Sublimation on 100% Cotton using FOREVER Subli-Light NO CUT | Overview & Demo | MUST WATCH

[@giftedhandsbyjaviah]

Hey Everyone, please note that Pro World Inc’s website states “recommended for sawgrass printers.” It’s a recommendation because the ICC color profiles for this media is integrated in the Sawgrass Print Manager and Sawgrass Exchange Print Mate. It’s just a recommendation and not a requirement. Epson printers can certainly be used as long as your print settings allow for LOTS of ink saturation as mentioned in the video. This media has been around for over 5 years and many epson users has had lots of success with this media! FOREVER, the actual manufacturer advise that any dye sublimation printer and inks can be use with their sublimation transfer papers as long as your print settings are accurate! Trust me 💗

[@mehalla451]

I subbed and have just got started on my journey of sublimation. Thank you so much for your wealth of information. I was in fear of what the heck to do but this video helped me with my fears and I'm going to order this paper. I bought a bulk order of shirts and hoodies and realized they were a 50/50 blend. I was afraid I would have to send them back. But now I know thats not the case. Thank you again! 💞💞

[@tracifolkins]

Thank you soooo much for this tutorial and information! I use an ET printer and when I reached out to FOREVER regarding use with an ET, they could unfortunately not give me their honest opinion on this. I am thankful that I stumbled onto you!!! ❤❤

I brought some of this paper a while ago. Maybe 2 years ago. And I couldn’t find anyone that used this paper but the seller. Now I’m definitely going to have to give this a try. I can’t believe what I have been missing . Thank you so much for this very detailed video. Love it.

[@giftedhandsbyjaviah]

Thank you so much for watching 🥰 This is a 10/10 hands down!

[@brittneymoon6999]

Thanks so much for the info! Love the tutorial! We bought the paper, but we are having an issue where sometimes the ink pulls up back onto the paper and doesn’t go all the way down on the garment and certain areas. Do you have any insights on whether that’s a heat issue or too long or too little time? Thanks so much!

[@giftedhandsbyjaviah]

You’re welcome! I had that same issue as well! For me it was the pressure. I needed to use firm pressure. It can be a number of contributing factors. I’d suggest testing your temp, pressure and also consider your artwork as well. My happy medium was 375 with very firm pressure. Also, before I removed the paper, I rubbed for about 2 secs and then I peeled away

[@rookdebpoye6166]

Great tutorial I can’t believe I’ve never heard of this. I will certainly be buying it now. Thank you so much for your awesome video I just subscribed.❤

[@giftedhandsbyjaviah]

Thank you!!! 🙏🏾 I know right? It’s been around for years but I think dye sublimation became even more prevalent in 2020. I believe that’s when it became popular in the sense of people being g more aware of the process.

[@giftedhandsbyjaviah]

Thanks for watching 🥰

Do you think you could do this using a cricut heat press? If so, at what time and temp?

[@RunningToday77]

Did you use sublimation ink in the Epson printer?

[@BlasianFnAMAZN]

Dope 🔥🔥 I was sold til I went to the website & it said it’s only recommended for the sawgrass sublimation printer .. I’m hurt 😩

[@giftedhandsbyjaviah]

Hey Nae Nae, this media has been around for years! I’m pretty confident that Pro World hasn’t had a chance to update their description because Sawgrass Virtuoso is an older version of their line of printers. Sawgrass released new printers since then SG 400, 800, 500, & 1000 with a new design program and new features. The website states the sawgrass being a recommendation because the sawgrass printers has the media ICC color profiles integrated in their software. It’s only a recommendation and not a requirement 💗The requirement is having a sublimation printer and inks despite the brand. Trust me🙏🏾

Hello. I am having trouble with this process. The transfer is not staying on my shirt. When I remove after 2 seconds, some of it stays on the transfer paper leaving my design looking terrible. Also sometimes it stretches a when I am removing the transfer and it sticks to itself. Do you have any tips? What time and temp have you found to work best? I am using 356 degrees for 30 seconds. Thank you.

[@giftedhandsbyjaviah]

Hi Kim! Im sorry to hear that. I cover my times and temp in the video. Check the 19:30 stamp mark 😊 370 works for me but you’ll definitely need to test these out for sure!

