I have a little experience in sub printing on ceramics and mdf etc. Can't seem to manage fabrics with much success. Has anyone got any tips for temp and time pls.😊?

What material is the fabric? What printer and inks are you using? Sublimation will only work on a polyester garment or one with a high % of polyester

I have bought sublimation pillow cases. The recommended temp is 190 degrees. But my press only goes down to 200. Not sure of the timing either as I get scorching. Can you advise?

What press are you using as most sublimation is at 180-190 and normally start at 0 and go up as you can use them for Tshirt vinyl which presses at lower temperatures
