Re: Faded mug bottoms

<t>Lisa, I would be interested in a sample mug if the offer is there? I was looking on your site last night and the short list is between yours and Xpres as recommend by UK printed Mugs, very much the same in terms of price.<br/>
<br/>
Could explain the difference between the A grade & AAA grade?<br ...

Re: Faded mug bottoms

<r>Ok cheers Buddy, don't think its the wraps as they are brand new, Im very careful when taking the mugs out of the oven and only lift them out by the handle. <br/>
<br/>

Re: Faded mug bottoms

Re: Mini heat press

Im not looking to replace the hotronix, just want to add a small press to use along side it for small work.

Im pretty hardy when it comes to knocking bits up, but the stahls has a slide in pin fitment, that would be hard to make without some proper metal working tools.

Re: Mini heat press

<br/>
Just looking for a better way for doing smaller bits such as ...

Re: Dye sub on dark green

<r>Thanks mate, I did try a few sheets and it didn't really work for what I need it to <E>:)</E> The print was good, and it contour cut well, but my images was block text in multi colour so each letter was cut around, so it wasn't a case of simply peeling the back off and pressing, it would of ment ...
