After pressing remove paper immediately.
The way that sublimation works is the ink on the sublimation paper when heated to a high temperature turns into a gas. Then the pores on the product open up and allow that gas to enter. Then when the temperature is brought down, the pores close up and the ink is trapped inside. Thus, the image is actually a part of the surface. Meaning it can not be scratched, washed, or peeled off.
Sublimation remains one of the most durable forms of printing on hard surfaces, above transfers and laser methods.
Please note that times and temperatures will vary from press to press.
