Convection Oven Sublimation Directions:
- Apply sublimation transfer on the surface of the tumbler using heat tape.
- For full wrap designs, make sure you pull the transfer as tightly as possible around the tumbler, then tape very well along the seam and around the top/bottom of the tumbler.
- Pulling the tape/transfer as tight as possible with no air pockets.
- If your transfer does not fully cover the tumbler surface, apply blowout/butcher paper to the entire tumbler so that no metal is showing on the sides.
- Apply shrink wrap using a heat gun to shrink it tight to the tumbler.
- Bake in a convection oven at approximately 385-400 degrees F for 5-6 minutes, turning halfway.
- If your tumbler is touching a metal surface during baking, the shrink wrap will be more likely to melt!
- Remove from oven and immediately remove shrink wrap and transfer.
- TUMBLER WILL BE HOT!! No sealant is necessary on sublimation tumblers.
Note:
Hand washing is recommended as the high heat in many dishwashers may reactivate the ink and cause it to bleed.
PLEASE NOTE:
- Equipment varies and so may your required settings.
- Please test your equipment using these baseline recommendations.
