Uniform heat distribution is non-negotiable for leather; a standard home iron has hot spots that will scorch the faux material before the sublimation gas even transfers. This unit holds fixed temperatures better than cheaper knock-offs, which prevents the material from warping under heat.
⚠ Worth knowing: Sublimation only works on high-polyester content; if you try to use these sheets with standard cotton-based faux leather, the ink will wash off or smudge instantly. Also, the StrongGrip mat is mandatory because the backing on leather sheets will slide and ruin your motor calibration if it's not pinned down tight.
