One of the better videos, decent editing (I don't want 2 minutes and another 2 minutes of video pointed at the heat press).

I can't tell you just how much this video helped me. A few years ago I was at a closeout store (Marc's) and found 5 ROLLS about 24" X 3" diameter of laminate material for $2.99 each. These have just been sitting on my shelf gathering dust & occasionally laminating important documents. WOW, the possibilities that you have opened for me are ASTOUNDING! Thank You So Much! I can't wait to try this process! My opportunities are almost endless & I probably have enough laminate for the rest of my life!

@SouthpawsStudio 3 года назад

Always glad to hear it!

@lyricwritertoo 3 года назад

Just started watching a few videos. Just commenting on protection papers. I laminate pressed flower bookmarks in laminating pouches using an iron now. My roll type laminator broke and looking into replacing with a T-shirt press as more versatile. But I’m surprised no one has mentioned to use parchment baking paper as a protectant. I iron on it! Thanks for all the techniques in videos. It will help my other crafting

@rhondahatton1483 4 года назад

I tried it and on my first attempt it came out great! The only minor problem I had was the indent from the tape came through because of the heat press, but you can only see it when you move the picture around. So be careful when applying the tape. Thanks for a great video!!!

@SouthpawsStudio 4 года назад

There are also matte laminating pouches.

@delilahwilson53 4 года назад

I tried this and they turned out great. The only thing I did different was to cut off the corners of the laminate at an angle then wrap the excess to the back and taped in place. That gave me a smooth finished edge and I did not have to cut off the excess. You have to be careful when you wrap and tape on the back that you don't cause any wrinkles on the front.

@SouthpawsStudio 4 года назад

Yes, I noticed this a bit after shooting the video. It's definitely a better way to do it.

@anabellgilliland4921 3 года назад

Great video and step by step instructions. Thank you! One question: I noticed that when you were first placing the laminate on the canvas, you paused and then turned the laminate over. Which side of the laminate did you choose to be touching the canvas vs facing up to be sublimated later? By the way you switched your original placement, I'm guessing there is a difference in the sides.

@SouthpawsStudio 3 года назад

I usually try to do glossy side out

It won't stick. Cotton fibers will not adhere to the laminate. However, I did just watch a video that shows them sublimating the JetPro Opaque sheets with some success.

Thank you for the great tutorials! I'm new to sublimation, and you've really helped me a lot. I have a question, though, and I'm hoping you'll have an answer. I tried this on a few small pictures and they came out wonderful. Then I tried it with a 5x7 picture of my mom and dad, and the black in the picture (they were wearing wet suits) came out - well, "burnt looking" is the best I can explain it. There's almost a brown film over the black. I don't know if it's something with my color settings for the print, or something with my heat press settings. Any suggestions?

@SouthpawsStudio 4 года назад

Too much heat? I usually do them at 375 instead of the usual 400.

@annemkat 4 года назад

@@SouthpawsStudio I'm going to try that tonight. I also followed your tutorial to adjust my color settings, so maybe the combination of the two will do it. Thanks again! Also, I made an AMAZING floor mat, following your directions. I even got really creative and made the design three sheets, so it filled the entire center of the mat. My friend was so tickled with it. Thanks for making me look like a pro!!!

hello Southpaw STUDIO. this is one of the best subscriptions I Joined. Your presentations are great. I like the laminate idea. Here is my question. I have been wanting to subloimate on a dollar tree pint glass for beer. Can I put a layer of laminate on the glass, shrinkwrap the laminate and then sublimate on the glass? That would be great. What temp should I do the laminate? for how long.

@martingaydarov 4 года назад

I'm not an expert but wouldn't it be much cheaper, cleaner and less time consuming if you just apply a coat of off-the-shelf 2-component polyester resin on top of whatever flat, cleaned surface you want? Should work on raw aluminum, wood and everything else that would withstand the heat of the dye-sublimation transfer. Besides, you wouldn't need to cure twice and potentially warp it the material. Furthermore, the bond of the resin would be far greater than the heat activated glue.

@SouthpawsStudio 4 года назад

To my knowledge, poly resin is only stable to 60*C, not nearly hot enough for the sublimation process to begin.

@Unicorns_faith20 4 года назад

What is the purpose of the additional sheets of copy paper?

@SouthpawsStudio 4 года назад

Just to protect the heat press, to be honest.

@stephaniechristy8819 2 года назад

I'm a little confused. When you heat the laminate onto the canvas board is that temp the same as the 350 for 120 seconds? Or how long to melt it on. Also later in the comments you mentioned a different time? You make it look easy.

Hi. I keep trying this on a flat canvas board but mine comes out “wrinkled”. Any tips to avoid the film wrinkling when it’s pressed? Thank you!

@SouthpawsStudio 4 года назад

On canvas, it will slightly take the form of the canvas, so small wrinkles are just part of it.
