I'm new here - Help! ST-210 Double mug press.... bone china mugs?

[SamBee]

Hello everyone!

Firstly, let me introduce myself I'm Sammy and just started my business opening a personalised e-commerce gift shop. I have worked with various heat presses at another company for the past couple of years, so I have some knowledge on what I'm looking for.

I'm looking into buying the ST-210 Double mug heat press which I know will be good for especially the 11oz ceramic mugs, however, I'm wanting to also print on bone china mugs... Would this mug press allow me to do this? And if so, would there be anything I would need to buy extra to help with the printing method?
If this machine is not good for printing on ceramic and china, can anyone recommend the best heat press for me?

Also, if there is any other advice or tips you can give on the best printing process, it would be highly recommended!

Thanks in advance and I look forward to hearing from you!

Sammy

Any mug with a sublimation coating will be fine Just type sublimation bone china mug in google and you'll find plenty.

Only done a couple of china over the years. I used a silicone insert to 'pad' out as they're diameter is less than my usual mugs. You would then need to increase the time to allow for this. Same procedure as with metal water bottles.

Only issue I really had was my chain mugs had a lip at the top which had to be worked around.
