Love the effect Paul but have my doubts about how many dishwashings it will survive. Hope you prove me wrong though!

Looks interesting but its very time consuming. Is it worth doing?

Looks good, but not sure what I could use it for as it would add quite a bit of money to the final unit cost.

On another point, why is the bottom of your mug faded?

Interesting idea Paul. It does raise the question though of how long 'Santa' will survive.....

Will be good to see how well it lasts.

Tried a TMT Oki transfer about five years ago on the Wow mug as thy produced some transfers for me on some samples we were requested to make. Still got a trial mug that goes through the dishwasher now which has a good print still on the mug. Dishwasher safe seems not to be a problem but the transfer itself was the issue. The excess film of the transfer also ends up on the mug which does start to peel away but only in parts. Cutting around the transfer helped but to far from perfect to use for a run. Close but no cigar.
