Q. WOW! What a ton of information! I noticed it's been awhile since this thread began and I was curious if anyone found some newer products that could be used for the typical Mom. I've literally been online for about an hour now looking for a directly forward product to spray vs. manus paint onto ceramic, woods, metallic and glass. Does anyone have whatsoever ideas that are less than the $30 can of spray I plant?

RFQ: I'm looking for a supplier of the coating to make items sublimitable. I intend to glaze these items myself hither in the Philippines to lower the costs since our substitution rate is around 50 - 52 Pesos to a US Dollar.

If I don't do this, sublimation will not be adequate hither due to the cost. And I wouldn't want to happen considering I see enormous potential on sublimation.

Cheers!

A. Howdy Ronald. There is brief coverage of this topic in a recent edition of Products Finishing mag at:
world wide web.pfonline.com/articles/dye-sublimation-coating(2)

To summarize, in case that article goes off the air, it recommends using a ii-component polyester of wax-costless limerick. Unmarried component coatings (unless especially designed for sublimation) are unlikely to work too because they may incorporate drying oils which volition interfere with the process. Expert luck.

Q. We are a small unit that does heat transfers on ceramic mugs, for corporate gifting.
We are experimenting with a drinking glass based coating (glass stoving) which is sprayed equally an overcoating on the mug later the decal has been transferred. The mug is and then heated in an oven at 150 °C. The results are satisfactory, but demand to be improved. The glass coating can be scratched out with a little attempt. The blanket does not adhere very well or permanently to the ceramic mug. Hence we find the coating is not suitable for sublimation transfers.

Could you lot please suggest an alternative blanket and temperature for firing.

Our unit is located in India.

Your valued suggestion volition exist sincerely appreciated.

A. Hi Mandy. The word polymer alone doesn't means much, every bit it covers plastics, proteins, and other things. Simply the particular polymers in question are polyesters similar to car paints.

A. Hey, don't go out and purchase the expensive sublimation coatings. I've been doing months worth of research. Yous really aren't going to believe this merely become purchase Rave 4X hairspray .

..(yeah, I'thou serious). I've successfully used information technology on porcelain tiles, wood and most recently a 100% cotton wool T-shirt. When I used the T-shirt I washed it three times in cold water (didn't use hot) and dried it. NO Color FADE. The reason I did this research is because it takes me a calendar week to get the coating in and equally a concern just starting out I couldn't afford to accept a lot of it in stock.

Hi Mamoru. The blanket type should be optimized for the kind of object you are putting them on; t-shirts, for example, use soft and absorbable treatments; they don't employ the same glossy hard coatings as mugs. And that idea holds whether you wish to sublimate into the coatings or not. Hair spray might exist fine to be absorbed by a cotton t-shirt (I'll have Angela's word), only hair spray doesn't seem to me to exist a suitable coating for a mug regardless of whether it is sublimatable.

Hi Niledi. I don't know too much about this subject, only I see many sites that sell everything from the sublimatable inkjet cartridges, to the printing papers, to the coating materials, to various fixtures and machines for the transfer of the images. While information technology is certainly very expensive to send mugs, I don't see why the shipping price for a drum of the blanket textile should exist prohibitive. Good luck.

Q. Hello, I am new to the sublimation business concern and I own simply ane mug press. So far, I am very impressed with the results and I would like it to be part of my pocket-size business. I have a minor calibration desktop printing business and my target market is not Course A. If I do offer the sublimation mugs using coated mugs imported from other countries, I find that the price seem then high. I would like to search for ways on how to coat ceramic mugs for sublimation. Please assistance. Is information technology easy? I heard that you tin use polyurethane . I've tried it, the graphic did transfer to the mug but it didn't seem to have that glossy coating that the coated mugs have. please assistance.

Some success and some errors in sublimation coating

March 28, 2014

Q. Hi Ted,
Thanks for doing such a noble job of helping people past your website. I am likewise in trade of heat sublimation printing on mugs and plates, but in our country about of the bare products are imported from China so they are common; everyone has the same products. I want to develop new products and designs but problem is the same: The COATING, HOW TO COAT THE PRODUCTS, WHAT ARE THE CHEMICALS? I tried above said formula of clear coat with hardener merely there is problem after printing print newspaper sticks to the products. And so I have to moisture the paper to remove from product. On some surfaces it leaves the print and on metals it completely done away. Does anybody know the solution or correct method and ratio of chemicals.

