[@HeyLetsMakeStuff]

Oh yay, glad you're joining us for camp!

[@bobslfcu773]

I just tried Angies sublimation pen project and used your shrink wrap tip, it really saved my hands. The pens came out ok for the first time.

[@HeyLetsMakeStuff]

Awesome!

[@HeatTransferWarehouse]

We love your videos, Cori - thank you so much for the great information!

[@HeyLetsMakeStuff]

Thanks for watching!! We all love you right back!

[@reneepaiz9574]

Thank u for Alll your tips!!!

[@HeyLetsMakeStuff]

You're so welcome!

[@bobslfcu773]

Awesome shrink wrap tip, I have been using masking tape on mugs. It works well for me but is hard on the hands.

[@HeyLetsMakeStuff]

Definitely hard on the hands! I deal with tendinitis and fibromyalgia so the rolling on the desk trick has been the best option for me since it requires the fewest fine motor skills in my fingers.

[@samperi2468]

thx for the tips

[@HeyLetsMakeStuff]

You're welcome!

[@maureenbaker475]

Great Info Cori, thanks so much. I have tried two different spray adhesives and with my EcoTank I find the spray places dots on the sublimation paper even after making sure the sublimation ink is dry. I have tried holding it back farther but have not had much luck. Any other ideas?

[@HeyLetsMakeStuff]

Hmm, that's frustrating! I wonder if the ink is still not dried as well as it could be-maybe try waiting 24 hours?

[@sheliastewart3812]

What was the mat you put in your convection oven for tumblers?

[@HeyLetsMakeStuff]

It's a Nomex pad: amzn.to/3kcLMLz :)

[@carollewis1644]

Hi Cori: Where did you get the pad for the inside of your sublimation oven?

[@carollewis1644]

Disregard. I found the answer below. Thank you for all your tips!

[@HeyLetsMakeStuff]

Glad you found it!

[@melodybabayy]

Good tips specially the adhesive spray. By any chance do you know what are the other brands that I can purchase at the local craft stores? I clicked the link the one you're using the shipping cost almost the same as the product 😩 Also can you use that on tumblers and cups? Or just on fabrics?

[@HeyLetsMakeStuff]

I'm not sure about the local craft stores! I know Heat Transfer Warehouse has a spray that's much cheaper but I haven't tried it myself yet. And yes, I've used it on hard blanks before. Really depends on the quality of the coating. Most of my uses have turned out well but it's not good on metal and a few other types of blanks.

[@melodybabayy]

@@HeyLetsMakeStuff oh ok, because sometimes like on tumblers it shows the heat tape marks. Its a hit and miss with me with those tape marks and i don't know what's the cause . For sure it ruins my tumbler sublimation projects, so fraustrating 😩

[@HeyLetsMakeStuff]

That's really frustrating! Are you using a tumbler press or a convection oven?

[@melodybabayy]

@@HeyLetsMakeStuff i'm using the PYD Life tumbler press. Sometimes I get it on my mugs with the Cricut Mugpress. I also get it sometimes with tshirts too I use HTV Ront Auto-press. It happens on Sublimation and one time with Infusible ink but that one you can barely see it

[@HeyLetsMakeStuff]

@@melodybabayy I might try another brand of tape. And where you can, lessen the pressure a bit.

[@Linda-jb5px]

Cori, does the Dye Trans Pro Spray work for sublimating on ceramic ornaments?

[@HeyLetsMakeStuff]

Yes! I have specifically used it for that.
