Heat Transfer Vinyl - 12In x 8Ft White HTV Vinyl Roll,White Iron on Vinyl Roll for Cricut & Cameo - Easy to Cut & Weed for Heat Vinyl Design(White)

Product Information

I used different shades of grey for each of my white sublimation shirts but you can use any light-colored high polyester count shirt to make this same type of project. Do I have to use white HTV? Premium Plus HTV Heat Transfer Vinyl(for cotton, polyester, poly-cotton, lycra, spandex and nylons) Use the design you have uploaded to Cricut Design Space to print your sublimation print and cut your HTV. You will want to weed the HTV layers and then you will be ready to make your sublimation shirts. I am using my Cricut AutoPress to make these shirts. Because sublimation calls for a higher temperature, we will do that layer first. This will also allow us to know exactly where our HTV is going to go. A: Use my free subliflower designto see how your colors look! It’s Design #385 in my resource library!

Our HTV is made from high-quality materials that can withstand repeated washings and heavy use. You can be confident that your creations will look great for years to come. We also offer a variety of colors and finishes, including matte, glossy, glitter, and metallic. This allows you to choose the perfect HTV for your project, whether you are creating a subtle design or a bold statement piece.Note: It’s important to refer to the manufacturer’s instructions for specific cleaning recommendations for your heat press and work area.

Next, trim away the excess clear HTV and the excess white iron-on and "weed" the designs by removing the excess vinyl around the outside edges of the solid design shapes. When it comes to sublimating on white heat transfer vinyl (HTV), the printing and sublimation process is a crucial part of the overall process. In this section, we will take a closer look at the steps involved in printing and sublimating on white HTV. Printing the Design on Sublimation Paper A: Even the best sublimation T-shirts on white polyester fabrics will eventually fade a little bit. To keep the sublimation image on your shirt looking nice and vibrant, turn your shirts inside out before washing them. That way, the front of the shirt won’t rub against other things in the machine. Use warm or cold water and a mild detergent to keep the design vibrant, and don’t wash them with a lot of other colors. Gentle cycle is best. Take your sublimated shirts out of the wash right when they’re done — you don’t want them sitting crumpled up and wet. Hang dry or use a dryer set to air dry or low heat. The main reason is to not expose your sublimation shirts to super high heat again, as the ink might sublimate out. Most dryers won’t get that hot on a normal setting, but the heat can still accelerate fading, as well as wear on the vinyl itself — so hanging dry is always a good idea. A: Yes and no. Let me explain! The clear heat transfer vinyl I used for this project is designed to be sublimated, and is often sold as “clear sublimation HTV”, “sublimation vinyl”, or “HTV for sublimation.” Regular clear HTV vinyl isn’t designed to accept sublimation dye, and will not work for sublimation projects. If you use a lot of heat transfer vinyl, then you may want to get a heat press or Cricut Easy Press down the road, but for today we will just focus on using an iron. If possible, one that doesn’t have a bunch of big steam holes on the bottom will work best, but you can work with whatever you have at home. Where to Iron

Premium Plain Heat Transfer Vinyl (HTV) Iron On Vinyl - A4 Sheets

I am using a blank t-shirt that I had just waiting to be vinyl-ed. I recommend that you start by measuring your shirt to give you a general idea of how wide and tall you want to cut your design. I decided to cut mine about 8 inches wide. Now that you know how to use heat transfer vinyl to make a simple t-shirt, you might want to try out some more advanced HTV techniques: Vibrant Colours: Get ready to make your designs pop! Our HTV offers a wide range of eye-catching colours that will elevate your projects to a whole new level. The intense pigmentation ensures that your creations will stand out from the crowd. Long-lasting Durability: Our HTV is made to withstand the test of time. With its exceptional quality, your designs will retain their vibrant colours and crisp details wash after wash. The steps for creating and applying a design using Heat Transfer Vinyl onto a garment are as follows:

To print the design, start by selecting the image you want to print and open it in your preferred editing software. Make any necessary adjustments, such as resizing or adjusting the colors. Once you are happy with the design, you can print it onto sublimation paper. Be sure to select the correct printer settings to ensure that the design is printed correctly. Transferring the Design onto the White HTV By following these steps to prepare the white HTV for sublimation, you can help to ensure a smooth and successful transfer process. With a little bit of care and attention to detail, you can achieve high-quality, professional-looking results that are sure to impress. Hot application is a 3-5 second press to the garment at 160°C and cool peel. No garment pre-press is required. Furthermore if you have easily marked or sensitive fabrics you can apply 123 Premium at 120°C for 20 seconds with a cold peel. Once the HTV has been trimmed, it’s time to weed the design. This involves removing any unwanted parts of the design, such as small pieces of text or intricate details that may not transfer well. To weed the HTV, use a weeding tool or a pair of tweezers to carefully remove the excess material from the design, leaving only the parts that you want to transfer onto the fabric. Applying Heat Resistant TapeMost people tend to opt for a thin, durable, PU-based HTV for printing onto t-shirts, hoodies and polo shirts, such as Sportsfilm Extra T-Shirt Vinyl or Premium Plus HTV Heat Transfer Vinyl which have both been tested to last at least 50 washes providing it’s been applied correctly with a heat press and washed according to the guidelines. We also need to preheat the entire shirt before sublimating. When the press is ready, fold the shirt in half the long way and place it on your pressing mat. Press it for 10 seconds to remove moisture and create a central crease. We also sell the Stahls HTV Colour Card which contains printed samples of each colour/finish available in the main Stahls HTV products. What Are The Differences In Different Brands of CAD-Cut Materials? Most transfers produced today which are made from CAD-Cut flex/vinyl will outlast the life of the garment that it is bonded to, providing it is applied and washed in accordance with the instructions provided. HTV materials are very durable, but to ensure that there aren’t issues we recommend that they are ironed on the reverse and not over the top of the design, and to avoid using steam as this could affect the adhesive and the longevity of the design. Do All HTV Material Brands Match In Colour?

One of the most important aspects of sublimation on white HTV is the materials you use. When it comes to ink and paper, it’s essential to invest in high-quality products. Sublimation ink is designed to work with specific papers, so it’s important to choose a compatible combination. If you’ve never used this kind of vinyl, don’t worry! My tutorial will guide you through the whole process of how to sublimate clear HTV so you end up with an awesome result the first time. It is usually possible to create a two (or even three) colour design using Heat Transfer Vinyls, by cutting the individual colours providing they’re suitable for overlaying, such as Sportsfilm E xtra and Premium Plus. Our HTV is designed to be easy to cut and weed, which makes it a great choice for beginners. You can use our HTV with any vinyl cutting machine, including the popular Cricut machines and be applied to a wide range of materials, including cotton, polyester, and even wood. This makes it a great choice for a variety of crafting projects.Although a domestic iron or hobby press could be used, to ensure that the HTV is properly applied to the garment, a heat press is strongly advised. This not only saves time, but ensures that the Heat Transfer Vinyl is applied at the HTV manufacturer’s recommended temperature, pressure and time to make the design last as long as the garment. A commercial heat press can be calibrated to these requirements and maximise your efficiency, whereas you will not be able to perform anything accurately with a hobby press, such as a Cricut EasyPress, or a domestic iron. Follow the same steps in Step 3 above to print and cut your design and HTV layers. Note that here you will have three mats instead of two. Make sure all are mirrored before continuing to print and cut. A: Nope. See the question above, and remember that the only vinyl suitable for sublimation is clear sublimation HTV, white sublimation HTV, white glitter HTV, holographic HTV, and glow-in-the-dark HTV.
