How To Tape A Sublimation Tumbler For Perfect Edges!
Hey, and welcome! In this episode, I’m going to show you how I wrap sublimation tumblers to get the perfect edges and seam. This newer way is only a slight adjustment to how I’ve been wrapping them, but for designs with solid colors, especially blacks, this has been working quite well for me. I think the thicker tape also has something to do with being able to tighten up the edges without pulling the paper.
Please check out our Facebook group, groups/55947.... If you enjoy sublimation, just answer a couple of quick questions and join. We’d love to have you!
If you’re looking for some unique designs, be sure to check out my digital design website. www.industrialfringedesigns.com/

To remove the air from my tape seam I use a matha stuard card maker tool, It works perfect. I also use the shrink wrap. I have a tumbler press but I perfer to use the same oven you used.

Do you the wrap for sale ?
I have the same press and having trouble with getting good results on the top and bottom edges, so I'm about to try your method to see if I can improve. But I have a question, do I need to adjust those two knobs on the front of the press. I'm confused on their purpose.

Hey, Christina! I believe the front two knobs are for making the heating element conform to smaller attachments, bug I don’t have any of those smaller attachments, so I’m just guessing. I leave them completely open. Also, I use light to medium pressure (more on the lighter side). Good luck! Let me know how it comes out!
putting a line on the seem is the best when a thinner lin because that seems to be drive everyone crazy!

I love your videos. I am struggling with seams and ghosting around the top and bottom. After watching how you tape, I think I know what I was doing wrong on the top and bottom. It is difficult to see, are you overlapping at all? Even a tiny little bit or are you butting the edges up? The one I did when I overlapped a fraction looked better than when I attempted to butt them together. Do you have a video of how you design your intentional seams? TIA

Hey, Gayla, I’m so glad you enjoy the videos! My first piece of tape overhangs by only a small amount, jut enough to have tape to connect with the bottom of the tumbler. My second piece is situated halfway along the edge, as it’s only task is to pull everything tight. And yes, check out my video about perfect seams. I touch base on creating seams there. Thanks so much for watching!
I love the seems, are you able to show how you did the seems in the design?

Absolutely! Check out this video, it goes over the entire process! kzread.info/dash/bejne/gJiE0a1seZfehLA.html Thanks for watching!
Thank you. My Tumbler came out perfect with this method. I bought the wider tape and it worked well. Does your tape come up from the heat in the top and bottom? Luckily I had it on well with the two layers.

Hey, Valerie! If I use an oven, sometimes the tape becomes loose (if I’m not using shrink wrap), but it remains on if using a press…for the most part! Thanks so much for watching!

What size do you print your design to for the top and bottom loved your video

Hope, my images are 9-1/4” wide by just a touch under 8-1/8” tall. I do measure every time I get a new case of tumblers, as they can vary. But that measurement usually works! Thanks for watching!
I would like to know when you add the seam line? If it is before you print your design, do you add a small line of either side of your print so it meets and joins together?

Thanks for asking. I added the seam when I was creating the files. They were part of the image. On some images, I only add it to one side. If the line has a shadow or a jagged edge, sometimes I’ll add it to one side, then copy and reverse it and add it to the other side as well. If I do that, the second side is a little wider to account for the slight overlap. Thanks for watching!
