Shrink Film for Sublimating odd items

Hi,

I searched around but couldn't find anything. I was watching a video of an overseas manufacturer using shrink film and a tunnel oven to sublimate onto "Yeti" like tumblers. I was wondering if the same process could be used with the 3D vacuum heat press? Since it's an irregular shape I thought this could be a good way to do it without a mug wrap?

Any advice would be helpful.

I have seen yeti type drink ware that is all ready for sublimation.
You just need an oven and a wrap for it.

I have also seen (have some for testing) dyesub films that can be added to any flat product that can withstand the temps involved in sublimation.

I'm looking to get into sublimating pints and mugs and came across this product for sublimating large items. https://www.johnsonplastics.com/large-sublimation-shrink-wrap
