The next steps

With the Ghost Sublime Toner

Print your design

Now you select your motif or even a photo and click on print. Please note that printing must always be mirrored. You can set this in the layout tab of the printer driver. You can also select an ICC profile (if installed) to improve the colors and contrast of your design.

Cutting and adapting

In the next step you should cut the printed sheet so that it fits on the size of your WunderBoard and you can position it perfectly.

Only the printed areas will transfer to you do not need to cut precisely on your image.

Pull off protective foil

The polyester coated WunderBoard is covered with a thin transparent protective foil. Remove the foil before you place your design on the substrate.

Once this is done you can go to the heat press.

Place the motif on the aluminum board

Place the motif as accurately as possible on the aluminium board. You can also use a few strips of heat-resistant tape to make it stay in your preferred position.

Pressing process

Pre heat your transfer press to 200°C before you start. Place the WunderBoard with the design on the lower plate. The backside (non printed side) of your transfer sheet sould face up.

Press the WunderBoard with a medium pressure suitable for 60-90 seconds.

Printing process finished

Immediately peel of the transfer sheet after pressing (hot peel!). Use heat protective gloves as teh alluminum gets very hot.

After the alluminuim board has cooled down, the result is already clearly visible.

The result

You can see your image transferred to the WunderBoard. In most cases the colors are not perfectly vibrant at first.

Please note that Sublime Toner has limits in the color representation of skin tones but is great for most images. Colors can shift

The last steps

To the finished WunderBoard

The finishing touches

When transferring with the Sublime Toner, there is always some residual toner on the surface (toner residue).
To give the motif the right shine, we recommend to remove the remaining toner thoroughly with nail polish remover or other acetone-based products and a cotton wool pad.

The finished result

After these short and simple steps, the WunderBoard is ready and can be used as desired. WunderBoard is great to be used as excellent choice for commercial, fine art, home décor and wall decorations, souvenir boards, and photo showcases.
