hi i already do mug printing and have decided to give t-shirt printing a go i was just wondering what i would need & if there is some where i can get the products from cheap. as i am only looking on ebay and that does not leave much for profit
thanks for any help

If you're already sublimating, get a heat press and use sub t shirts. If you're on a tight budget then it'll definitely be ebay as good quality (named) heat presses are an arm and a leg!

ok thanks can i use any type of cotton tops or does it have to state sublimation tops

Subimation garments aren't cotton. The inks won't bond with cotton and will look very faded.

Wherever you source your blank t-shirts from (whether a specific sublimation supplier or your local Primark) they will need to be polyester, and not cotton.

Basics of sublimation - you can only sublimate onto polyester or a high content of polyester.

thanks for your help can i use the same paper of my mug printing for t-shirt printin

Yes you can but some papers offer a higher release which will give your colours more depth - not sure of the name of the best paper

thanks for your help m8
