Hi Ivansmagic

Never had that and mine have run about 300 each so far.


WE-PRINT

I now find that the best thing to do is when you are finished printing, leave the wraps in the oven while it is all cooling down. I also leave them in when starting up as well. I have found that the wraps are then clean enough to use.

Hi Socialgiraffe

Thank you for sharing instructions about how to clean the mug wraps. But I'm wondering if you can advise me also how to clean the silicon sheet tray?

Hi ScoialGiraffe - I'm interested to know how long you leave 12 mugs in the large 3D machine for? As well as the temperature? Also I have read through this thread and a number of people are saying to use the vacuum too... Is this something you have done.

The reason I ask is a client wanted full colour leopard style print and a number of mugs were coming out faded. at the top or bottom or both
The time I used was 15 minutes on 190c with no vacuum no silver tray on the bottom either. Any advice would be appreciated, thanks.

I found the cheap ones I bought on Amazon tore after one use, but ones that came with my ST3042 are still going strong, so you gets what you pays for I guess!!
