ok so seems a daft question here ...been asked if i could do a shower curtain ..looked around and some of them are actually made of polyester ...obviously i wouldnt be able to print and press any bigger than my eqipment but i could do a few choice ...smaller designs onto it.
has anybody ever tried a shower curtain ? and what were the results?

Yep, done one as a trial about 6 months ago. Bought a cheap white based polyester one from B&Q and it printed well. Takes full colour quite easily and holds on the materila as you would hope in it being polyester. Just print it like a sunshade time and temp.

I picked up quite a few items to print on and you would be surprised what can work, especially if you coat some items yourself.

thanks andrew ...i thought it was just me that got asked for odd items... lol
gonna go try that this weekend ....
the customer decided on 6 or 7 a4 sized prints along the bottom edge ... ..should look good

would be interested to hear what other oddities people have printed to .... lol
THE ODDEST one ive seen so far is the toilet seat covers... lol

I was just about to mention a toilet seat....... When I did my little scouting trip around BQ I was tempted to buy one of the white wooden seats that have the plasticish coating. Didn't won't to waste £25 at the time though. I got a print on the plastic window sill material but put too much heat into it and distorted slightly. It's a form of frp just not as dense as what you buy for sublimation. When testing things just use a silicon sheet either side so you don't melt anything onto a part of the machine that matters.

a window sill beats anything i'd even thought about .....lol
