 SUBLIMATION - Sublimation has made a comeback! This extremely unique printing technique is popping up everywhere from athletic wear to the latest fashions. Sublimation differs from all other heat transfer products in that when heated gasses are dispensed into the fibers where they explode and dye the actual fabric, instead of sitting on top of the substrate as other heat transfers do. As a result, sublimation is undetectable to the touch. The graphic feels like part of the garment. Sublimation holds excellent detail and registration and can run either spot color or four color process graphics. Great for all over prints, going off edges, and to use with other heat transfer products for a multi-media effect. Works best on 100% polyester, nylon and synthetics. Cotton blends must be tested.
