    I have some 105 A-Sub but was recently told to go from 120 to 125 for tumblers. But I’ll try anything.
    But as a semi-newb trying to get past this issue it was really frustrating that you didn’t show the seam as you taped. I want to know if you overlap at all or if you try to cut it perfect enough that the edges but up together.

    Very cool, I'm kind of new at this and I've been struggling with this problem as soon as I'm done putting this comment in I'm ordering 105 paper Thank you so much I'm glad to see that you were so excited, it's fun isn't it?

    I am so happy I came across this video. I wondered if the paper weight had any bearing on the seam! Yours came out perfect. Thank you

    They look awesome. the color is beautiful and your seam is great. what do you do for the top and bottom edges to not have the uneven white part? thanks,

    Hi Amy.. May I ask what paper settings you use. I have this paper but using my 125 and 123 GSM paper settings makes then paper too wet.
    Should I use plain paper and maybe use high instead of best quality...or lower my print density?

    I am newer to sublimating tumblers and mugs. I ordered A-sub paper 105 just because it seemed like a happy medium between the most expensive 125 weight and the economy version. My mugs and tumblers have all turned out well. No complaints. I haven’t tried 125 but I don’t feel the need to and it’s more expensive

    ❤ Big difference in the paper weight, I notice you didn't tape around the top or bottom edges before pressing, is taping around absolutely necessary? I'm a newbie and need expert advice

    I've also seen a 80 gm sublimation paper - I wonder how that would be. Is there such a thing as too light?

    TexPrint DT Is 105gsm and is used for Hard and soft substrates. you use 120gsm for heavy ink release

      @sunnybunny222 10 หลายเดือนก่อน

      hi. i just came across this video. what do you mean by heavy ink release? do you mean something like black or dark colors? or does it have a different usage? thanks so much.

  • @swood674

    What printer are you using? I have the Sawgrass 500 and the ink is gel based so I need the heavier paper for a better ink release. I will try the Pinch Perfect and see if that helps.

    • @amycreates1075
      @amycreates1075  ปีที่แล้ว

      I have the SG400 but so far the 105g paper has been working much better for me personally.

      I do overlap a very small part. Typically about a quarter inch of overlap.

    • @amycreates1075
      @amycreates1075  ปีที่แล้ว

      Same- i just trim those off. My usual design size is 9.3x8.2inches in photoshop and I print off at that size and then just trim the white off and it will wrap around at the right size.

      Before and after you rotated your tumbler we could see a gap between the paper and the tumbler along the edge of the cup. I can’t understand how it successfully transferred without under-processed imagery. This is my first time to your videos. I hope I’ll find a newer update addressing some of those same areas.

      @amycreates1075  ปีที่แล้ว

      Mine are 9.3x8.2 inches in photoshop when I design them and then I print them at that same size. There is some excess white around the edges but I just trim that off and the design will wrap around at the right size.

    Going to try this paper, bought the pinch perfect and does not work threw it away. I'm guessing when 2 solid colors meet like black on black most of the times you will get a seam line.

    • @amycreates1075
      @amycreates1075  ปีที่แล้ว

      I'm sorry the Pinch Perfect didn't work for you...I think you're right- the darker colors (like black) are just hard in general with seam lines but I do think this helps...but thats just my opinion.

      I have a couple of times but I normally do not tape the top or bottom. I do the one line down like in the video and that has worked very well for me so far. 😊
