Sublimation tumbler totes are a popular item for customization and personalization. These totes are typically made of polyester material, which is suitable for sublimation printing. Sublimation printing is a process where the ink is transferred onto the material using heat and pressure, which results in a high-quality, durable print that won't fade or peel.
To create a sublimation tumbler tote, you will need the following materials and equipment:
Materials:
- Sublimation tumbler tote
- Sublimation paper
- Sublimation ink
- Heat-resistant tape
Equipment:
- Sublimation printer
- Heat press
- Heat-resistant gloves
Here are the steps to sublimate a tumbler tote:
-
Design your image using a graphics software program, such as Adobe Photoshop or Illustrator. Make sure your image is sized to fit the tote.
-
Print your image onto sublimation paper using a sublimation printer. Be sure to mirror your image before printing.
-
Preheat your heat press to 400°F.
-
Place your tumbler tote onto the heat press, with the side you want to print facing up.
-
Place your sublimation paper face down onto the tote, making sure it's centered and straight. Use heat-resistant tape to secure the paper in place.
-
Use the heat press to press the tote and sublimation paper together for 45-60 seconds, with firm pressure.
-
Once the time is up, carefully remove the tote from the heat press using heat-resistant gloves.
-
Peel the sublimation paper off the tote, starting at one corner and pulling slowly.
-
Your sublimation tumbler tote is now complete! Allow it to cool before handling.
Note: Time and temperature may vary depending on the specific materials and equipment you are using, so it's always a good idea to refer to the instructions provided by your supplier.
