uncoated butchers paper is perfect for sublimation and protecting the heat press. for re-pressing JPSS and other transfers, you will need parchment. Just make sure it’s silicone coated and not wax coated.
Regarding this, can I sublimate without butcher paper?
No matter what you are pressing, you are going to need butcher paper, or protective paper, to protect your press and future prints. … Because of this, every time you press something, you will need a clean sheet of butcher paper.
Beside this, is teflon and parchment paper the same? Teflon will last longer, however teflon tends to have fibers going through the sheets that can impart a texture to the print. Parchment or kraft paper will tend to produce a smoother finish, though on some materials Teflon can produce a shinier finish. Silicon coated paper is often provided with papers.
One may also ask, what kind of paper is used for sublimation?
It’s better to choose 110-120 gsm. Since the paper is very easy to become damp with high humidity, it will become softer and stiffness is weak at the same time. If low weight paper is used, it will be hard to print smoothly because of the stiffness and hardness go down. At this time, 110-120 gsm is the best choice.
