Comparing Full-Wrap Waterslides with Sublimation, Same Graphics

  • Awhile back, I did a sublimation tumbler video ( • New Sublimation Tumble... ) in which I used two f-bomb full-cup graphics purchased from an Etsy artist (link below) to wrap two 20-oz skinny tumblers. I asked in that video if folks wanted to see me use the same two graphics but with full-cup wrap waterslides instead. And the answer was definitely Yes. So here -- by request -- is that full-cup waterslide, f-bomb artwork tumbler video. The waterslide gods snickered a lot during this one.

    I love Swirls! Mostly swirls of color, but really any swirls at all - I think they add a beauty and grace to everything. So after I started making soap a few years ago, and needing some sort of biz name that didn't sound like everyone else's version of suds-r-us, I decided on Luxinda Swirl. Luxinda is a twist on my real name, and I quickly started putting swirls of color in all of my handmade soaps.
    Now I'm branching out a bit, and I want to keep adding swirls to everything I do!

    These methods are definitely comparable, so if sublimation isn’t an option, definitely consider a full-wrap waterslide. ✨😁✨

    Just this morning, I was doing the full wrap waterslide method. However, I did mine on a tapered tumbler. Ugh! I agree, the colors on the waterslide are more vivid. The sparkle on the black one really shows wonderfully. But I didn't see the sparkle on the white, until it got around to the letters. I have come to the realization, the seams showing, are inevitable. I'm over that. Lol Thanks for the comparison.🙂💜☃️

    • @Luxinda
      @Luxinda  Před 2 lety +1

      Thanks!! Yeah, the Rainbow alcohol ink is a shifting sparkle, so it really shows up best on dark backgrounds, especially out in the sunshine. On a white background, it can’t compete with the sun. It’s much more obvious on light backgrounds when looked at indoors ✨😁

    Yes!! Thank you for doing this comparison. I knew I didn't need to invest in a sublimation setup. Thank you, thank you, thank you! You just saved me a bunch of money baby!! I do have one question... If you buy a graphic that was slated for sublimation, will it look as good on a waterslide? Creative Fabrica has sublimation graphics, can I still use them with the waterslides and will they come out as good (like this comparison)? I hope that question came out without sounding like an idiot. Hahaha❤️🧡💛💚💙💜🌈🌠

    • @Luxinda

      Thank you! Happy to help folks save a few pennies 😁 Yes, in fact, the graphics I used in this video were specifically listed as for sublimation, as was the Frank N Furter graphic and most of the other graphics I use in my videos - they work on printable vinyl, waterslide, and obviously also on sublimation. So definitely don't rule out any graphic listed specifically for sublimation.

      Thank you!! This Hiipoo paper (and also the Sunnyscopa - both on Amazon) hold up pretty well, especially when sealed with 2 layers of clear spray and then a final layer of the Plastidip Glossifier spray. I still manage to tear them sometimes, but they hold up pretty well.

      Thank you!! 😁 I’ve come to view seams as somewhat inevitable on full-wrap cups, so … 🤷‍♀️
      I don’t think most people are bothered by them as much as we tumbler makers are since we’re always trying for perfection.

      The waterslide version can absolutely be wrapped around a white glitter tumbler, no problem, so there'd be lots of sparkle. But since this video was comparing waterslide with sublimation, I kept the base cup for both the same plain white 😊 Thanks for your comment!!

      In a previous video (here: czcams.com/video/AVsVwcyaSlA/video.html) I did the sublimated version of this graphic. In this video I do a full-wrap waterslide of the same graphic onto a white spray-painted cup. The point was to see which method works better since not everyone is set up to do sublimation.

      Sure, I use Inkscape, which is a free program. It's kind of intimidating at first (at least it was for me), but Corinne Blackstone on YT has many excellent videos on using Inkscape to size and print graphics for sublimation, and the same would be true of printing waterslides.

      Thank you!! The waterslide paper I use is clear, but I do know that white waterslide paper is available. However, I've never used it, and I've heard only complaints from people who have. So that's why I've stayed away in general. It's too bad, because it would solve the problem of needing a light background...
