Application for sublimation printing
The dye-sublimation printing process is used to print on polyester or other synthetic fabrics. It is used for applications such as T-shirts, banners, table covers, id cards, sportswear and flags. The printing process we use at Starstuff Clothing is called sublimation printing. It allows us to get an incredibly vibrant, detailed print that is unmatched by any other printing process out there. Instead of laying ink on top of clothing like a traditional screen printer, sublimation actually dyes the fabric itself -- leaving a soft touch, and an image that will never crack or fade over time. There are a ton of benefits to using sublimation, and it would be impossible to create clothing that looks and feels this good without it.

1. Advantages of dye-sublimation over other methods of textile printing
• Images are permanent and do not peel or fade.
• Dye does not build up on the fabric.
• Colors can be extraordinarily brilliant due to the bonding of the dye to the transparent fibers of the synthetic fabric.
• Truly continuous tones can be achieved that are equivalent to photographs, without the use special techniques such as half-screen printing.
• The image can be printed all over the entire item, with no difficulty in printing all the way to the edges.

Disadvantages for sublimation printing
• The printer speed is low.
• Any creases in the apparel during printing leave blank spots behind

FAQ:

What about the "Sticky" is of Tacky Sublimation Transfer Paper?   

   
a.In terms of the sticky now, our Sticky Sublimation Transfer Paper can meet requirements for the viscosity (The sticky will be reinforced in the heat transfer printing, but after that, the sublimation paper and fabric will be naturally separated). Because the sticky will have some impacts on the drying speed, so we do not try more sticky sublimation paper. But there still have some customers want to separate the paper and fabric manually after the heating. In this case, we should command the needs of customers, because the factory can provide samples with more viscous.

b.Should know the needs of the sticky for different customers, need very sticky or just a little sticky. In the previous time, the factory has some customers who do Sportswear just need a little sticky, because it is hard to separate the paper and the fabric if the sticky is so strong, and some cloth will be a little of deformation. (Of course, some cloth can bear a big pressure.)  

c. Once after the printing, you need to transfer the pictures in the first time, so the sticky will be more strong due to the large water content (more humidity, more strong sticky); Conversely, if you transfer after a period of time of the printing, the sticky will be lower; In addition, different fabrics and ink will have a big difference on the sticky.
