Great video! You can measure the laminate to the size of the canvas - Save time!!

I can't tell you just how much this video helped me. A few years ago I was at a closeout store (Marc's) and found 5 ROLLS about 24" X 3" diameter of laminate material for $2.99 each. These have just been sitting on my shelf gathering dust & occasionally laminating important documents. WOW, the possibilities that you have opened for me are ASTOUNDING! Thank You So Much! I can't wait to try this process! My opportunities are almost endless & I probably have enough laminate for the rest of my life!

My roll type laminator broke and looking into replacing with a T-shirt press as more versatile. But I’m surprised no one has mentioned to use parchment baking paper as a protectant. I iron on it! Thanks for all the techniques in videos. It will help my other crafting

Thank you for the great tutorials! I'm new to sublimation, and you've really helped me a lot. I have a question, though, and I'm hoping you'll have an answer. I tried this on a few small pictures and they came out wonderful. Then I tried it with a 5x7 picture of my mom and dad, and the black in the picture (they were wearing wet suits) came out - well, "burnt looking" is the best I can explain it. There's almost a brown film over the black. I don't know if it's something with my color settings for the print, or something with my heat press settings. Any suggestions?

I haven't tried it with a cup. From my understanding, you can use either side.

Great video and step by step instructions. Thank you! One question: I noticed that when you were first placing the laminate on the canvas, you paused and then turned the laminate over. Which side of the laminate did you choose to be touching the canvas vs facing up to be sublimated later? By the way you switched your original placement, I'm guessing there is a difference in the sides.

A game changer is this, what micron is the laminate you use.

This is fantastic, thank you. Do you know how permanent it would be on wood - i.e will it peel off? Thank you

I've sublimated directly onto wood, no poly coating. It works but it isn't very vibrant. It would be easier to prime it with some kind of polyester coating instead of laminating it, but im sure laminating like this would work too.

So my question is on the canvas could you not use the poly spray and get the same results a little cheaper and easier? I thought about the warping issue and if you get a spray bottle that did light mist I believe it would be fine.

hello Southpaw STUDIO. this is one of the best subscriptions I Joined. Your presentations are great. I like the laminate idea. Here is my question. I have been wanting to subloimate on a dollar tree pint glass for beer. Can I put a layer of laminate on the glass, shrinkwrap the laminate and then sublimate on the glass? That would be great. What temp should I do the laminate? for how long.

Can you use this method to infuse onto a black surface?

can I use this technique for a phone case too? i wanna have a glossy finish

I'm a little confused. When you heat the laminate onto the canvas board is that temp the same as the 350 for 120 seconds? Or how long to melt it on. Also later in the comments you mentioned a different time? You make it look easy.
