i would like to ask you all what is your experiment or idea about instead of using white ink over a sublimated base grafik, use white pigment in the epoxy, anyone had tryed or know some post about it, because my eyes heart searching so much...
best regards

By this do you mean......
Sublimate the base with the graphic without a background, then lay up with pigment in the epoxy to give the background?
If this is the case then yes, I have tought about this too. Ive been looking at sublimation ink cartridges for inkjet printers. Print on iron-on paper, then heat press it. Of course being an inkjet printer the graphic would be either small, or made of more sheets.
I cant recall any threads, but did have some links to sublimation info (just have to find them at the moment)

This is my results
Its so cold hear that the ink still sticky
the main problem with sublimation is that the base warp alot and i just press with 130ºC for 30min lololol alot of time
the second was pressed 120ºC for 30 min
Another question about nazdar inks, i have some samples to experiment and i received ink/ctalyst/dyluent and i had read that the mxture is 4:1 right? but the ink is so viscous,is very hard to spread, need to eat a cow lolo, that is need add some dyluent to make more fluid or the dyluent is just to clean the screen??
i think ill go fo silkscreen metod to made the white coat...
