Appreciate all the effort you put into this for us all. I’ve just tried using sublimation ink pens and a spray to experiment on a cotton handkerchief BEFORE I try it on a t-shirt. Didn’t work fantastic, and after watching this I might just have to go with poly t shirts instead. Plus the pens I was using were a random brand from Amazon, so the colours weren’t that bright to start with (red and yellow). Might try some different transfer mediums though. Used paper first, then card stock because the paper seems to absorb more of the ink. The joys of experimenting.

Can you tell me why my shirt runs/smears. I do the process and after it is done it looks great and then after it is worn the shirt run/smears I love the way this looks and the fact you can use it on 100% cotton and it turns out vibrant. I have tried the process 4 times and every time it does the same thing.

@JenniferMaker 8 месяцев назад

There are a lot of factors at play, is the sublimation ink not adhering to the shirt or your HTV?

I ordered a leotard for my granddaughter that was supposed to be mostly polyester, but it is actually rayon. Can I use the clear sublimation htv and sub on 82%rayon/spandex?

@JenniferMaker Hey Jennifer, I have watched your video and I cant thank you enough for the work you put into these to help anyone wanting to get into Sublimation but I have had an issue whenever trying to apply my design to a shirt, the color for grays have seemed to come out more brown tone than gray and I have not figured out why either. Would you have any tips on how to help with this? Im using a Georges White T shirt, An Epson F100 series sublimation printer and the recommended paper that you have suggested in a good amount of your videos. Im just trying to figure this out and having little to no luck. I cant adjust my printing setting as they are limited for some reason and Ive tried upping the saturation with no avail.
