Thank you, Michael!!! My son is 10 years old and wanted to print his own shirts and he is a wonderful streetware artist! I was missing a few things like the powder and appropriate temp. Thank you for helping make his dream come true!!!!

[@lyndsaycribbs2024]

If the printer doesn't like the pet film tape a blank piece of paper to the back with double sided tape. Works a treat

[@kclark3244]

Thank you!

[@ToniaWilliams-t5g]

I am also obsessed with this stuff. But just can’t seem to eat anything right. I get lucky occasionally and something will look good! Which is why I’m calling myself Accidentally Craftyy! 🤪

[@lovebirdslane5545]

Warm peel works best in our testing, some printers have sensors and will not print on overhead sheets because they cannot not detect a surface to print on. You can use a temp spray and place a piece of white paper behind the transparent sheet to get the printer to print. Embossing powder works with an inkjet printer, use whatever color embossing powder you would like. Make sure to apply the powder before the ink dries. Transparencies can attract powder particles and brushing may not remove all of the loose powder when using embossing powder. Tested at 320 degrees for 90 seconds also worked great. If using Sub ink, white embossing powder works, however the print will not be as clear nor as bright as using DTF powder. Happy Crafting!

[@kathyshorter8150]

That was amazing. I just watched a tutorial using DTF printer and film and the DTF printer was so expensive. I know you couldn't print on dark material but to be able to print on cotton alone is a big plus. Thank you for taking all the guessing out of this process for us. You save us so much time and money. You're the best!

[@mzinformation8602]

Yes!! My husband spent over $2800 buying me a "cheap" DTF printer 2 yrs ago and I haven't even done a test print to this day. Thisnis so much cheaper. I hope he can come upnwith a way to do dark shirts too

[@sinsofvorador]

Only problem with the dark color Clothing is the lack of the white over ink. If they made a white dtf power that stayed white it would work.

[@HVACRTECH-83]

@@sinsofvorador I believe you just need one of the eco tank printers that have the two black tanks and you put white dtf ink in one of the black spots. Havnt tried myself but seen a video on it and makes sense. I believe there's just a change you need to make in your software for the color profile. But then again,what's the toll your ecotank will pay to run those unsupported inks?

[@stadts1233]

It would be nice if you replied to questions that people have asked about this method, seems you do when they are praising you or you pick what ones you’d like to reply to. I see lots of unanswered questions here

[@Bkblaze]

I just did this and it worked. Had to jack my press up to 390 to melt the powder but using the parchment paper made it feel smooth. Ty

[@catsdivinelydesigns]

Got it to work. Taped a blank piece of paper to transfer paper and fed through printer....worked like a charm.

[@mrcraftypants]

that's great!

[@janmoran2106]

Hi Michael! You are my go to guy! I did an experiment using your materials but doing a cold peel as Crystal Ann suggests...the film separated leaving a cellophane layer on my tshirt. People don't do a cold peel do as Michael said "hot peel".

[@ellyh3868]

I am so here for this! I just tried sublimation spray on a cotton tshirt last night and the picture did not transfer well at all. It was super light where you could barely see it. I’m sure it was “user error”. I can’t wait to see how this works! ❤️

I am so excited for this tutorial. Just started making t-shirts and mugs. There are just so many cotton brand shirts out there. Also just used my crafty 10% off 143 vinyl and saved over $20 on my 2 different orders. Thanks for that🙏.

[@candybingham638]

Followed your instructions, exactly, and I'll add, I also have a Star Craft press so shouldn't have been any issue there. However, I ended with a brown rectangle around my image, which did not fully sublimate. Lol, back to the drawing board!

[@valeriepanzarella921]

OMG MICHAEL!! This is exciting stuff!! I here with you as you continue this journey of subbing in cotton! THANK YOU for working so hard on this! 😊

Yesss and please do with black cotton :)

If we could get the powder to melt white instead of clear, that would be a total game changer!

I love the idea of putting your DTF in a canister! Thanks for all you do. Always helpful.

[@normazaharioudakis4224]

What is that powder called please

[@davidnjessicacruz]

Michael, I’ve been thinking about how to use Crystal’s (Design Bundles) version of this hack but get a white background along with it without using DTV for colored cotton. How about using white sublimation paint? Make a stencil outline of the image you want on the cotton, put it on a piece of DTF film (same one you would stick in the printer) and paint on the white sublimation paint, put the powder on it, remove the stencil, place it on the shirt and heat press like you normally would and then warm peel it off. Now you have a white sublimated background on cotton. Then do Crystal’s regular sublimation DTF hack for getting the image on the shirt. I’m not sure if it would work since now you are layering the sublimation ink on top of the white sublimation ink instead of straight to the shirt but I thought it would be worth a try. I posted a similar comment on Crystal’s video but I’m not sure she’ll read it so I thought I’d bring it up to you.

[@joyscranfield5527]

Afternoon Michael! Saw your picture earlier (good picture)

[@dopeboyfilms168]

Had the same problem. You have to take a piece of regular printer paper and tape it to the BACK of the transfer paper. I had to move the regular printer paper down about 2 inches, and place a piece of tape on the end of the transfer paper and regular paper so the printer will feed the regular paper in first triggering the printer mechanism and then it feeds and prints. You can use ANY transfer paper.

[@ldyblu06]

This is very exciting!!!! Cant wait to see what more you come up with

[@lisae9498]

Mind Blown 🤯 I’ve recently discovered DTF and the machine is $$$ I’ve put off sublimation because of the limitations BUT with this I may need….no I need a sublimation printer! Thank you so much! I always learn and get so inspired by your videos! 🫶

[@ShannonT116]

Wow Michael this is awesome!! Can’t wait to try it!! Would love to do this on darker colors as well!! 😊🤗

[@janmoran2106]

Hello Michael! Have you tried this process on colored or black tshirts/fabric yet?

[@tanyajohnson3633]

Omg! This is a complete game changer. So here's my tricky question. Would this process also work on regular tumblers in a tumbler press that are not made for sublimation? Maybe do a cool peel rather than a warm peel? Also, I do a lot of shirts for larger people so is there a brand of film that you would recommend for 13x19? I very rarely use 8.5x11. Thank you so much, this video totally made my day!!!

[@kasekase28]

Omg I'm so excited to learn more about this!!!!

[@michellecollins70]

[@belyndamorris2236]

Wow this will definitely be a game changer! I'm in Florida and wow, rarely wear 100% polyester shirts, it's just too hot for that. Well, its ok in winter, but you know, we can get away with it for 3 or 4 months. Lol Im just getting started with sublimation (if i can get the used printer I bought to work).But, yes, this will be a huge difference if we can do this on cotton or a 50/50 or less blend!

[@tynishaharris535]

i was wondering if you put anything inside of the shirt to keep the design from bleeding onto the back? Or if that is even a necessary step?

[@jrl9319]

I have a question they make two different powders they make a white and a black wouldn't the white toner act like a backing like if you would done a white HTV. Or does it go completely clear and maybe they make a pigmented DTF powder it's just adhesive right

[@samuelshafer8612]

So I have been working with this process and my best results were with forever laser dark multi A paper pressing for about 20-25 sec and lower temp at 320 degrees. My new problem is I'm getting little colored spots from reusing the powder. if the powder soaks up the ink and falls back with leftover powder it will leave spots on the next print. took me several prints to figure out where the spots were coming from. I also did cold peel and the film came right off.
