How do I prepare a ceramic bowl for sublimation?

For sublimation on ceramic bowls, first clean the item and let it dry. Print your design in reverse on sublimation paper using sublimation ink. Attach the design to the ceramic with heat-resistant tape, ensuring it's smooth. Use a heat press set at 370-380°F with firm pressure for 13-15 minutes. Allow the ceramic to cool before removing the paper. The design should be vibrant and permanent. Read full details and more tips here.

Can you use sublimation on ceramic?

Yes, you can use sublimation on ceramics, provided they have a special polymer coating to ensure proper ink adhesion. This process involves printing a design with sublimation ink on special paper, then transferring it onto the ceramic using high heat and pressure. The result is a vibrant, permanent image that's embedded into the surface. Sublimation works well on items like mugs, plates, and tiles, offering a durable and professional finish.

Are there sublimation templates for ceramic bowls?

Yes, we have free sublimation templates available for ceramic bowls. These templates are incredibly helpful as they precisely match the size and shape of the bowl, eliminating the guesswork involved in sizing your design. You simply insert your chosen design into the template, ensuring it fits perfectly to the contours of the bowl. After printing the design using a sublimation printer, you then transfer it onto the bowl using a heat press. This streamlined process ensures a professional and accurately placed design every time.

How should I clean sublimated ceramic bowls?

These ceramic bowls are dishwasher safe! Your custom sublimation bowl can be put in the dishwasher.
