Also, I assume the rug comes white and you sublimate the ink on it. Is that how it works? or are you sublimating onto a black rug.

It's white. You can't dye anything on totally black substrate with sublimation. Only way is if a black rug had a white panel to sublimate (such as the case with black mugs, but there are issues with those as well).

Yeah, I knew that up to this point it was not doable, but that is a really nice even full black color, so I had to wonder

 

[WildWestDesigns]

Black can turn out really well using sublimation inks, but it depends on the substrate and the profile. Type of printer can also affect how it lays and even the individual printer might actually lay a little more ink then another.

Please PM the price as well,

what machines did you finally end up getting?

On shirts how do you work the designs onto a black shirt since dye submission is best on white/light

I would actually use white poly embroidery thread and sublimate that on the darker substrates. Gives it an embroidered look, but you don't have to do the complicated digitizing if it was all embroidery. Plus you are able to use cotton and blends instead of just pure poly due to the fact that you are only sublimating on the pure poly embroidery thread.

Other then that, you would have to sublimate the white shirt black around the design. If you use this method, I would suggest using a shirt that you have to sew up afterward. Otherwise, the armpits will be an issue with getting sublimated at the very least.

I don't know of a black poly shirt that would have a white space for a sublimated design (at least the white space positioned logically for this application) like you have on black coffee mugs with the white band around them to sublimate.

White is the base for everything, if someone wants a black shirt I'll dye it all black, or just silkscreen xfer it. Easy fix. Having a huge press helps make things easier and cleaner.

Had a bunch of wraps today but still played a bit.

The pic with the dual carpets is on glass. I actually prefer tempered glass to cutting mats and we have both. Never need replacing and cleans with windex! Lol

Yup! Because our company is awthentik
it's even a federal trademark woo woo!

Tried some all over designs printed inside out so they looked worn and vintage. I think I like this type of application the most.
