Thank you :) Your video was the last step in a journey several hours in the making with at least half a dozen tests at different times and temps. Yours was the golden tick and I am so very grateful!
I’m so glad I found you. Your style is more like mine, nothing fancy in the background just getting things done and so down to earth. Keep it up I want to see all the things.
Great video thanks for the info, I am just getting into Sublimation and was wondering if this could be done so i looked up videos on here, so far your video explains it the best.
Hellooo! I'm so glad I recently stumbled across your channel! I'm enjoying your videos, thank you for making them! I was wondering if you have used these on cups & tumblers? If you have, how has the color & vinyl itself held up (particularly on the white) over multiple washings? If decals seem to be successful, if you had to guess, how well do you think a full tumbler wrap would do if it was used as a way to save bad sublimation tumblers?
I’ve used them on cups and on cars! Lol they hold up the same as the would without the sublimation. A full wrap as in like a whole sheet sticker? I am not too sure but I don’t see why not! Though the white is kind of transparent so some of the old might show through. But it’s worth a shot!
Hi, you can use a hot gun and burn the image off and put a darker image over it. I do this all the time. My image was all black and the other was dark purple. I had 15 that came out wrong due to a faulty press. Just wanted to share.
@@CraftingUnedited does the ink last on cars? I've been really wanting to do full color car decals. I even bought some uv spray. But I thought I would have to print then cut printable vinyl and then put laminate on top.
To help with Rolliness put it on your heat press let top platen hover over it a few seconds or un til lyes flat don not shut platen just let it be above…let cool before adding sublimation… I do it while I’m printing my subs
What is the purpose in using sublimation vs inkjet? I was looking for a way to sublimate on white vinyl and adhering to cover up an already sublimated magnet. Is that possible with this method?
You need a cold lamination machine to make that work flawless or use a hand silicone roller that’s what I use for laminating stickers and it is perfect.
I just want to tell you that i absolutely just love your videos you remind me of myself bc i have like the same personality and sounds like this on a daily. But anywho dont think im a weirdo. Lmbo.
Thanks for the video - quick question. Is there a reason why you should sublimate onto vinyl sticker printer paper as opposed to just printing on the vinyl sticker paper and then cutting?
I tried on white vinyl but it's not oracal, it's another brand & the colors look dull. Could the reason be that or I'm doing something wrong? I did try on clear oracal 651 & the colors look a bit better.
I'm trying to figure out how to customize this for making the teardrop shape for the earring blanks on sale everywhere. If I make an adhesive sticker, I simply use Design Space and make sure to include an outline. If I want to still sublimate, directly onto the teardrop shaped blanks, I'm out of luck......right?
The pressure could be too much but it’s an easy fix! Just spray with a little water after a bit and gently wipe the paper off the vinyl, it should peel right off
Great video! Random question- does mod podge help vinyl blend into any surface? I have adhesive vinyl from the cricut on a pleather like material and I want it to blend in with the material. Thank you!
It does not, and if you use regular mod podge over vinyl it will loose its stick quicker. Especially Cricut vinyl (learned the hard way. It’s meant to not need a sealant you could try the acrylic sealer though, it’s used for water slides normally but I don’t see why it wouldn’t work for this purpose too. It will give it a little shine. It’s worth a test!
Hi, I just found your video. I have a sublimation printer, Oracle 651 and a heat press. From what I have read, temp is 345 degrees for 25 secs, let cool and test corner, if faded look on border line then press again for 15 secs. Once cooled, take Asub paper off and let the Oracle 651 cure. How long does it need to cure and does each sheet need to sit separately? Ie I can't stack the sticker sheets while curing correct? Then once cured you can cut them on Cricut? Or cut then cure? thanks
That happens sometimes. Either the lines aren’t dark enough or their too glossy. Try using a sharpie to darken them or scotch tape to make them less glossy.
I printed the sublimation design straight into the adhesive vinyl then used laminate on top of that and the colors actually popped. The only down side was the minor wrinkling.
I'm trying to figure out doing a big custom decal, with gradient colors, for an outdoor sign. Would this work for that?!! Which Oracal 651? Matte? Thank you so much for this!!
@@CraftingUnedited I'll have to go back and watch the whole video again. I feel like I missed a step somewhere. I have tried this 4 times today and same results.
When I press my sub on Oracal gloss white which I assume is what you are using mine come out very dull and with that gross texture, the glossy is gone. I'm not sure how people get such good looking results
You know, it’s taken me forever to get anything close to decent results. The truck is making sure your press is on point temperature wise, and that you are using oracle 651 and not a different brand (in my opinion)
