Re: Clear glass mugs and black text

Does anyone print black text on clear glass mugs?

I'm trying these ones: http://www.longforte.com/clear-glass-mugs

The page says to do 160 deg for 60 seconds but that seems a very short time and they have the same time for their white mugs too, so I thought it was perhaps a typo!

I've tried 180 deg for 180 seconds, which is what I use for white mugs and also 160 degs for 160 seconds but both give brown text instead of black.

I'd be interested to hear suggestions before I waste any more mugs!

Cheers, Mel

Thanks Jay.

They actually look quite good now cooled but I'll give 60 secs a go, although it seems a very short time - are your white ceramic mugs the same, as they are on the website?