I have a dtf machine that is taking me through with the maintenance. I have an epson 2800 and omw to get the 15000... can i use this paper for that. Im always printing full color shirts and would like the same type of quality from my dtf transfers. What would you suggest and what are the settings

[@giftedhandsbyjaviah]

Heyy! If I’m honest, this particular media only works with light colored garments whereas dtf transfers are great for all colored garments and textiles. So, it’s really a personal preference

[@halimabronson8817]

Can I use my all in one epson printer with sublimation ink

[@giftedhandsbyjaviah]

Hi Halima! Yes, any sublimation printer will work

[@leandraharris8339]

What happens if u dont press right away and what if u lay it and its not centered. Can u pick it back up and move it left or right?😊

[@giftedhandsbyjaviah]

Great question! I actually printed an image and let it sit for48 hours. I pressed it on a tote bag with no issues. I have to wash it to see if that changes the washability but no issues at all. I'm not sure about the realigning part. Sorry.

[@jeangrandy8672]

Does it feel like vinyl? How did it wash?

[@MsCree01]

Want to make sure I’m seeing this right. So the extra material that’s not a part of the design just evaporates or vanishes?

[@giftedhandsbyjaviah]

Hi! That’s a great question! Correct, the excess glitter media will not transfer onto the garment because there’s no ink on it to absorb or bond to anything. With dye sublimation, there’s no white/ink so if there’s no ink on the solid white excess media, nothing with transfer. You can certainly trim off the excess to use for a different project but I wanted to show how this media work in its entirety :) Did I answer your question?

[@jeangrandy8672]

How do you get rid of the press marks on the shirt?

Hi! Is it work for epson ecotank sublimation printer? Thanks

[@giftedhandsbyjaviah]

Hey! Yes, it does work with epson printers! Any dye sublimation printer with sublimation ink will work as soon as your print settings allow for massive ink saturation. In the tutorial, i go over the print settings for epson printers.

[@shonnie_d]

Great video!

[@brialo6016]

Can you use the Subli Light NoCut on the Ecotank f170 sure color sublimation printer

[@giftedhandsbyjaviah]

Hey! Yes, absolutely! Any dye sublimation printer can be used per FOREVER 😊

[@kimellison791]

How does the feel and overall process compare to DTF transfer paper with the DTF powder?

[@giftedhandsbyjaviah]

That's a great question! In terms of feel, both are very soft. But, I will say that the Subli-Light No Cut feels like traditional screen printed shirts but softer....almost like it's embedded in the fabric. That's how soft and thin it is in my opinion. Both methods are GREAT! So, I'll say it’s a personal preference :) I hope this helps!

I received my order and tried it, i did everything your video says to do plus the instructions that was emailed to me. Thie issue is that when i peal the paper from the garment its taking some of the color off the designs i dont no if i am still doing something wrong. Other than that the feel is just soft and really, really nice dont know if i will be ordering anymore just for the one reason.

[@giftedhandsbyjaviah]

Ahhhh no, I’m so sorry to hear this! I’ll say don’t give up just yet, rent er I said in the video trial and error. Recommendation: Firm pressure, rub with a heat resistant glove, and peel away keeping the garment on the bottom platen.

[@karren07161]

So this is ONLY use with sawgrass sublimation printer? I do not have a sawgrass sublimation printer. Please help before I buy.

[@giftedhandsbyjaviah]

Hey Karren! Thanks for watching! No, it’s not only to be used with sawgrass printers! The sawgrass printers are a recommendation to be used simply because the ICC color profiles for FOREVER brand of sublimations are integrated in the Sawgrass software. Therefore, we’ll be using the FOREVER color profile without needing to adjust the print settings. Any sublimation printer can used per the manufacture themselves 💗 I promise you, you can! Also provided the print settings with the epson printers in the video

Oh no 😢 I’m so sorry to hear that. Heather is too dark. With this media, we have to use light colored garments. Honestly, it’s trial and error. I messed up the first time I tried it. I had to increase my temp and pressure. After that, it was a smooth sail :)

[@nahnisjourney1406]

How do you press it and have a Matte finish? Thank you.

[@giftedhandsbyjaviah]

FOREVER calls that step the fixing stage and that’s when you press your garment for an extra 30 secs. I believe the finish is dependent on the finishing papers. I used parchment paper that I had at home and my results were a semi gloss finish at first. The lighting in my room made it seem extremely glossy and plastic looking but I promise it wasn’t. After a few hours, I noticed that the design looked even more matte. I’m going to do a wash test as well! I hope that helps ❤

[@christineconley7903]

I'm wondering if using butcher paper instead of parchment would make it more matte

[@danyelle87]

So how do you get it matte?

[@giftedhandsbyjaviah]

It’s not going to be 100% matte per the company’s description of the product but essentially, the fixing stage (applying parchment paper) will give you a more matte finish. Again, it’s not going to be matte matte. I hope this helps

[@ninawagner9570]

Does the subli light feel like vinyl

[@giftedhandsbyjaviah]

Not at all! It feels like it’s naturally embedded in the fabric. A very thin texture. No plastic feel at all

[@shyashcypert5783]
