What are the different ink types for heat press, their difference and use?
There are two inks used – pigment and dye sublimation inks. Transfers can be heat pressed onto fabrics using pigment inks. Pigment inks are adhered and embedded to the surface of the material. For substrates with hard surfaces like mugs, coated bottles, mousepads, coasters, puzzles, ceramics and polyester type cloths require sublimation inks. Sublimation inks permeate the coating of the material. Please note that pigment and dye sublimation inks use different paper types..
