New to sublimation? Don’t worry I got you with my sublimation tutorials
And today’s tutorial is the first time for me too to sublimate a Clear glass Tumbler
Let’s go
What we need… Sublimation printer Sublimation paper (Loklik) Glass Tumbler (HTVRONT) Tumbler press (Loklik) Heat resistant tape Heat resistant gloves Parchment paper Paper cutter or scissors
Prepare the design on any design program you like to work with, measure you space on the glass Tumbler, resize the design and then print it.
After printing of course we have to cut the design.
Now because I was working with clear glass Tumbler for the first time i covered it with parchment paper and then turned on the Tumbler press on
195° for 240 seconds
As you will see in the picture the Tumbler press doesn’t close completely on the glass Tumbler… be careful if you are printing a whole sheet design you ja to rotate it in the middle of the time.
In my case my design was just front and back so I placed the Tumbler to make the side with no design facing up so I didn’t rotate it later.

Wow this looks amazing
I didn’t know that clear glass could be sublimated, does it need a special coating?
Only knew about the special frosted glass tumblers.
Yes as Belle said they are sublimation Tumblers and there are two types frosty and clear. I was afraid how the pictures will show but eventually they show pretty good when the glass is filled with liquids that have a colour or are dark😊
