Wrist Bands

Nice link, thanks. Work out quite expensive if only after a few hundred.

So is screen/pad printing the only way to do them, I must finish my flat bed UV printer........ some time. Got a pad printer but it lives under the roland (that's where it's been since I bought it)

Yes, bands like this are are made from silicon which requires a very specialist ink to print on. A lot of inks will adhere, but after a week or so it vanishes. The proper ink sometimes requires the item to be flamed before printing as well. To be honest, when I had the contract from a UK supplier to print 4-5k a month it was a pain in the neck. China does them cheaper and because the weight is virtually nothing it can be delivered within 3-4 days.

I will also point out that we are going back a few years now. UV and screen inks have certainly moved on since I last used any so the comments above could be old news....
