“Bring Your Designs to Life with Quaff 24-inch Vinyl Sublimation Paper!” – SUBLIMATIONTRANSFERPAPER – Fast Dry Sublimation Heat Paper Factory, High-Speed Sublimation Transfer Paper Wholesale, Made in China
1. Pre – printing Preparation
Start by ensuring your design is optimized for sublimation—high resolution and mirrored (for textiles) are essential. Load the Quaff 24-inch Vinyl Sublimation Paper into a wide – format sublimation printer, matching the paper size in your printer settings. Use dedicated sublimation inks to guarantee vibrant color transfer. Pre – cut the vinyl sublimation paper to fit your substrate if needed, and wipe the target material (such as polyester fabrics, coated metal, or PVC panels) with a lint – free cloth to remove dust and debris.
2. Printing & Drying Process
Initiate the print job, making sure the printer’s temperature and speed settings are calibrated for sublimation paper—refer to Quaff’s official guidelines for optimal parameters. After printing, let the ink on the paper air – dry completely for 5–10 minutes, or use a low – heat dryer for 1–2 minutes. This step prevents ink smudging during the heat transfer stage and ensures crisp, clear patterns.
3. Heat Press Application
Place the printed side of the Quaff 24-inch Vinyl Sublimation Paper face – down onto the pre – heated substrate. Secure the paper with heat – resistant tape to avoid shifting during pressing. Set your heat press to the recommended temperature (180–200°C for most substrates), pressure (medium to high), and time (20–60 seconds). Once the timer ends, open the press immediately and peel the sublimation paper off the substrate while it’s still warm for the best transfer results.
4. Post – processing Tips
After peeling, inspect the transferred design for uniformity. For textiles, wash the item in cold water with mild detergent after 24 hours to enhance color fastness. For hard substrates, apply a clear protective coating if needed to boost scratch resistance. Store unused Quaff 24-inch Vinyl Sublimation Paper in a sealed bag in a cool, dry place to prevent moisture absorption and maintain print quality.
