    Hey Allan love your dedication. Saw a 3 years old video of u just now, and taught that is a dead channel but seeing this video posted recently just cool job man. I have a question tho. What do you think about sublimation floor tiles, i would love to just buy some white ceramic tiles, and printe on them for my house. but i dont know if the print would stick or fade away in years because of washing them. sory eng is not my first language.

  • @atprints
    @atprintsАй бұрын

    Thanks very much for tuning into the channel and thanks for all of your support. I think printing on floor tiles is awesome. I have two videos that can help and I would encourage you to watch them and get a greater understanding. In the first video, I coated the tile with polygloss only - kzread.info/dash/bejne/d66bu5iOhcvRgps.htmlsi=D5a0E9ecma1xO0wa and the second video was a comparison between a sublimation tile vs a regular floor tile coated with polygloss - kzread.info/dash/bejne/gKeIrZeQh7O9esY.htmlsi=9AvJCErR3qge9oSl. If you use the Polygloss method and the tiles are exposed to consistent sunlight they will fade after a time. However, if they are indoors I believe there shouldn't be a problem. I am not 100% sure if water is thrown on them daily they would fade. I believe it shouldn't but I am not 100% sure. I hope these two videos help and give you a greater understanding.

  • @atprints
    @atprints3 ай бұрын

    Thanks for your questions. If you are referring to the white lines after the image was pressed, this is actually because the wood isn’t fully flat so because of this when it was finished sublimated it produced those white lines. However, with the clear coating that would clean it up. To clean up your brush you can use water as it was mostly a water base paint or thinners. I hope this helps.

    Thanks for your question and I do apologize for the late response. So in this case these wouldn’t be dishwasher safe. I would recommend washing by hand. The reason why these wouldn’t be dishwasher safe is when to much heat from the dishwasher starts to apply on the jars it could reactivate the polygloss. So the safest way is to wash by hand. It will last very long. I have other polygloss projects I did over 4 years and they are still good up until today as I am sending this message. I hope this answer helps you.
