How to Get a Perfect Tumbler Sublimation - NO Seams or Ghosting!

Тәжірибелік нұсқаулар және стиль

Some of the biggest and hardest issues to troubleshoot with sublimating a tumbler are ghosting at the top and gaps along the seams. We have been working on techniques to avoid these tumbler issues, and we're excited to share those with you all today! We cover everything from how to print a sublimation design, how to cut a sublimation design to the right size, how to wrap a tumbler for sublimation, and the best time and temperature for tumbler sublimation.
We also discuss how to choose designs for sublimation tumblers--and talk about which sublimation designs are easier or harder to use and get good tumbler sublimation results.
We hope you learn the best way to sublimate a tumbler through this video and finally get rid of ghosting at the top and bottom of a sublimation tumbler, as well as how to get a good seam on a sublimation tumbler.
Big thanks to Hiipoo for sponsoring this video and providing the materials for us to do this project! We've worked with them for a LONG time and absolutely love their sublimation products. As always, all of the materials and designs we showed are linked below!

    Hi Guys! Thank you for all your awesome videos, I have a SawGrass SG500 sublimation printer, the picture I'm going to use is bigger than letter size paper so I have to slice the picture but I am not sure is it even possible to sublimate the two pictures very accurately on the fabric ? would you consider to make a video about this subject?! Thank you so very much!

    We think it would be possible with some precision trim work where the two halves meet and supper accurate tape work. Basically a trick shot. We'll put some thought into making a video on this. How this was helpful and thanks for watching!

  • @JustMightDIY

    4 ай бұрын

    Hi! Shrink wrap is for use in convection ovens, not in tumbler presses. The wrap provides pressure when you can’t otherwise get it. Since a tumbler press clamps around the substrate, a wrap is superfluous. And to get perfect seams and tops and bottoms, you’d still need to tape. Hope this helps!

    Hi, you two . . . just have one more sublimation tumbler question. In the last Hiipoo case I received, there were two "green" tumblers included in the box. They look like glitter, and says sublimation on the box, but I was wondering if you have tried them, and if so, what colors would sublimate the best on these? Thank you for your time, and all your wonder "Just Might DIY" videos!!

    Hey there! It’s hard to say what would look good on it without seeing it. However, we did a purple-ish shimmer tumbler in this video and really liked the results: kzread.info/dash/bejne/ZpqZrqdvmZWnZrQ.html Just remember that sublimation ink is translucent, so that green may show through a bit. We would probably aim for complimentary colors (like blues, darker greens, and black) but stay away from reds, pinks and oranges.

    Do the boxes that hippo include with the individual tumblers have space to put the straw in? I’m finding a lot of these boxes are just big enough for the Tumblr but if you put the straw in the box is too small.

    The straw might be a bit long to fit in the tumbler box perfect. Other than that, don't see why not. We didn't really check that at the time of the making of this video

    Great question. Doing a full wrap is tricky to control how the edges meet. We never had the success with shrink the way we could using the heat tape. If you have success with it, let us know 😁

    Hey! Either your print settings are adjusting it down, or your tumbler may be slightly larger than standard (there’s some variation between brands even in the same size). Try increasing the dimensions in photoshop until it fits.
