A verdict for each one.
What to expect on this specific product, technique by technique.
This is the key advantage of the Estoril-S: 100% recycled polyester is the ideal substrate for sublimation. The dyes bond chemically to the fiber, allowing photographic graphics, gradients and complex designs with a bright, durable color result, impossible on the cotton models. The graphic can extend across the panels before assembly for an all-over effect.
The structured front in recycled buckram holds embroidery well: flat up to 10×6 cm on the front and raised 3D puff. Recommended start 2 cm from the visor edge. The side areas are generous, up to 10×6 cm, and the back up to 8×3.5 cm. The closure accommodates a small embroidery (3×1 cm). On polyester the embroidery is crisp and stable.
