I did not know you can sublimate on white vinyl! This would a fun project for a box of plain ceramic tiles in my craft closet! Thanks!
You made this so simple. I have watched others and they made it seem so complex. Thank you so much , now I can use my vinyl and finished my see thru tumblers.
You don’t say how you get to the blanks section in 143 vinyl

I sublimated directly onto the acrylics. Love this method as well...
How?
@user-st3uf3pv9o I do too, just sublimate exactly as you would normally, then run under water to take off the stuck paper on the acrylic
How to keep from vinyl melting without losing the bright colors from sublimation
@@sherylbiberos7049 every step is shown in the video
Little confused... you made a sublimation design and pressed it onto regular vinyl??? That's so cool!!
Yep thats exactly what I did !
very nice video. I am having an issue with the ink pushing through the vinyl. the top looks faded but the adhesive side looks great. lol. any advice would be greatly appreciated.
Possibly using too much pressure. I had that issue when I was too firm. Also you may just have a lot of ink on your paper so play with those printer settings a bit
Can I use my inkje printer with SUBLIMATION paper please.
No. It has to be sublimation ink and sublimation paper to work
Hi I Have you or can I sublimate on the oracal transparent perinate vinyl? I am trying it but not working very well. Doesn't want to sublimate. Thanks.
I no longer use oracal so I have not tried it. I have done it on clear starcraft and it’s ok. Its never going to be super bright because the ink is transparent and so is the vinyl
I have a question… why didn’t you just sublimate directly onto the blank? Why did you sublimate on the vinyl and then stick to the blank?
Because the type of acrylic these were made with at the time would not allow sublimation. It also tends to warp acrylic when sublimating on to it
Thank you for the video. Since you mentioned that you are horrible at placing vinyl, try the wet method. Put water and a drop of dish detergent in a spray bottle. Spray your substrate before applying the vinyl and that will allow you to be able to move your vinyl around until you get it in the perfect spot.Then squeegee the excess water out and let dry. It will be stuck whereever you placed it once dry.
I have a video showing the wet method :) I do need to try it with acrylics at some point
You should just sub to the coaster and then put the white backing
That is another option to do this. However I did it and the flowers did not show as much as I would have liked them do. It’s all personal preference
I will join in with many others and say thank you for your wonderful tutorials!! You are very precise, to the point and give accurate descriptions. So refreshing! Thank you
I tried this several times but my transfer kind of sticks to the vinyl leaving white on top. What could be the problem? Using the white oracle 651 340° at 25 sec .
I am a newbie, i have joined your group and went ahead to download the info on your vidieo on colour strips paid my fee but nothing happened, need help
I don’t know what fee you are talking about or where you are trying to download from.
Rapid-Tac spray works wonders letting you position the vinyl. Let dry and vinyl is stuck on and well positioned.
This is EXACTLY what I needed today. I'm going to cover up a company logo on a swag giveaway. Now I'll have some insulated bags to take milk products home from the grocery store (without advertising).
Thank you so much for being so detailed! I’ve tried before and had some success with my mini heat press but not the big one I just got from a friend. I am trying to make a Beetlejuice sign and want a specific design so this will help! Thank you!
Do you have to have a sublimation printer and sublimation ink to make these
Yes but you can also order preprinted sheets from Etsy or lots of vendors on the internet
Thank you for the video. The 651 does not need the laminate to sub? Trying to make bumper stickers. Would this be the best method?
This is not oracal 651 this is Starcraft hd but no white permanent vinyl does not require a laminate
And no this will fade quickly it is not for outdoor use
I'm a Newbie and LOVE all your tutorials. Thank You!
Thank you so much! I ran out of color toner in my laser printer but needed a custom sheet of vinyl for a teacher gift! This has saved the day!
I am totally trying this today. Thanks so much Corinne for showing this!
I did sublimation on start-craft and it turned great
Also, is that permanent vinyl?
Yes
How can you sublimate on htv PLAIN white vinyl NOT GLITTER. Ive tried and barely any colour transfers. Im using cotton baby suits not polyester in Australia.
