PLEASE NOTE THE FOLLOWING:
★★Sublimation★★
★For Sublimation transfers, the ink is all that will transfer so any areas in white will NOT be white. The shirt/blank you are pressing onto will show in the areas of the pattern that have white.
★Sublimation patterns will be mirrored and require a heat press to transfer. The time and temp settings are 385 for 45-60 minutes for apparel and times vary depending on the blank for other substrates.
★Sublimation transfers will only work if the substrate you are applying them to have a high polyester content or a coating that is able to accept the ink. We recommend at least 65% polyester content for apparel.
★Sublimation transfers come in either 11×11 inch or 11×22 inch
★★Vinyl (Adhesive/Heat Transfer)★★
★Vinyl is printed on a white material so white areas will be part of the final product.
★Choose ADHESIVE if you want to use the vinyl to make decals.
★Choose HEAT TRANSFER if you want to use the vinyl to apply designs to apparel or other fabric.
★★Faux Leather★★
★All faux leather sheets will have the same scale as the 6×12 size.
★A 6×12 sheet in faux leather and vinyl will be the same scale.
★A 12×12 or 12×24 in faux leather will be scaled to the same scale as a 6×12 which is a smaller scale compared to vinyl sheets of the same size.
★Please refer to the last picture for reference on how faux leather will be scaled compared to other products.

★★Important Notes★★
★When working with printed adhesive vinyl, we recommend bumping up your settings just slightly since the printed vinyl is a tiny bit thicker than standard vinyl and also reverse weeding. Our tutorial on how to reverse weed can be found on our tutorial page (http://howto.smashinginkvinyl.com).
★Printed heat transfer vinyl is thinner and is cut normally like 651 and NOT mirrored. The carrier sheet is separate than the vinyl sheet because of the printing process.
★We include one carrier sheet for every three sheets of heat transfer vinyl that is ordered.
★For a step by step tutorial on using Printed HTV, please visit http://howto.smashinginkvinyl.com.
★We are not responsible for issues with equipment, settings, or other errors. There are many factors that can affect how your machine cuts so we always recommend making a test cut.
★Screen colors and print colors may vary because of screen and monitor settings.
★Colors may also vary from batch to batch and material type since sheets are printed as they are ordered in small batches and different material finishes may affect the look of the sheet.
★Patterns printed on a 6×6 or 6×12 sheet will be proportionally smaller than our larger sheets. See example photo to see scale comparison between different sizes.
★6×12 and 12×24 sheets will have two copies of the pattern repeating. Please refer to the listing photos for examples of how patterns will look at each size option. The pattern will be seamless if possible, but some designs may have the 2nd copy of the design mirrored to blend the pattern at the seam.
★Any patterns described as glitter, metallic, hologram, holographic, or any other texture is based on the look of the pattern and the material will not actually have these textures or finishes. Please note that these types of designs are PRINTED to achieve these effects and do not actually have these finishes or textures.
★Pattern is printed on the non-adhesive side only. The adhesive side is GREY or WHITE. This product will NOT work for projects where the adhesive side faces out since this side of the vinyl is not printed.
★Each sheet has a .25 to .50 inch label which includes the Pattern SKU, Type of Vinyl, our Website, and Tutorial Website. This label is added to the sheet size you order. For example, a 12×12 sheet would actually measure 12.25×12 with the label.
★Sheets are cut by hand or machine and may vary in size by +/- 1/2 inch. Some sheets may have a small extra white boarder because of the cutting process.
