Sublimation Cotton Spray on a BELLA+CANVAS 100% Cotton Shirt

[@tinaupnorth]

Thank you so much Angie! As always, I love that you show your wash tests! I appreciate that EDUCATE and not simply INFLUENCE. Huge difference. I've said it before and I'll say it again. You are the only person I trust when it comes to sublimation!

[@AngieHolden]

Yay! Thank you!

[@QueenBDesigns]

Because I have found it easier to buy cotton shirts vs poly your video has been a blessing! I love your channel. I appreciate that you take time to explain it all in a language those of us that haven't been doing sublimation long can understand.

[@ritzienelle4802]

how is ir when you try it?

[@QueenBDesigns]

@@ritzienelle4802 I actually haven’t ordered it yet. Been really busy with Valentine’s Day.

Can't stop crafting!

Thxs Angie, interesting, have a blessed 2023

[@elizabethmontes382]

Yes I try a few sublimation products for 💯 cotton ..Yes they don't last long...after a few wash... Thanks for the video...

[@AngieHolden]

Thanks for watching!

[@starbrown1219]

Very interesting. However, I think that if you had a business selling them , it would take too much time to prepare the shirts quickly. Thanks for taking the time to check this out.

[@lisabutler5246]

Thanks so much for your videos. I love your true honest reviews. I bought GoFuze but I don't understand if I should make sure the shirt is basically dry before heat pressing the 1st 10 seconds? Or if the shirt can still be moist? What if it's too moist and the shirt didn't dry after the 10 second press? Should I wait for it to be dry before I sublimate the design for 70 seconds?

[@AngieHolden]

I didn't have any issues with it being wet after that first press. You can try both ways. I think it would be better if it was as dry as possible.

[@cherishthemessypainter]

This video is beyond helpful! I too love love love Bella t shirts and want to thank you for the link to the wholesale site. We are planning a Disney trip for 8 people and I need to make a whole bunch of shirts! Thank you Angie you're videos are always awesome! Do you have any advice for someone who is camera shy with a KZbin channel? 😉

[@AngieHolden]

Just jump in and do it. It is SO HARD at first but you eventually get over seeing yourself on camera!

[@HeatTransferWarehouse]

Nice video Angie! Great solution for sublimating on cotton!

[@eiugrad77]

Thanks for all of your videos! You're my "go-to" person for anything sublimated. Quick question--do you rinse the roller in water after you use it or do you toss it and use a new one?

[@AngieHolden]

I rinse and reuse.

[@atsu8344]

Thank you so much you’re amazing

[@suzanneniemeier9899]

I love Bella Canvas shirts as well

[@lindamack4352]

You are an awesome teacher!

[@AngieHolden]

Thanks!

[@beaveratthedam2340]

Great video - Very informative. Thank you!!!

[@anthonyestatico217]

Hi Angie I accidently treated my 100 % cotton shirt with Subli - T instead of Poly T. Can I re-treat over that with the Poly -T or do I have to start all over? Thanks ! Best to you .

[@AngieHolden]

Gosh I am not sure!

[@elliemcgettigan4366]

Thank you for doing this for all of us who were wondering which product would be best! Can you tell me if the roller is a fluffly one or a foam one? Thank you again!!

[@AngieHolden]

I would say more fluffy!

[@LovesHerEagles]

Can you use a brayer?

[@kathieokeefe9228]

Angie, did you try this method on a 50/50 (cotton to poly) shirt and did the colors remain more vibrant because the poly content is boosted with the spray?

[@AngieHolden]

I have not tried that!

[@pattishelton3169]

I just wish it would last longer. Maybe you could keep up with the washes and then do an update video later. Thanks

[@laurahorrisberger1695]

Great video I love all your video's they are all great!! Can I ask what kind of ink did you use in your sawgrass printer for this project? Im so confused on what ink system to purchase easysubli or sublijet

[@AngieHolden]

Try this: kzbin.info/www/bejne/ip7Tpn53dsyZgsU

[@sherryfritzshall816]

So it would work best if you used a very vibrant design? Or even black?

[@AngieHolden]

It would still fade some from what I have seen.

[@carolynneff4980]

Great video as always. I wonder if a large plastic cutting board would work for the application?

[@AngieHolden]

I would say so! It is similar!

[@piglet4110]

Thank you! This is excellent info!

