Just one more question before I print on them - do I need to submerse them in cold water (like the cermaiic mugs) as soon as they are removed from the heat press?

Thanks everyone for your very helpful comments on this subject.
Yes I would do. Make sure you remove the plastic top before pressing though.

You can do Barry. However, you may find that the transfer paper sticks a little bit, in which case you be washing them with soapy water regardless!

The travel mugs printed up a treat with the red logo for mu customer!

However, when pressing for 180secs (as per BMS website) the paper was very scorched but the image was OK. I pressed the next ones for 70-80 seconds and were much better.

Martin - would you agree that the website recommendation should be changed? I also found a video on (very useful site) www.Conde.com. They pressed the same travel mug for 60secs
