Hi, dont want to get into "you cannot sublimate on 100% cotton" thread (I think after reading many old threads we should be pretty clear on that) but would like to know if somebody has sample of the vintage look that gives a 50/50 blend and other blends.

And how good is the washability or how bad will it shift, change, blur, erase, etc. over time

Pictures are highly appreciated.

Thanks

I have done 5050 with sublimation and it gives a faded look after the first wash. After that it holds. I have several shirts that are 5 years old with sublimation on 5050.

I made a 65/35 polycotton and came out nice but after the second wash some of the color bleeded and ended up painting other parts of the white Tshirt. Probably was because I washed it picture on the outside.

What temp, press and time do you use?
I did 385, light-med and 30 secs.
