Dye Sublimation to a Porcelain Plate Instruction

[harpo103]

But, any old plate will do the trick?

@harpo103 If coated with a polymer that will accept sublimation inks.

Any way to use old plates from flea markets?

So long as you spray or brush a coating on it, I guess.

@harpo103 Answred your own question, it needs a poly based coating. There is one on the market - DigiCoat.

Very clearly shown. I wonder how much it all costs

[condesystems]

@bobbicoker Small Sublimation printer & inks= $400, Heat presses vary, but around $1000. Paper is $12, plates are $3-$5. Pucks are $75.

[condesystems]

4.5" puck = 8 minutes

5.5" puck = 13 minutes

nice video, this will help me out. I dont have a temperature device to determine the pucks temperature how long does it take to heat the puck?
