African Pattern - Ankara #21 (Sublimation Transfer)

Ready-To-Press Full-Color Sublimation Transfers are vibrant and our detailed designs are perfect for a unique DIY project. Sublimation transfers create high-quality, washable designs on polyester garments or other substrates with a heat press. The transfer is easy to apply and fade-resistant for lasting vibrancy.

• Apply ready-to-press sublimation transfers with a heat press or Cricut Easy Press at low pressure. Irons are not recommended for this ready-to-press custom sublimation transfer.
• When pressing use a cover sheet such as butcher paper or parchment paper. Use a new sheet of paper for each transfer.
• Apply these custom vinyl heat transfers to 100% Polyester garments for a vibrant look. 65% Polyester garments will produce a less vibrant, more vintage look.  Sublimation transfers should not be applied to garments that are less than 65% polyester.  Sublimation transfers cannot be applied to 100% cotton.
• Sublimation looks best on white fabric.  Other colors may look more faded.  Sublimation cannot be seen on black or very dark-colored fabric.
• Mousepads, coasters, and mugs must have a polyester coating for proper application of the ready-to-press custom sublimation transfer.
• The percentage of polyester is the percentage of color that will be applied from the transfer.
