1. Choose your art (Picture, text, graphic, logo, etc)
2. Print your graphic using vision sublimation printing Paper
3. Cut the extra part with a scissor.
4. Use a second sheet to apply the polymer to your transfer with a heat press machine
5. Position your hat and graphic under a heat press
6. Heat press for about 30 secs (may vary depending on hat materials)
7. Cover your hat with a flexible finishing sheet and give a final press for 30 seconds
8. After the pressing process finished,peel the sublimation paper

All in all, this 5–10-minute method is faster than embroidering and heat transfer vinyl, without the need to weed or cut every color of vinyl. It makes the hats a clean finished appearance and ultimately does not feel like a finished product.
