A. Sublimation is a method of applying a photographic image to items such as coffee mugs, polyester shirts, holiday ornaments and hundreds of other products.
Q. Are you able to sublimate on a dark or black shirt?
A. No we can not. The dye sublimation printing requires a light colored or white shirt for best image reproduction. Since there is no white ink the color of the fabric will show through.
