Printing on bottom of mugs

[viccar]

I have seen those as well,
i did wonder if they were vinyl (seen glasses with vinyl on) but it does say they are printed.

Just tried on a swing away flat bed heat press - there doesn't seem to be any sublimation coating whatsoever on the bottom of BMS mugs as there wasn't even a faint print left after 190/190 with 2 sheets of silicon. Maybe Martin can confirm whether there is a coating on the bottom of the mugs or not.

There may be over spray but they aren't specifically coated. There were a couple of members here that did the solvent stickers from memory, but this may help:

I can offer eco solvent ink printed decals/stickers (call them what you will) on clear or white vinyl to forum members if it helps. Full colour printed on a Versacamm.

I think those could be done with a pad printer.

As Gorgall says probably with a pad printer

[James990]

Sorry for my ignorance, but what is a pad printer, please? Where does one get one from, and how much are they?

James, just google pad printing, and you will find thousands of entries, close to the top will be you tube videos explaining the process, and further down equipment sellers, but its not something cheap as such - but google and you will find