You can’t. It’s not a polyester product
Why specifically Oracle 651
I didn’t use oracal 651 in this video I used Starcraft HD and it doesn’t have to be that specific brand that’s just the brand I use and I like the best this will work on removable vinyl as well
I did this and the sublimation paper left a film in the vinyl so the words are dull. How do I fix that?
Use a baby wipe and clean it or put it under water and wipe with a damp rag or sponge
@@CorinneBlackstone Thanks Corrine! I had a mild clorox wipe, and it seemed to work but when it dried the opaque film was still there.
@@CorinneBlackstone can this technique work with glass
@@debbiepozun3469 yes you can apply the vinyl
to glass and yes you can clean glass like this too
Love these. I am assuming you could do this on the square ceramic coasters from Lowe’s or Home Depot? Do they need to be sealed? Thanks so much!
The ceramic tiles could be done yes since it’s just vinyl applied to the top. They do not need to be sealed
@@CorinneBlackstone awesome. Thank you!
@@CorinneBlackstone could you please inform us on what temp and time to put the easy press AND mini easy press? TYSM for this vid. I FINALLY got an answer on sublimating on vinyl. New subscriber now 🥰🥰🥰
@@officermeyer exactly the time and temp I used in the video.
Thank you for answering my question
I learned so much! I wish my files were as organized as yours… 😂
LOL It took a long time to be so organized
Would this work for making labels to go around plastic water bottles? Also, what brand of 651 vinyl did you use?
It should work. I wouldn’t do it though. A lot of work when you could just do print then cut. 651 is a brand from oracal. This is Starcraft hd
Corrine, followed video step by step and each time (tried 4 times, different temp, diffent times) and each time the vinyl warps (wrinkles) any ideas?
Make sure you are pressing very firmly with a hard surface. Also depending on brand it may be a littler different
Hi there, when I press the a sub onto the vinyl for the recommended time frame it doesn’t come out vibrant. It’s very dull. Any idea why?
You may need to adjust the time and temp a bit.
Are these water proof as I would like to use this idea for a picture on a graduation sign. Would not want the sublimation to run. Great job !
They are waterproof! I washed these to check!
@@CorinneBlackstone thank you so much !
Butcher paper? Wouldn't parchment be better as it's not wax coated and can handle 450f
No butcher paper is not wax coated and is thicker than parchment paper. You need to be sure you are using the non coated butcher paper but it is 100% than parchment paper
I am not sure why I am having such a problem with my sub paper not coming off of the vinyl. I am using oracal 651
It may be overheating it but if it doesn’t come off let it cool completely then clean it with a little water and a rag or a baby wipe
Love your name…my daughter is also Corinne. ❤️
Thank you for sharing this. I never realized that you could sublimate on vinyl! 🤩 I really appreciate the way you teach, well done! Thorough, accurate, pleasant, no frills, just a great video.
Now i have to go craft to make money so i can buy a new printer. 😉
Excellent! You have the best instructions that I've found.
Extract all 🤯😳 mind blown 😮
Wonderful idea. Can make window clings this way. So awsome
Just came across this lovely 😍. Will any white permanent vinyl work?
As far as I know yes.
does the sublimation stay on well even outdoors? I want to make new dash decals for my tractor and it will be exposed to the elements
So far mine has but it’s been winter so not a ton of sun.
So you can sub on white adhesive? I know you can’t on htv so I never tried adhesive.
You sure can. Clear too
Hi all! I have the Cricut Explorer and the Easy Press 2. I am trying to make different designs with print and cut feature on the cricut. I have seen several videos out there. Do I need sublimation coasters? I seen I could use Laminate If my coaster are ceramic. Also do I need a sublimation printer???? I thought you could use an Inkjet and then print , cut then press. I am so confused. Thanks
You are talking about two completely different things. Sublimation needs to be done with sublimation ink and printer plus sublimation paper and a polyester coated blank or material. Print then cut can be done with an inkjet printer and printable products. You MUST have a sublimation printer to do sublimation designs. This is a process where the ink is heated into a gas and then it dyes the fabric or coating of the blank. Using inkjet means you print onto a product that is made to be printed on and then place it ontop of the blank.
