Hi, what do think which is easier between the toaster oven or sublimation oven? I am a crafter and don't want to buy so many toys. $$ is not to be waste. I wasn't happy with heat press, maker 3 (I know it's for starter, but rather spend more and get better products). Thanks

the sublimation sleeves I bought from PYD state the maximum degrees for the sleeve is 356 degrees but the video I watched set the temperature of the oven at 375 degrees what is the correct temperature for a 20or 30 ounce skinny tumbler with a shrink sleeve and for how long

Each tumbler is different but I haven't had issues with PYD life sleeves at high temperatures.

Hi Angie, I am looking to purchase a sublimation oven. I have watched your video on comparing the convection oven to the sublimation oven, but I would like to know which of the made for sublimation ovens you recommend. Can you help me with this? Do you have a video that does this kind of comparison? Lu Ann Rogers

If it’s too wide ( wrap) and my tumbler is Slim can I fold and tape back to fit the slim tumbler?

No need to fold and tape. Just shrink it. It will shrink up.

Can you use these on a shot glass in a sublimation tumbler press since I don't have a conical for small items like shot glass or those new shot glass tumblers. If you can do you need to heat them first or just fold it over, tape it and put it in the press?

@AngieHolden 4 ай бұрын

To do shot glasses in a tumbler press, you would need the right attachment. These are not for a press but for use in an oven.

@@AngieHolden Ok, thank you. I saw someone put a shot glass in a heat shrink wrap and put it in her tumbler and sublimated it like that but I wasn't sure that was really safe to do.

Thanks Angie… love your videos. Quick question… I had purchased and returned some shrink wrap sleeves because they melted in my oven. I was wanting to try some full wrap mugs (using your other video as reference) so after watching this I decided to try some PYD Life wraps. However, in your video on doing the full wrap mugs, you set your oven to 383º for 6 minutes but the wraps I just got from PYD life say max heat 356º. So far when I’ve done mugs in my convection oven I have used a silicone wrap and done them for 14 min at 400º. I am concerned that only using 356º for 6 minutes is not going to be enough to actually transfer the full sublimation print. Can you confirm - have you used PYD Life wraps and done them at 383º?

@AngieHolden 7 ай бұрын

You can do a lower temperature for a longer time as a general rule. I have used their wraps at high temps though but not specifically on mugs.

@msmello925 3 ай бұрын

@rosemarybrodt8852 - Have you been successful in using the PYD sleeves that have the 356-degree maximum? I want to do mugs in my convection oven, but am curious as to the correct time to bake them for since we're using such a low temp.

Just cut the length or where it opens. It will shrink in the other direction.

What I don't understand is all these shrink wraps i find online here in the uk stated heat 140 for 8 to 10 mins but if i do mugs normally using a silicone clamp in a oven i have to do 200 for 8 to 10 mins So i dont understand how the mug and image will transfer properly if only 140