@@CraftingUnedited Yeah I'm using a sheet of Oracal 651 gloss white I picked up from Michaels to test using the same (and varying temps) but when I peel it off not only are the colors not vivid but it also leaves that transfer paper texture/residue or whatever behind, which doesnt just wipe off or anything. =\
@@autofocuZ your temp sounds too high. You can take a piece of thermal laminate paper and press it on top of your oracal 651. Let cool. Take your mirror image and press on top of the thermal laminate paper and 651 that you've already pressed together. The sublimation image will now be on your glossy vibrant decal sticker paper. You're welcome
The vinyl will always shrink when it it put under heat. Even HTV shrinks (if you have ever done any type of layering you know) but What I recommend is making your offset a little larger or your image a tad smaller. The other way to minimize shrinking is to press multiple times at lower temps, but that is risky as well.
Hi, new here ✋ I tried sub in smart cricut vinyl and image was super vibrant, but once it sub it came out super matte I did 345°f for 30 seconds... do u know where I could've gone wrong?🤔
I’ve never printed into oracal 651, when you sublimate the ink into the vinyl it’s in it like forever. If you print on it it’s just on it and if I’m not mistaken it would scratch off or wipe off. I’m not 100% though.
You can print onto inkjet printable vinyl with regular inkjet printer and ink, HOWEVER... the quality won't be as crisp and vibrant as sublimation printing. You can only print on regular vinyl directly such as 651 with solvent or latex ink which you have to have a certain type of printer for that.
Yep, it doesn’t run (after it cures for a few hours ) and it doesn’t fade really at all! I’ve had a sticker on a cup that’s been hand washed countless times and it’s still good!
how can you cut your stickers on cricut after sublimation? to print it you have to mirror image and when you try to cut it image is not mirror anymore?
What do you mean printer is converted? I really want to do this. I have a cricut. Could you tell us or show us what you would use that vynal on? Would it work on iron on vinyl?
Thanks for this video - it has helped so much! I sublimated on 651 for the first time and have found that, though I'm putting the sub print on top of the 651 to heat press, the color actually goes through to the sticky side much more than it does on the face of the vinyl. I mean, A LOT more. Have any idea to get past that? I didn't see the back side of yours, as I recall, so I don't know if I'm unique in this. Help please?!
I’ve noticed that as well but I am not sure as to why. Why I did notice was that if you do shorter presses and not move the print (maybe 15-20s at a time) that happens less.
@@CraftingUnedited Have you tried matte vs. gloss vinyl? I'm wondering if that makes a difference. My failures were on gloss but I received some matte today so I'm going to try Wednesday night. Were you using gloss?
@@CraftingUnedited The type of vinyl made no difference. What I've started doing instead is putting laminate on the vinyl first, then sublimating on that. Works like a charm and you can press laminate to wood, tile, glass, in addition to vinyl.
So if making a window decal using orical 651 white . Does the image get mirrored before printing? My work tonight has no words if that makes a difference. One is going to be my dogs face and the other is a motorcycle on the center of a flag. Also is there a trick to get white to show on the clear vinyl. My dogs face is 99.9% white. See profile pic. Lol
Yea. Mirror because when you press it’ll be inverted otherwise. No white unfortunately unless you do a grayish white. Or if you have a colorblast printer that can print white (expensive af) Happy crafting!
@@CraftingUnedited i do use my laser printer on Oracal 651 permanent vinyl. Lots of people on youtube do too. Add a clear vinyl laminate for super long lasting outdoor decals. I then cut them with my Cricut or Scan n Cut.
@@ClownfishDepot Hello! Glad to help. I usually use a matte or glossy photo paper print setting, depending on whether the vinyl is matte or glossy :-) If you think of any other questions, let me know :-) Happy Crafting!
Can't wait to give this a try. I just bought a Cameo 4 so that I didn't have the cricut limitations on size for print and cut. I haven't tried it yet, but this would be a good project to test it. I was surprised that your temp was so low when you did the initial process. I thought it had to be at least 390 in order to convert the sub ink into a gas and onto the substrate?
Thanks for watching! Anything over 325 will transfer. If you do anything over 350 on the vinyl it will melt (I tested 22 different methods before posting this one).
I am using the ZENY 8 in 1 press from Amazon, if you look through my videos I did an entire unboxing, review and comparison to the Siser craft press. I really like the ZENY 8 in 1
@@CraftingUnedited Would you please clarify what time/Temp you actually use? In video you said 330 deg/25 sec. So far in comments, you have said 340 deg/20-25 sec. and 345 deg/15 sec.
Why not just put your vinyl in the press without the sublimation paper, first, to flatten it, then let cool, then repress with the sublimation paper? T^hat should help with the rolling... You can even set the temp way lower when flattening.
This woman is the most accurate and trustworthy, unlike some of the other folks on youtube that are either fake or waffling nonsense.

