Subli Glaze DIY Coatings

Subli Glaze Clear

    Subli Glaze™ Clear Sublimation Coating facilitates the image transfer allowing sublimation inks to bond onto the polymer substrate; without Subli Glaze™ Clear Sublimation Coating the image will not transfer.

    Use it to

    • Provide a polymer layer which sublimation inks can bond to allow effective image transfer.

    How to use Subli Glaze™ Clear Sublimation Coating 400ml

    1. Shake the can well for 1 minute.
    2. Ensure the surface to be coated is clean, dry, and free from grease.
    3. Apply Subli Glaze™ Clear Sublimation Coating smoothly and evenly, holding the can approx. 300mm (12 inches) from surface using light passes at room temperature, use multiple passes for a higher gloss finish but do not allow the spray to pool on the surface.
    4. Allow to air dry for 10 minutes then cure in an oven at 160°C (320°F) for 15-20 minutes.

      Subli Glaze Translucent White

      Subli Glaze™ Translucent White Coating is used when working with clear substrates such as glass or acrylics, where the image needs to be transferred to the back of the substrate, allowing light to pass through it. Subli Glaze™ Translucent White Coating is applied after Subli Glaze™ Clear Sublimation Coating is applied. The image transfers through the white coating so when viewed from the correct side the image has a white background.

      Use it to

      • Provide a translucent white background which the image is transferred through.
      • Allow light to pass through the coating to illuminate the image.

Exposure to ultra violet light (i.e. Sunlight) can over time cause image fade; Subli Glaze UV Protection Coating reduces the effects of UV image fade.

      Use it to

      • Protect transferred images against fading due to prolonged exposure to Ultra Violet light.

      How to use Subli Glaze™ UV Protection Coating 400ml

      1. Shake the can well for 1 minute.
