MAKE HEAT TRANSFER PRINTS FOR SKATEBOARDS WITH SUBLIMATION TRANSFER PAPER AND INK

A skateboard is a type of sports equipment used primarily for the activity of skateboarding. It usually consists of a specially designed maplewood board combined with a polyurethane coating used for making smoother slides and stronger durability.

Heat transfers allow skateboarders and skateboard retailers to design custom skateboards with a limitless number of colors. Since the equipment required for the heat transfer process is expensive, individuals and retailers typically design their own prints and outsource the printing to professional skateboard print services. To make heat transfer prints, create an image using graphic design software and send the image to a printing service.

Instructions:

Create a blank document in the graphic design program using the guidelines provided by the printing service. The guidelines might include a preferred resolution defined in dots per inch (DPI), the document size and the preferred color profile, such as RGB or CMYK. Alternatively, the printer might provide you with a template to use.
Draw or paste images into the blank document using the graphic design program's tools.
Add text to the design, if necessary, using a text tool.
Save the design in the printing service's preferred file format when you're done. Preferred formats might include PSD, AI, JPEG, PNG or TIFF files.
Send the design to the printer.
Put the printed paper on substrates,such as polyester and nylon fabric .
After offset printing, put the printed paper on the surface of the substrates , and with printed   surface facing downwards on the surface of substrates.
Put both the paper and substrates on the heat press.
And heat ,time and pressure is applied using a heat press. The ink sublimates i.e. converts to  gaseous form and gets deposited "into" the surface, thus transferring image.
Finally ,take out paper and fabric from heat press ,the final product will be born.
Strong Point of Feiyue Sublimation Ink:

1) This sublimation ink is safe for the environment and has no harm to skin . It does not belong  to corrosives .
2) There is no accumulation of ink on the rolls and the number of machine washings is greatly reduced.
3) Black is very intense and gives good coverage without domination of the other colors .
4) With high printing performance and outcome .
5) Have no skinning within 36 hours
Tips & Warnings
If you're frequently creating large volumes of custom skateboards, investing in a dye sublimation printer, sublimation transfer paper, a heat press and heat-activated glue might save you money over time.
If you want to change the design on an existing skateboard, paint over the current design and use screen printing or stencils and paint to print the new design.
Some printing services allow you to upload designs through an online form, so you can save time.
Using copyrighted images or trademarks in a design is illegal and might prevent your design from being printed. Increasing the size of an image might result in pixelation.