You can’t sublimate with regular ink. It won’t transfer onto the blank.

You can do either but if you don’t have that option this is a good back up option.

to get the roll out of the parchment paper before pressing vinyl I first press the parchment paper so it lays flat on my design

I believe it to be the Cricut vinyl. I’m not sure why but that seems to be the issue I have across the board with Cricut vinyl.
Have you tested how long the sublimation last on 651 in the sun? Thanks.
So far about 3 months in and going strong! However…I live in OHIO so that’s about all the sun we’re gonna get 🤣

How do you know what to put your heat press temp on to make these? And is it pretty much just like doing an iron on just ironing it to vinyl?
Basically, the temp I used was 345 for 15 seconds then let cool but don’t touch at all and press again for 15 more seconds.
Newbie here! So, when you sublimate onto the Oracle 651, does it become waterproof? The ink doesn’t run? How is it with fading?
Yep, it doesn’t run (after it cures for a few hours ) and it doesn’t fade really at all! I’ve had a sticker on a cup that’s been hand washed countless times and it’s still good!
How far do you hold the spray can from the stickers? I sprayed mine for the first time and it made the image bleed a little!
You want to make sure it’s completely dry, then also spray about 6”-12” away from the image. Like hairspray lol!
Hi nice video, can these be used as outdoor signs. In rain and sun?
Yes, absolutely. The oracal holds up really well in the elements!
Why don't you use printable vinyl if you are going to spray a sealer on the sticker afterwards?
You don't have to use the sealer. This was more of an experiment to show that is it possible to do it.
how can you cut your stickers on cricut after sublimation? to print it you have to mirror image and when you try to cut it image is not mirror anymore?
I’ll do a video on that one. The “cut” part is not mirrored. when you go to cut don’t select “mirror”
Magnets under neath use it to hold the butcher paper down while ur moving in position
Ya know…I actually have magnets for the Teflon but never thought to use for butcher too lol!! Thank you!

How is this screen so long? What type of mac is that?
Lol I have it connected to a second monitor. It’s not the Mac it’s the other monitor. My MacBook is too small for my projects.
What was the heat settings you used ?
345 for 15s at a time.
@@CraftingUnedited Would you please clarify what time/Temp you actually use? In video you said 330 deg/25 sec. So far in comments, you have said 340 deg/20-25 sec. and 345 deg/15 sec.
@@darrellB. the temp I have found that works best is actually 345 degrees
@@CraftingUnedited Thank you
What temperature did you set it at?
340 for 30s but I’ve since reduced to 20-25 seconds and peeking then repress if needed
Okay I need to make decal for a car. I guess I’m confused 🤦🏻♀️🤦🏻♀️ once they pull the backing they will be able to stick it if I use 651?? Correct
Yes, once they pull the backing it’ll stick to the window or car like a sticker
Thank you
You're welcome
i think im doing somethin gwrong i got it to print but no color.. i need the color
Do you have the image set to print then cut? If not it will only print in black or gray.
Thank you for the video!!
Of course!
What temp is your press set at?
If I remember right it’s at 275-300
Great Video😊
Thank you!
Why not just put your vinyl in the press without the sublimation paper, first, to flatten it, then let cool, then repress with the sublimation paper? T^hat should help with the rolling... You can even set the temp way lower when flattening.
I figured this out after I recorded!
Thank you 😊
You’re welcome!!!
Kinda wish you lived close so I could learn all the things lol
Guess I will just have to keep watching all the videos 👍😁
Awe! That could be great!
Never mind it’s working now and I can see it.
I’m glad!!
I usually just laminate my 651 then sub on it…
You can do that too! Just like to avoid extra steps lol. Thank you for the tip.
Can’t see the video
Oh no!
PRESS IT FIRST FOR 3-5 SEC
I’ll have to try it!!
son of a biscuit
Haha, thank you!!
dont do this to any adhesive vinyl... it makes hazardous gases, google thermal decomposition of pvc
Bad camera angle.
Sorry about that! I’m not a professional camera person. I just use a tripod lol.

Not being fresh . I had the same problem when I was doing it. Hard to do alone. Point it at the machine.
