Q1: Are there recommended heat press settings?

A1: Please refer to the Quick Reference Chart:


Q2: What is the heat press mat for? Which mat should I use for different tumbler sizes?

A1: The heat press mat helps ensure even heat distribution, and before placing your tumbler into the machine, wrap it securely with the corresponding mat for a snug fit.

  • 4.0 mm Heat Press Mat: 16 oz glass tumbler / 15 oz stainless steel tumbler / 20 oz stainless steel tumbler
  • 2.0 mm Heat Press Mat: 30 oz stainless steel tumbler
  • 2.0 mm Handle Tumbler Heat Press Mat: 40 oz tumbler with handle


Q3: How to achieve the best heat transfer result?

A1: Use the sublimation printer for printing and ensure the printed image is completely dry before transferring;

A2: Trim the printed paper to fit the tumbler—leave about 1 cm extra in width and avoid exceeding the top edge in length;

A3: Ensure the printed design wraps tightly and evenly around the tumbler with no gaps, then secure it firmly with heat-resistant tape.

A4: Wrap the tumbler with the heat press mat, making sure it’s fully covered, and place it into the heat press with the open end facing up;

A5: Avoid directing fans or air conditioning toward the device during heat pressing.