A. Hullo Dinesh. Cheers for the kind words, but running this site is merely how I earn my living.

It may seem slightly magical that polyester clearcoats can blot sublimatable ink, merely you must non let this steal your focus from the main issue that they are paints/coatings and that what y'all are trying to practice is to paint/coat a substrate. When you say it washes away from metals, I am non certain if you are talking almost the coating or merely the image. If the blanket is washing away I can merely say that you must study painting equally much as sublimation scientific discipline. Paints only wash abroad if the substrate is muddy, or has non been properly prepared and activated, or if the paint material is wholly inadequate in composition. Attempt properly pretreating the metal, priming it with a white paint, so applying your 2-component wax-free 100% solids polyester pigment for sublimation.

If the pigment is sticking properly just the sublimation prototype washes off, it means information technology has not been absorbed into the coating. Please read the short Products Finishing article nosotros linked to a higher place, and find out if your articulate coat has waxes or other ingredients that hamper the absorption. Good luck.

A. Hi kudakwashe. Apparently i of the downsides of today'due south electronic technology is that it doesn't make economic sense to spend years writing a skilful book or DVD anymore, only to accept it ripped off :-)

... considering information technology'southward funny, but I've been looking difficult merely unsuccessfully for many years for a book roofing the whole subject of sublimation coating and haven't found even ane. I think you lot'll demand to read what's bachelor on the field of study in a one-half-dozen dissimilar arts & crafts books and manufacturing applied science books because I don't remember you'll observe a perfect tutorial :-(

But http://world wide web.myenmart.com/Dye_Sublimation_Guide.pdf may be a skillful offset. Proficient luck.

A. The company I work for has experimented with countless materials and substrates doing sublimation. From fiberglass resin to hairsprays and automotive clears. The cardinal is 100% polyester coating. We found by far on most substrates, other than fabric, a special powdercoating articulate works every time and a pound of inexpensive powdercoating goes a long mode. We sublimate all our faceplates of steel doing this. We put a white base on, either liquid or powder. Liquid tends to yellowish simply works fine. So spray the clear and information technology'due south ready to sublimate. Results are perfect as long as proper force per unit area, temp, time are used which vary with material. I hopes this helps. Would be happy to answer any further questions.

Sublimation printing onto rubber

Feb 21, 2017

Q. We are trying to print onto a rubber key pad. We take successfully used the sublimation process and printed the keys. They looked ok not stellar but they'll piece of work. The problem is when we came in the next morning the numbers were gone. Yesterday we couldn't get them off and today its like disappearing ink. I'm assuming that the safety has adsorbed the ink. What'south the all-time coating to care for the rubber with prior to sublimation?

Give thanks yous for your input.

Dye sublimation on powder coated steel

Baronial 21, 2017

Q. I have powder coated steel components (small, flat 11 gauge hot rolled) and would like to add together graphics/images using dye sublimation. I have looked but can't detect any powders specifically recommended for this procedure. I know this type of powder must have a loftier polyester content simply would similar to go recommendations for powders that piece of work for this process rather than wasting time and coin experimenting until I detect the right one.

A. Hello Christina. The "powdercoat" that Chris is speaking of is available from PPG, Tiger Drylac, Interpon, AkzoNobel and many other suppliers who you tin find by googling "pulverisation coating pulverisation manufacturers". But I'm non sure if that will actually help you :-(

Chris is talking virtually a process used in large calibration industrial factory coating. It'due south not a matter simply of buying pulverization coating powder; y'all and then need sprays guns with electrostatic accuse units and a spray booth to utilise the powder, then curing ovens to fuse information technology, and other large equipment. If y'all are thinking of hobby, arts and crafts, or home preparation of parts for sublimation coating, you'll need a technology that can exist done at a small scale at home, and that probably limits yous to brushable or sprayable liquid paints. Of these (if you lot don't desire to buy blanket materials marketed specifically for the purpose) 2-K polyester automotive clear coats are probably the best approach according to previously referenced threads.
