LANYARD SUBLIMATION

Supplies needed:
- sublimatable substrate (lanyard)
- sublimation transfer
- teflon or scratch paper
- repositionable spray
- soft paper towel

Heat press settings:
- temperature - 390 degrees F
- dwell time - 1 minute
- pressure - medium

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 helps to distribute the

pressure evenly throughout the substrate and absorb any stray ink

that does not get transferred to the product due to an overprint

or bleed edge.

3rd Note: To adhere the transfer to the substrate use

repositionable spray on the transfer instead of heat tape.

4th Note: For best results open up the breakaway clip and

sublimate one half of the lanyard at a time.


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
3. substrate (lanyard)
4. transfer
5. teflon sheet or scratch paper

Steps:
1. Spray the transfer with repositionable spray.
2. Position the substrate onto the transfer.
3. Place the transfer and substrate in the press onto the paper

towel (transfer on top of substrate). Place across the press so

that the clips hang off the press.
4. Place the teflon sheet or scratch paper over the substrate and

transfer.
5. Press the items using the settings listed above.
6. Remove the transfer from the substrate and items from the press

immediately. Use heat resistant gloves if necessary - the items

will be very hot.
7. Allow item to cool before sublimating 2nd side.

Tips:
- If the image of the final product appears light increase the

pressure or the dwell time slightly (10-20 seconds).
- If the image on the final product appears blurred or substrate

appears yellowed reduce the dwell time slightly (10-20 seconds)
