APPROXIMATE MEASUREMENTS

RECOMMENDED SUBLIMATION INSTRUCTIONS AND PARAMETERS

WITH TRANSFER PRESS (DIRECT METHOD)

• Print the design in mirror mode
• Heat the press to 180 ºC
• Use a Nomex mat on the lower plate of the press to ensure even heat distribution
• Place the printed paper on the tile and fix it with heat-resistant tape. Place the tile with the sublimatable side facing up on the press plate
• Close the press at medium-high pressure for 180 seconds
• With the help of a protective glove, remove the freshly printed tile

WITH TRANSFER PRESS (INDIRECT METHOD)

• Print the design in mirror mode
• Heat the press to 180 ºC
• Use a Nomex mat on the lower plate of the press to ensure even heat distribution
• Place the printed paper on the tile and fix it with heat-resistant tape. Place the tile with the sublimatable side facing down on the press plate
• Close the press at medium-high pressure for 700 seconds

• If using a 3D oven, place the tile with the printable side facing up. Close the membrane and create a vacuum. Make sure there are no air bubbles on the surface
• Another option is to use shrink bags. With the help of a heat gun, secure the design to the tile, removing all air from inside
