Good Morning,
I have a request to sublimate aprons. Typically they are natural and I do not know where they are available with a sublimatable finish. Or is there a treatment available I can put on them to accept sublimation. they can be heat transferred but this will not give the finish my customer want.
Any ideas?
Thanks,
Larry

Found this through Google. Don't know if it's really what you need:

Personally I wouldn't want to wear a polyester apron in front of a hot grill or bar-b-q, but for wait staff, bartenders, etc.. they would be fine.

Paramount Services, Inc., owned by "Birthday Boy", Steve Thompson, is a good source for sublimatable fabric items.