[@AngieHolden]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@kelliedawn4745]

Hey Angie, love your KZbin page. I’ve learned so much on your channel. Ty I just got a iPad and trying to find a good app to download to draw to make svg’s. What do recommend?

[@AngieHolden]

Procreate is my top pick for iPad!

[@kelliedawn4745]

@@AngieHolden Ty so much. I’m trying to get started making my own svg’s to sell but some of these apps are crazy. Love your utube. I’ve learned alot through you.

[@angiemanges7945]

Have you tried the rolled "stuff" (sorry for lack of a better term lol) instead of the spray on liquid?

[@AngieHolden]

Several versions! Try this: kzbin.info/www/bejne/nYKmi4WkmaeHf5o

[@susanward235]

Hi Angie, thank you for your informational videos. I am very new to sublimation and have a very silly question. If my design does not take up a whole blank what happens when you press the shirt? Do you cut the extra paper off? Do you print and cut on the Cricut. I’ve goggled this question with no long at any answers. Any information would be appreciated. Thank you

[@AngieHolden]

No need to cut off extra paper. White areas do not transfer.

[@johnkunze5362]

Can we see some of these after 5, 10, 20 washes? Also, if you emulsify styrofoam in acetone or xylene and soak the cotton....it should work well..cheap.

[@avaonalee]

I'd love to know how they held up in the wash for you, have you continued washing them? I want to try a sublimation spray on a 60/40 cotton poly shirt. Is there any of the less expensive brands you would recommend for making a cotton poly blend more vibrant?

[@AngieHolden]

I haven’t found anything else I really like. I washed this several times but I have not done a bunch.

[@avaonalee]

@@AngieHoldenthanks so much! Well if you do end up washing it more, I would really appreciate an update on how it does - I'd be willing to spend the $60 if I knew it would hold up

[@nicolebartscher3203]

Hi Angie. Would this product work well on the sweatshirts and t-shirts from hobby lobby that are 50/50? Thank you

[@AngieHolden]

Yes it would!

[@nicolebartscher3203]

@@AngieHolden thank you!

[@avaonalee]

Any more washes? Would be curious to know how this holds up after 20/25 washes

[@AngieHolden]

It has been okay. I would say still fading to a vintage look.

[@julieann5196]

Angie, can you use this product with Cricut infusible ink/markers and do you need to use a heat press or is a Cricut Easy Press o.k. to use?

[@AngieHolden]

Yes you could use Infusible Ink. With the EasyPress, you would need to press down to get a lot of pressure.

[@julieann5196]

Thanks for the reply Angie.

[@joeylynsantiago8579]

will this work too on other light colored shirts like light blue, gray, neon green etc?

[@AngieHolden]

Any color of the shirt will show through the sublimation.

[@LisaVornhagen]

Question - Is seriously misspelled on purpose? That was really bugging me.

[@stn612]

I had to look at it again and again. Then I looked it up, I thought I had forgot how to spell.

[@sharonhobson5297]

It’s the automatic KZbin captions…they get things wrong sometimes.

[@LisaVornhagen]

@@sharonhobson5297 It wasn't in the captions. It is on the sub design.

[@sharijd726]

Ha ha, I noticed that too!

[@monicak2985]

I hadn’t noticed! But who cares. We get the idea. Another great video. Thanks Angie! Love your videos!!

[@jillannguidi]

Would you be able to put the completed shirt in the dryer on low to soften the shirt vs washing and hang drying before selling?

[@AngieHolden]

They do not recommend drying with this product so I didn't try that!

[@karinascrafts008]

I wonder if this spray will work on infusible ink transfer sheet too

[@AngieHolden]

Yep it would!

[@lynnepalumbo4218]

What would you recommend more, this or the dtf powder hack one

[@AngieHolden]

I haven't tried the DTF powder hack yet! Maybe next?

[@kaylasharp2545]

Can you use the polyester blank when pressing on any white shirt to avoid the burn look

[@AngieHolden]

It is worth a shot!

[@mandyneedham6641]

Serioursly?

I totally didn't notice until after this video was up and live! Oh well! Luckily that wasn't the point of the video! HA HA HA!

Hey Angie. Did you make a .svg for this file you used? If not, can you share what fonts you used so i can make one? The image i am referring to is - "seriously i can make that". Thank you 😊

I don't think I did in this case! Sorry!
