16500 with sublimation ink? Which paper I must to choose for it?
Yes, you can use an Epson with sublimation inks. You can view print settings and application instructions here: www.proworldinc.com/media/pdf/SP-521-22-instructions.pdf
Do u use registration marks
Yes, you will contour cut around your design in order to remove unwanted paper.
It's very difficult for me to get my cameo 4 Pro read the registration marks. Do you know any tips to solve that please
Why is it so hard to weed out???
We recommend adjusting your cut settings and creating a test cut. It is possible there may not be enough force, making the weeding process difficult.

To reduce the dye migration use 100% cotton fabric.
This is rubbish, says you have to place it straight away but it smudges, also peels off, wasted half a pack now, Dont buy this,
