Steps:

1. Print out your graphic using your sublimation printer.

2. Clean the dog bowl off with surface cleaner to get rid of any excess dust.

3. Trim the graphic if needed and secure it around the dog bowl using heat tape.

4. Secure the wrap around the dog bowl with the sticker facing the inside of the bowl. You will know it’s secured once you hear a click.

Note: It may take a few times to secure the wrap around the bowl. Be sure that the wrap is covering all sides of the bowl before setting it into the oven.

5. Place the dog bowl in the oven at 400 degrees Fahrenheit for 15 minutes.

6. Once the timer is done, carefully remove the dog bowl out of the oven using heat-resistant gloves.

7. Remove the wrap from the dog bowl and rip the transfer off!
