Hi....I ma quite worried about doing a sublimation print on a garment which is 85% cotton and 15% polyester jersey.Can anyone help me what would be the result and is it advisable to proceed......?

Dye sublimation doesn't work on cotton. Sublimation inks will not bond to cotton fibres. Only 15% percent of your image will transfer onto the garment - on the polyester part of it.

The higher content of polyester - the better print you will get: so 100% poly - 100% of the image transferred onto the garment, if you have 65/35% poly/cotton blend it means 35% of the vibrancy will be lost, resulting in a "vintage"/"distressed" look.

Will dye sublimation work on 100% Polyester Fleece?

Yes it will....but you have to watch fleece because some of the garments have a cotton shell on the outside.

Hope this helps.
