After some research I found that the blanks have to be CAST acrylic in order to be sublimated on. Most of these sold at craft stores are cast acrylic. I assume that the blanks used in this video is cast acrylic hence why it worked so well. If your blanks didn't turn out right after a press you may actually be using extruded acrylic, a less expensive and low quality blank.

Oh… I had the same issue!!! And it kinda cupped weirdly too!

The sub paper leaves a slight cloudy texture. I made a mistake of putting a smaller design on without the blank sub paper totally covering the keychain so I had clear spots. Need to make sure the sub paper completely covers the keychain.

[@terry68jenner]

I wonder how they would come out if you sublimated both sides at the same time. 1 side the design the other side a plain colour red yellow green ect. I guess it depends how far the ink would travel into the disc and what colours are used in the design. Just a thought

[@TheKelliebeanz]

The colours becomes transparent depending on how dark the background

[@SherylLynn333]

[@cprosser9988]

I just wanted to add my experience with this project. My discs are very cloudy after removing all of the paper. I believe this is residue left on from my Asub paper. But I’ve found that if I apply a coat of uv resin it completely removes the cloudiness.

[@DesignBundles]

Thanks for sharing!

[@lallybean]

I sublimated on my regular acrylic disk and no matter how long I soaked them in water, the paper never came out, I had to scrape them and the colors were not as vibrant. 😉

[@YouCanTotallyMakeThat]

Since they are clear to the paint on the back is what helps them pop

[@OneCraftyRabbit]

Great video. Please help! I've done this and my sublimation paper comes off just fine but the residue wont come off no matter how much I scrub it. I've soaked them used dawn dish soap and goo gone and it's still there like sticker residue. The image is clear on it, almost perfect. Does anyone have any other suggestions?

[@OneCraftyRabbit]

For those who want to know, the residue was terrible frosting from what I believe is the wrong kind of acrylic. It was the cheap one's from Amazon. I had thicker (regular not specifically for sublimation) blanks from another supplier and they took the sublimation beautifully!

[@katrinalatham1795]

@@OneCraftyRabbit may i ask where you got them from?

[@OneCraftyRabbit]

@@katrinalatham1795 of course, I tried a different shops on Etsy for sublimation keychains and it made a big difference. Another important factor is watching the temperature. On my cricut easy press I had to go higher. On my shirt press I went lower and that helped with any residue. Hope this helps!

I've done a dozen sublimations onto acrylic disks using Cricut Infusible Ink sheets. For some reason the backing on the ink sheets leaves a smeary image on the acrylic.

She is a good teacher. I'm just wondering if the only way to get a good result is to use a dye sublimation paper instead of the Infusible Ink sheets?
