Can I use these for sublimation?

Just what do you mean by "sblimation"? It can mean various things. If it is for printing I'd say no. I do zentangles on them and it is fine for that with a coating.

Hi... I think I can help out here, at least as far as defining "sublimation". (Whether these will work with this process or not, I can't say, since I just happened to run across the info while looking for something else. This isn't my type of artwork, though, so besides the definition, I'm as clueless as everyone else!) So... Sublimation: Sublimation is a way to create bright, permanent, professional looking image transfers using your own artwork or photography. No plastic feel, no fading when washed. No other image transfer technology to date can claim this except for printing directly on to fabrics with fabric dyes. The science behind sublimation is simple: when heated to high temperatures, sublimation ink turns into a gas, allowing it to enter into the open pores of the polyester-coated item. Once removed from the heat, the pores of the item cool and close up, trapping the ink inside of the item. The sublimated image will be soft and smooth to the touch and is a permanent application. No bleeding or fading when you wash it! Sublimation works specifically with polymer-coated substrates or light-colored, 100% polyester garments. You also have to use a printer that can be loaded with the special sublimation inks, and the special sublimation paper. A good heat press does the transfer. Irons and steam presses do not get hot enough or apply enough pressure. (This information is directly from Dharma Trading Company, http://www.dharmatrading.com/ ) I hope it helps! Rory

Yes but not able to suck air out. You would lose some shelflife on product.

These are particulate ONLY so as long as you're not creating vapors from a heat gun on the lead paint, I would think they would be OK. I would use it if I were just scraping or sanding but to be more safe and comply with OSHA, you'd likely have to use one of the VAPOR cartridges.

I dont see why you couldnt. Just make sure to seal them against the wall or niche with silicone so water does not get behind them and cause mold or damage

Yes, you can use these. They are of a similar mould of the containers that come with the pump originally.

You need to have a Sublimation Printer with Special Inks and also you need to purchase paper that is designed for Sublimation. We own a Ricoh printer 3100. We purchased the Printer, Inks and Paper from Coastal Business for $550. You can also get them from JDS Industries. The mugs will cost you about $1.25 each and you can sell them for about $9.99 The paper will cost you about $26.00 for 100 sheets and the inks are $60 to $80 each, CMYK. Hope this helps

Yes if Sublimation ink is used. I use sublimation ciss ink system works great.

I ultimately just tossed mine in the garbage for similar reasons. The machine is pretty much a piece of junk - good as a starter to see if sublimation is what you want to do, but not good for much else.

I do not think so. They are vented for antifogging so chemical fumes and gases will come in.

No, they cannot be used. I researched other sites who seem to support this. Sorry.

I can't answer that question. I've never used them for that. But in my opinion I think you could. I hope this will help. sorry for the wishy washy reply. David

Yes the sublimation Ink can be used for mugs. There is "mug" size paper - but you can use any sublimation paper. You can cut it after printing (to the height of the mug), and make sure you size your picture to the correct mug circumference (handle to handle - not entire circumference).

I don't see why not, it's bulk ink you put in the cartridges yourself, it's for sublimation and not normal printing.

Possibly. It depends on the chemistry of the sublimation ink. Generally, sublimation implies low temperature, high volatility. How would this ink be stored in the ink cartridges? If it requires high pressure, then it would quite likely not be compatible with the print heads. Otherwise, you have corrosive properties to consider.

Yes you could. However you would need ALOT of them depending on the moist levels you are talking about.

yes you can but please note that they are very small not what I thought they would be. make sure this is the size you want. I never even used mine because I haven't had anything real small to make yet. but one day I will I am sure.

Yes, but don't pour hot water directly into them. Fill them with cool tap water, then heat in a microwave oven to minimize the risk of cracking due to sudden thermal expansion. The same goes for cooling... Wash them only after they have cooled, and don't wash in hot water when they are cold. (I learned all this the hard way.)
