Has anyone used the sublimation canvas you can get from BMS ? We get asked over and over again if we do canvas but its not something we have done. But, we have now invested in an A£ printer which opens a whole now world for us.

I just wondered what the feedback on these were, and if you sell them, what sore of price do you charge per say, A3 size.

Any feedback is appreciated

I have been looking into this as well. Managed to get some off cuts of Polyester Canvas. Should work well. It's not bought under the sublimation title so might work out cheaper.

I'll let you know how I get on with it.

I have tied the cancas for use in inkjet printers and it was pretty rubbish. It would be great to hear how you get on.

This was forwarded to me, not my print. Speak to Steve (steven@dyesublimationsupplies.co.uk) and he will point you in the right direction on all of this :-)
