Some comments/tips: 1. use a laminating machine if you have, on the press it will often bubble 2. use the thinnest laminating film you can get, 50mic, maybe less 3. laminating only one side (front) of the vinyl 4. the white vinyl is only needed to get the sticky back, you can use other colors too, but of course without white background 5. the sublimation does only work good on the laminating film (polyester), not the vinyl itself 6. sublimation is only good for indoor use, outdoor it will fade really quick from sunlight 7. uv protection coating can help with (6) a little, but if you want long lasting decals, just use colored vinyl with your cutter alone 8. you can do transparent decals from transparent vinyl without laminating film, the sublimation will be inside the glue of the vinyl 9. if you sublimate the white vinyl directly, the image will be in the glue too. you can use this for windows from the back (inside)

Just to clarify, you're applying laminate to vinyl, then applying the sublimation to the laminate?

Yall are so much fun! I Love watching yalls shenanigan.

If you laminate both sides of the 651, how do you peel the back of the sticker? Or do you just laminate the one side (shiny side)?

I do not understand why you laminate first instead of after.

What temperature for the one minute?

Thank you for this. I subscribed and liked because you two deserved it. He’s the BUT…… A huge and critical part of doing this is the decorative glaze. I understand your two chose not to use it, that’s fine but an example on another piece of scrap wood would have completed this DIY/review tutorial video. As I start to apply the decorative glaze now, I am certain that this step is the most difficult and important to the whole look. Keep it up you too! Great teamwork. It’s clear you two love each other.

Alrighty - I got kinda lost and would appreciate your feedback. Am I placing my printed sublimated image in the pouch and pressing at 400 degrees for 1 minute? Or am I placing the 651 in the thermal pouch and pressing? Or is it both? I got everything else from there, it's just that bit that's a tad confusing.

Thanks

Nice tutorial hun thanks that’s exactly what i was looking for.

How does the backing come off to peel to stick , I absolutely love the video !

What temperature did you press these at?

I found this video very confusing, if you showed what you were doing and explain it like you are teaching someone that's never done it it would be more helpful

Where did you get that photo to work with? Thank you.

The kits have Krud Kutter in them now.

It's stating the file was deleted.

Thank you so much. This was super helpful!!!

But where is the sticky side as it’s back to front ?

I used white oracle 651 and the white disappeared when I pulled the back off 🤦🏼‍♀️ is this normal??

Thanks for the video. Newby maybe silly question... am I sublimating the thermal lamination side or the vinyl sticker side? I believe the thermal lamination ends up on the away side (of outside window) of the whole decal, then the vinyl sticker and then sticky back side of vinyl sticks on outside of car window. I am just not understanding which side the sublimation is penetrating - the thermal lamination or vinyl sticker. Thanks

I followed this method twice and both times it did not work.

Thanks for sharing. I liked your video but i feel like you left out a lot. i would like to have seen ALL the steps. i would rather have seen the work instead of you telling about the work...imagine camera facing down on the project. never the less, it is a good video. and i really do appreciate you making it.

Not understanding 😞

Have you tried to clean your heat press with the Dritz hot iron cleaner?

I follow the steps but the image is coming out on the sticky side. Any tips

Thanks for the video! What sublimation printer are you using or would you recommend? I’m interested in making car decals and cups. Thanks

Thank you. This is exactly what I’ve been looking for

I’m struggling to know which side of thermal paper to use?

You forgot to mention me, the scheduler. Glad y’all are enjoying the pool.

So happy for ya'll!

@3:51 Paul, no. Just.... No.

How do they hold up to the sun and rain that your car endures? Thank you for making this video 😊

What is the program your using?

How long does the stickers last on a car?

Maybe I'm just up to early watching videos but I have a question. If you laminate the 651, how can it stick to the car? Did you only put it on the top of the 651 or did you put it in the pocket.

Did you use clear or white 651

How does the sublimation on the vinyl hold up to weather and uv light on vehicle windows?

Can Siser permanent vinyl be used with the same results?

Thank you for your videos and advice.Im going to look into the website.Ive been using Glitter vinyl to sublimate....ugh today i bought sparkle vinyl ugh mess!!we live n learn.

Great job

What vinyl use on Amazon i hace glossy or Matte ??

Thank you for this tutorial but I’m wondering is any issues with the Sun for this sublimation decal????

Does the sublimation fade if it’s on the clear htv

Are they weather proof ?

Why can't we use print and cut feature of cricut? If you print including registration marks, then press vinyl, laminate and sublimation paper for 60 seconds, then cut with Cricut, would not that be easier? Is there a reason you press laminate and sub paper separately?

Will the adhesive vinyl still stick after that heat is applied

Great Tutorial. Thanks so much for breaking it down. Now I got to go make one I’ve been promising to my daughter LOL
