Sublimation render too pale

Hello,
I printed a design on sublimation paper using sublimation ink, and the result when I print it is very good. I then apply the design onto a pot treated with polyester varnish, which I then put in a conventional oven (at 200º for 30 minutes) because I don't have a press for large cylindrical objects. The transfer result is not good; the design is much too pale. Does anyone have a solution?

In my opinion, the problem is the pressure...
For the sublimation transfer to occur properly, a sufficiently high pressure is required. The machines designed for coffee mugs are equipped with a screw and quick-lock tightening system.
The heat must pass through the transfer towards the substrate (which is colder). If you heat everything up, it won't work.
