  sublimation printing onto blue

  Posted by Louise Helen on 10 June 2009 at 09:29

  Hi all

  Can anyone tell me can you print onto other colour other that white with
  sublimation printing.

  Have been asked to print on a batch of football Jersey’s for a local special needs center, but they are navy blue and some are red and don’t know if it can be done. Don’t want to say yes and build up there hopes until i know for certain.

  They are supplying the jersey’s that are 100% polyester.

  Thanks for all your help.
  Louise.

  No, cant be done. You need to think about sublimation like four colour process printing, it needs the white background to get the correct colours. You can print on them using sublimation but you will not see too much of the design and the colours will be wrong.

  You can get some results on very light shirts, but your colours will have a tint of the background about them and any white will be the colour of the shirt.
