♨️ Sublimation Instructions for Aluminium Shadow Mount Medium

📋 Materials Needed

• Sublimation printer and sublimation ink
• Sublimation paper
• Heat-resistant tape
• Aluminium Shadow Mount Medium (Substrate)

📝 Preparation

1. For templates, Mock-ups and image size required, please refer to the Design tab.
2. Print your design, DO NOT MIRROR your image.
3. Clean the substrate printing surface using a microfiber cloth or lint brush to remove dust, oils or lint. (As per substrate)
4. Place the substrate sublimation printable area facing up, align the print to cover the area.
5. Secure the edges using heat-resistant tape to prevent movement.

❄️ Cooling and Assembly

1. Carefully remove the substrate from the press (it will be hot).
2. Peel off the sublimation paper while the substrate is warm for best results.
3. Allow the substrate to cool completely.

✅ Tips for Best Results

• Ensure full edge-to-edge coverage in your design to avoid white borders (ensure bleed is sufficient).
• If colours look dull, increase time by 5 seconds or pressure slightly.
• If the coating looks yellowed, your temperature is too high or time too long.
• Store substrate in a clean, dry, dust-free area before printing.
