CHROMALUXE PANEL SUBLIMATION

Supplies needed:
- sublimatable substrate (ChromaLuxe panel)
- sublimation transfer
- teflon or scratch paper
- heat tape
- soft paper towel

Heat press settings:
- temperature - 400 degrees F
- dwell time - 1 minute 10 secs
- pressure - light

Note: The recommended settings above may need adjustments for best results.
Settings will vary depending on the heat press brand and model ink and paper
and atmospheric conditions.

2nd Note: The layers of soft paper towel achieve two goals: 1. it helps to
distribute the pressure evenly throughout the substrate; 2. it helps to trap
ink that is dispersed outside of the edges of the substrate if there is an
overprint area or full bleed in the artwork.

Layer the press from the bottom pad to the top heat platen as follows:
1. teflon sheet or scratch paper
2. 2-3 layers of soft paper towel (this helps distribute the pressure
evenly)
3. transfer
4. substrate
5. teflon sheet or scratch paper

Steps:
1. Remove the protective plastic coating from the substrate
2. Place the substrate onto the transfer.
3. Tape two ends of the substrate to the transfer using the heat tape on two
sides.
4. Place the transfer and substrate in the press onto the paper towel
(transfer under substrate)
5. Place the teflon sheet or scratch paper over the transfer and substrate.
6. Press the items using the settings listed above.
7. Remove items from the press immediately. Use heat resistant gloves if
necessary - the items will be very hot.
8. Tear the transfer in half opposite of the taped ends.
