Heat Press Method Instructions
Sublime® Socks come preloaded with a cardboard jig for production. Do not remove the jig before pressing.
1. Cover the bottom table of the press with a sheet of protective paper.
2. Secure transfer to substrate using Adhesive Spray.
3. Place substrate face up, with attached transfer face down, on top of protective paper on bottom table. You must imprint socks twice. You cannot imprint both sides at the same time.
4. Top with protective paper and press according to time, temperature, and pressure above.
Application notes: Socks decorated with the jig may show a white line on the jig edges. To help with that, it is suggested that when you do the second side, pull the material over the edges a little bit. Grasp the socks along the jig and slightly pull the already sublimated area forward so you can see the line of imprinting all along your jig. Doing the second side should fill the gaps. Experiment until you get the hang of it.
