I am so happy I came across this video. I wondered if the paper weight had any bearing on the seam! Yours came out perfect. Thank you

Thank you so much for this video! What a difference. Just ordered 105g sublimation paper. Can’t wait to try it!

Thanks for sharing I did order one in hopes it will help make the tumblers look even better. I just started sublimating.

Absolutely beautiful!

I have some 105 A-Sub but was recently told to go from 120 to 125 for tumblers. But I’ll try anything. But as a semi-newb trying to get past this issue it was really frustrating that you didn’t show the seam as you taped. I want to know if you overlap at all or if you try to cut it perfect enough that the edges but up together.

Looks great with the light aweosme

I usually use 120g but just ordered 105g so my fingers are crossed. I have 2 pinch perfect and love them.

Wow! Thank you for this. I haven’t started sublimating yet and this is great to know! Also what is the pinch perfect tool and do you have a link for it?

They look awesome. the color is beautiful and your seam is great. what do you do for the top and bottom edges to not have the uneven white part? thanks,

I am newer to sublimating tumblers and mugs. I ordered A-sub paper 105 just because it seemed like a happy medium between the most expensive 125 weight and the economy version. My mugs and tumblers have all turned out well. No complaints. I haven’t tried 125 but I don’t feel the need to and it’s more expensive

I have 105g paper. Definitely going to try this on the next tumbler I make.

Let me know how it works for you! Its all I've been using to make tumblers for my Christmas orders this year!

Hi Amy, Thanks for sharing this video. What size tumblers are you using and what size is that pinch perfect? Is it the standard size?

TexPrint DT Is 105gsm and is used for Hard and soft substrates. you use 120gsm for heavy ink release

hi. i just came across this video. what do you mean by heavy ink release? do you mean something like black or dark colors? or does it have a different usage? thanks so much.

I've also seen a 80 gm sublimation paper - I wonder how that would be. Is there such a thing as too light?

Great. What size do you cut your tumbler prints (20oz skinny)

Hi Amy.. May I ask what paper settings you use. I have this paper but using my 125 and 123 GSM paper settings makes then paper too wet. Should I use plain paper and maybe use high instead of best quality...or lower my print density?

How do you avoid ghosting at the top and bottom ?

what dimensions do you print with to get the seam to line up

❤ Big difference in the paper weight, I notice you didn't tape around the top or bottom edges before pressing, is taping around absolutely necessary? I'm a newbie and need expert advice

Why do you think the lighter weight works better?

I use higher number paper, and didn’t use pinch perfect, have a perfect seam.

What printer are you using? I have the Sawgrass 500 and the ink is gel based so I need the heavier paper for a better ink release. I will try the Pinch Perfect and see if that helps.

I have the SG400 but so far the 105g paper has been working much better for me personally.

I'm new to this but after seeing the clip I just ordered lighter weight. I be back to give you your praise if this works.

what size do you print your photos at? because everytime i print mine, it always has a white line either on top or bottom

Same- i just trim those off. My usual design size is 9.3x8.2inches in photoshop and I print off at that size and then just trim the white off and it will wrap around at the right size.

Mine are 9.3x8.2 inches in photoshop when I design them and then I print them at that same size. There is some excess white around the edges but I just trim that off and the design will wrap around at the right size.

My tape is from Heat Press Nation. I've used some others and didn't have much success but this one has worked well for me so I've stuck with it.

Going to try this paper, bought the pinch perfect and does not work threw it away. I'm guessing when 2 solid colors meet like black on black most of the times you will get a seam line.

I'm sorry the Pinch Perfect didn't work for you...I think you're right- the darker colors (like black) are just hard in general with seam lines but I do think this helps...but thats just my opinion.

Do you overlap your paper at all?

@amycreates1075

I do overlap a very small part. Typically about a quarter inch of overlap.

This is a great tutorial. Thanks. Question: You barely taped it. Everyone else tapes the heck out of it. Can this be true?

@@amycreates1075And you had a huge gap on the top of your tumbler press. Mine is tightened to it meets at top the. Backed off a bit. Before and after you rotated your tumbler we could see a gap between the paper and the tumbler along the edge of the cup. I can’t understand how it successfully transferred without under-processed imagery. This is my first time to your videos. I hope I’ll find a newer update addressing some of those same areas.

Do you tape the rim and bottom?

I have a couple of times but I normally do not tape the top or bottom. I do the one line down like in the video and that has worked very well for me so far. 😊
