How do you dye-sub to an umbrella please?

Not bought any yet, just curious as to how it's done before I offer them :)

Thanks

You can get umbrella platens for some heat presses that are shaped to the section of the brollie. You can either dye-sub or apply vinyl. I've only ever done a couple with a simple vinyl design but it looked good. I had a pocket platen which worked fine but you need 2 pairs of hands ideally!

Thanks Justin :)

Too footery and time consuming in other words :lol:

Think I'll give it a miss then

We had one sitting there so I thought I'd have a go, personally I have no Market as we don't use brollies here due to the wind, fair bit of messing around yes.
