Times & Temps

Using the MakerFlo Sublimation Oven

Prep Apply your design securely with heat tape, no need for shrink wrap!

Bake 375 °F for 5-6 minutes. If laying tumblers in oven horizontally, rotate 180° halfway through baking, at about 3 minutes.

Use the temps & times above as a starting point and adjust as necessary, as local environments may affect bake times and temps.

Always follow the manufacturer’s instructions for your oven and sublimation blanks for setting the temperature and timer.

Using the MakerFlo Automatic Tumbler Press

Directions for use 

  • For MakerFlo tumblers we recommend 355F for 60 seconds, then turn 180 degrees & press again for another 60 seconds
  • Our Tumbler Press fits the following MakerFlo tumbler sizes 12oz Sippy to 30oz Thick -- our 32oz Hydro Bottle and 40oz Sublimation Tumblers will not fit in this press
  • See user manual for time & temp guidance for ceramic mugs, glassware and other surfaces

Product tips

  • Heats to 350F in 3 minutes
  • Follow temperature, time and pressure guidelines from your product supplier
  • Test tumblers before final project
  • Handle with care and use a heat glove 
  • Practice makes perfect!

How sublimation works

The coating we apply to our sublimation tumblers absorbs sublimation ink when pressed or baked onto the tumbler using heat. The sublimation process creates a vibrant, pristine and completely smooth design on the tumbler or surface, unlike a decal, which may leave ridges around the ink.

"Provided a nice amount and love to be able to make my own design too."

Very cute but. .

"I gave a 4 because this product doesn’t come with shink wrap. Other than that the product is great"

— Ashley L. (4/5)

Nice pencil

"Let me start by saying this subs very nicely. I really like that it’s very heavy and a nice addition to pens . My only issue this came with no suggestion heat time/temp do I followed- so I did some guessing. Second it did not come with any shrink wrap - which you need. Because the barrel is longer than most pens- I had to use 1 1/2 pen shrink wraps- so make sure you have plenty. BTW- I had to purchase pen shrink wrap elsewhere."

— Karen H. (4/5)

Love Mechanical Pencil

"Sublimation worked perfectly. Weight of pencil has just enough heft."

— Winnie B. (5/5)
