Tools and Supplies to Make it:
- Sawgrass SG500 or SG1000 Printer
- Sawgrass VersiFlex Inks
- VersiFlex Light Paper
- Flat Heat Press
- Canvas Fabric
How to Make It:
- For this project, we are using canvas fabric we purchased at a local craft store
- In the Sawgrass Print Utility, we chose Natural Fabrics for the product.
- We printed this on 11″x17″ VersiFlex Light paper.
How to Press It:
- Turn on your press on and set the temperature to 375F (191C) degrees
- If you see any dust, lint roll your print area to make sure your surface is clean.
- Place your fabric on the press and line the paper up on top as you place it on the product.
- Cover with blow out paper.
- Press the fabric for 30 seconds at VERY HIGH pressure.
- When finished, remove the fabric from the press and peel the paper off as quickly as possible.
Tips & Tricks:
- Canvas Prints are a great way to display photos or artwork. They can be finished by stretching the canvas or by adding them to a frame with or without the glass!
- Peeling the VersiFlex Light paper off of a product does have a different feel. It does need to be a hot peel. While there is definitely a pulling feel to it, if it is too difficult to pull, increase your pressure or temperature.