Thank you for the video, this is really helpful
Can I do that method on wood to
Not exactly. Some wood requires a laminate for it to be sublimated on. Now if you mean can you place vinyl like this on wood absolutely! :)
i didn't know this was a thing! i would suggest Not using cheaper sub paper (i had some lying around and my better paper is in storage right now) but that paper stuck to the vinyl
The paper can stick to the vinyl just use a baby wipe or wet cloth it comes right off
How do you do this without the sub paper sticking to the vinyl? Every time I have tried it has stuck and when it's peeled off it has a faded look.
You may need to adjust your pressure. And don’t peel the paper off get the paper wet using a damp rag and rub it off. Works better that way
This is a great way to make short-run stickers or decals. Thanks for sharing your knowledge and talent!
What would be the purpose of putting sublimation on vinyl? i'm new to sublimation
Vinyl is waterproof a lot of people will sublimate on clear to use in place of waterslide which requires a lot more work. Also you can make your own permanent patterned vinyl this was as well.
Any reason why you uploaded to Canva in lieu of Cricut?
Cricut really is terrible for printing sublimation. The color isn’t great and it wastes ink and materials
How much pressure do you use and what amount of cool down time did you use here?
Medium pressure and I just let it cool until I can touch it
Is the sublimation ink waterproof?
Yes it is
Any issues with durability or ink run/fade after a while??
Nope none at all. I’ve been using these in my truck since I made them have washed them a bunch of times they still look good as new
Can you sublimate a picture to be used on 100% cotton or is it just for stickers?
This is adhesive vinyl not for fabrics. You can use this method for cotton shirts th-cam.com/video/7S6LFVU8_VA/w-d-xo.html
So just to be clear you can sub on any white or clear vinyl? I ordered frosty clear from heat press nation, will that work?
It should work. As I have not worked with it myself I can't be 100% sure but I don't see any reason it wouldn't.
Do you mind me asking where are you getting all your licensed images? I want to find a place to buy some images but that is on the legitimate side especially when coming to things like this.
All the places I get my images is listed in the video description. There’s a whole list of all good places with commercial use license. I hope that helps! :)
But does it wash off? Also, have you ever tried the parchment paper method to align your vinyl properly?
No it does not wash off and yes I use that in a lot of my videos
can you put white vinyl onto it and sub later?
Yes. This acrylic should be able to stand the heat
Do you use any spray or brush on sealer for the sublimation designs. I have seen products on amazon but have not seen where folks have used them.
No. Those are very gimmicky and they don’t last especially on things that get washed
Hi!! Do you think the sublimation would work on white iron on vinyl ?
No it does not. You need glow in the dark, holographic, or glitter
Did you put anything on the coaster to protect the photo from fading?
Disregard, I just saw the same question and answer above. I am so excited to try this method.
so does it mean I can also sublimate on white HTV ?
No white htv does not work
is there a clear vinyl that is compatible with dye sub?
So to be honest I don't know ton about dye sub and how it may differ from sublimation ink I use. I would image from what I have read that the starcraft HD should work but I can't promise it will
Great information.
dont those coasters already have the sublimation coating?
These are made with cast acrylic so yes they could be sublimated on however because they are clear it would be hard to see the design or you would need to do something light colored on the other side to make it show. There are lots of ways to decorate a blank this is just one of a million options
Question: could you sublimate directly on the acrylics?
Yes as long as it is cast acrylic you can sublimate on it
Hi Corinne, will this work with Starcraft HD glossy white vinyl?
Yes it does
i find you amazing thank you
I had no idea. Great video.
Corinne, Can you do this method for making vinyl decals for wreath centers??? Like a 10x10 size or larger?
Yes absolutely. You may need to piece together the print if your printer doesn’t print that large but it can be done
Thank you!!!
I thought that the white vinyl showed the brightest sublimation on the sticky side, like when you do the dollar tree glass cutting board.
I haven’t tried that yet but I will!
Thanks for the quick response. I tried this process and it came out very dull on my 651 any suggestions. I tried 1 press and 2 presses.
