Beautifully done

You are most welcome. Don’t allow it to intimidate you. Just take your time, go slowly and also step by step and with the correct pressure and temperature you will have beautiful sublimation plates.

You are most welcome. The channel has a lot of videos that will guide and help you step by step and I have playlist with sublimation videos that can also help you.

You are most welcome.

Thanks very much for your comment and all the best.

You are welcome 💪💪💪💪

Thanks very much for your comment and support. Yes, they could be larger once the plate press heating element is larger. So if you do have the plate press set up, take a look at the different sizes.

Thanks very much 💪

Thanks for your question. It all depends on how big your plate press is. When sublimating over previous images you have to be careful as you can actually burn the image that was pressed on first. So you have to decide how big you would like the image to be and then sublimate it. However, to your question, If you do one half at 240 seconds, once the entire paper was down I would only do 200 seconds for the next half. The reason I noted this is because the platter and paper would have already been hot and passed off heat. I hope this helps and that you do understand. Let me know if you do.

Thanks for your support. The only idea I can think about is to use a 3D Sublimation Vacuum Heat Press Machine.

You are welcome.

Thanks for your question and sorry for the delay in response. If you do print on a big piece of paper and have some leftover, you can use it to print images for mugs, key rings etc. I hope this helps.

You are welcome.

Hi, can you clarify exactly which area so i can assist? Maybe you can put the time here so i can see what you are seeing.

What kind of A sub paper are you using .The A sub I'm using is sticking to the plate.

@@LJ-in6qd I am also using A-SUB paper 125 G. What I would do at times is allow it to cool for 1-2 mins and if you get residue then use a cloth to clean it off.

Are you spraying the plate's or are they sublimation plates. Trying to figure out setting on the Vevor Heat Press Machine.

@@LJ-in6qd this is a standard plate from a store that cost $3 and I turned it into a sublimation plate by using polygloss.

Thanks for your question. Before I answer I will say there are sublimation-ready plates which are already coated and prepared for sublimation and then there is the process where we can apply polygloss and sublimate your work onto a plate. In this video I used a normal plate and applied ploygloss, which gave me the opportunity to sublimate onto it. The company noted that Polygloss is food safe so yes you can eat off this plate. However, I normally advise to use it as an ornament. If you expose the plate with the Polygloss to execessive heat for example your oven or even microwave, it can reactivate the polygloss. So if you are planning to eat from it make sure to keep it away from the oven and extreme heats. I know the answer was long but I hope it helped.

Thanks for your comment. I actually placed all the links in the description of this video with all the different items. What I used was A-Sub paper. Here is the link - amzn.to/3yTTtMJ Hope this helps 💪

Thanks for your question. You can actually purchase an all-in-one heat press that carries the different heating elements to press hats, plates mugs, and t-shirts. Please see the link to a high-quality Press 👉shrsl.com/41pxo

@@atprints Thank you. The video was very helpful.

@@bigred6815 you are most welcome

Can you eat off this plate or no?

Thanks for your question and sorry for the late response. I never sublimated a plate in an oven before but I can say I know it can work. I would recommend your temperature between 350 - 400 F for around 5 minutes. It would be good to get something heavy or big enough to put on top of the image so they could be some pressure.

Thanks for your question. These printers are really hard to find. I found one on Amazon here is the link - amzn.to/3JTFLjF

Thanks for your question. If your plate element is 6 inches you can make your design around 5 - 5.5 inches.

Thanks for your question. A sublimated coated plate is a special type of plate that allows you to sublimate images and designs onto it. A sublimation plate is a special type of plate. If you try to use a normal ceramic plate it will not work. There are two choices you can look at when looking into sublimation products or plates. You can either purchase sublimation blanks from amazon and other stores or you can purchase polygloss and coat your own ceramic items. Take a look at this video where I coated a normal ceramic plate and a mug - ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-U-ymHszNgx0.html

I do believe you can use an oven. However, you would need to get something to keep the image pressed down to the plate then try to use the shrink wrap sleeves if you can find some that are big as plates. In relation to the circuit press, I’m sorry I can help in that area as my press is a bit different. I am not sure if circuit has anything that can work.

Hi, I use Printers Jack Sublimation ink. See the link here - amzn.to/3JxPq0i

Thanks very much for joining me on this journey, I really appreciate it. I use the HPN signature series 6 in 1 mug press. I can do a lot of different mug sizes and much more. The biggest heating element I have is for a 17oz so if I do a tumbler bigger than 17 oz the picture or image wouldn’t cover the entire tumbler. I really do hope this answers your question. You can actually watch me here unboxing the mug press - ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-pJcrhHZ1tJA.html

Thanks for your question. The heat press I used was a 6 in 1. If you are interested in one of those heat presses I can send you a link.

I believe there is but you will have to use a different type of press. There is a 3D Vacuum press, which I believe would work.

THanks for your comment. To date, I still have this plate and the quality is good.

Sublimation A Sub paper 125G

Safety is always first. However, Polygloss is non-toxic and FDA-compliant and this info comes directly from the company. So yes you can eat from this plate. However, I normally advise to use it as an ornament.

Thanks for your question. Once the plate has a nice smooth surface and is a light colors you can use it.

@@atprints Ty for such a fast response. So are you saying stoneware and porcelain are OK to use then. I seem to have a lot of bubbles left after 10 minutes.

Thanks for your question. When it comes to Polygloss there are so many views. The instructions never mentioned when i researched that it wasn't food safe. It mostly recommends you do not use PolyGloss coated substrates in a dishwasher since some dishwashers reach very high temperatures and this can re-activate the sublimation process causing the ink to bleed. In this case i always caution persons to wash by hand for safety. When it comes to plates i would advise to use the plate as an ornament rather than eat in it. I hope this helps.

Thanks for your question. When consulting with the company I was told the solution is safe. However, I always recommend using it as an ornament. I hope this answer helps.

Based on the information and from the company who product the Polygloss, the answer is yes. However, I still always recommend to person to use it as an ornament.

Thanks for your question. I used A-SUB paper 125 G 👉amzn.to/3muU43z

Sorry for the late response. In this video this plate was a normal ceramic plate where I applied polygloss onto that plate so i could sublimate onto it. However, if you are looking at buying sublimation plates that are already coated then you can get out Heat Press nation or Sublimation 101.

Hi, this was an amazon heat press. However, it is not available anymore. I can recommend this one that works way better amzn.to/3kdD4x0 I hope this helps.

@@atprints Thank you so much, have a great day

@@jessicagomero4807 you are welcome

I am not a 100% percent sure about the melamine.

Sorry for the late response. Can you explain what method you are using?

You need to use a program like Silhouette studio.

Thanks for your question. Yes, you can eat off the plate. With Dypress polygloss it's food safe, however, I still advised using it as an ornament.

This was an amazon heat press. You can check the description area of the video to find the link.

Yes between 375F-400F for 240 seconds

Thanks for your question. The print is permanent.
