just getting started in sublimation... what is the best Blowout paper to use? at present im considering purchasing Butcher paper would i use Brown or White? have heard that brown can stain! or does this depend on what your sublimating on? ideally id just like to have 1 type of blowout paper that i can use on anything if thats possible....

thanks Tony

I just buy a roll of brown packaging paper from eBay it’s cheap as chips and yes I put it under T-shirts and coasters, keyrings and placemats etc.

Never tried chip shop paper but I don’t see why not as long as it’s clean and doesn’t have any additives or coatings.

I have used "chipshop" paper for years. Works a treat and super cheap. Plain white.