You only press once. Pressing any longer will dull the image as it reactive a the ink to a gas. If it’s coming out dull you may need to press it a bit longer
@@CorinneBlackstone I pressed it once then pulled edge and was dull so tried a little more
Seems like the paper is sticking to the vinyl. I use a sub. I tried wiping and came off but still dull.
Can you sublimate on white HTV? I know I can sublimate on white flock HTV and Glitter, but how about plain white/clear HTV?
No not regular white. We’ve tried it doesn’t work :(
Thank you@
Is this regular permanent vinyl?
Yes it is.
I've tried this so many ways, but I still get like a weird vintage look on my vinyl from my image. What am I doing wrong? 😕
If you mean faded you’re not heating enough if you mean like distressed or cracked looking you may need to wipe it off with a baby wipe
It's like distressed looking and weird. I've tried going 60 seconds, 40 seconds, higher heat, and lower heat. Idk what else to do 🥺
I love knowing we can sublimate on vinyl. Now can you figure out a way for us to do sublimation on HTV?
I have several videos on subbing on htv. You can use glitter holographic and glow in the dark
@@CorinneBlackstone thank you. I have glo in the dark.
Yayyy another craft tutorial! 🥳🥳🥳🥰
I get white splotches when I try to sublimate on oracle 651 white or clear - any ideas why? some of it wipes off but not all of it
You may need to adjust the temp a bit
@@CorinneBlackstone would you recommend higher or lower
@@TJ-yk8tq lower
Would this work with neenah transfer paper?
No clue never heard of it
When you print the image, what type of paper are you printing on? Transfer paper?
It’s printed on Hayes sublimation paper
Can you sublimate both sides?
No. The other side is adhesive so it will stick to the paper
So will the clear vinyl outline show up under epoxy
I find if you don’t sand it doesn’t but sanded it seems to
Why are you using a pillow on your press?
To make sure that the press has good pressure
Thank you! Love this video.
Hi 😁 is the finished product waterproof?
Yes
Wet method.
Is it better to use matte clear vinyl or doesn’t it matter?
It really doesn’t matter. Whatever you like best. The clear is going to need a solid color for the images to show up really well though. Like you’ll need to put it on something solid
Great video tutorial! Thank you. May I ask what transfer tape you used to remove it from vinyl and adhere to the coaster?

@@CorinneBlackstone Thanks so much for the quick response. Much appreciated!
Hiii, so ordered my ink and paper from your previous epson sublimation conversion video. I love everything so far and you are great at teaching. However the bleeding is killing me after sublimating! I used like 4 sheets of butcher paper and teflon sheets (top and bottem) and I actually got bleeding on my brand new press. I was just shopping around to see if maybe its the ink or that paper. The paper setting was printed exactly the way you showed it and it had been printed days beforehand so it had time to dry. Have you tried different sub paper? I am desperate for help!
Hates paper is what I have been using and printers jack. I am not getting bleeding at all
@@CorinneBlackstone Thank you so much! I figured that was the problem.
Will the ink wash off if you used as a car decal?
Nope I’ve had mine on my truck for a couple month still holding good
Love these! I have a few so I’m going to try it!
Hey! Thanks so much for showing step by step. I’m going to try it. Can you do both sides? Thanks
You can’t sublimate on both side of the vinyl but you can decorate both sides of the car coaster
@@CorinneBlackstone yes that’s what I meant. Sorry I wasn’t clearer. Thanks again. Gonna try it. 😊
so do you think sublimating on that vinyl on those coasters would be better than laminated sticker paper?
I think it’s a fun alternative
@@CorinneBlackstone it's always a bonus to be able to sublimate on anything I agree
is there a reason you keep your heat press at 325 instead of the recommended 380-400 for regular sublimation onto clothing etc?
Yes after many tests the normal temp is too hot for the vinyl so you need to do this at a lower temp so you don’t damage the vinyl
@@CorinneBlackstone what pressure did you use for the heat press?
@@amycicak5567 medium
Would this work with infusible ink?
Yes infusible ink is just pre printed sublimation
Can you use the ceramic car ones for this project?
Yes you can add the vinyl to the ceramic
Love this!
great tutorial! TFS
