Anyone printed these cookie jars before? Just wondering what best to use, I'm assuming a 15oz wrap as a guess, otherwise it will have to be in the oven.

Yes we print them Justin. Got a whole load to do for a client. Basically we use the silver foil shrink wraps so after taping on design we heat shrink the foil and use the oven.

I managed to get the first one done in the oven. I was surprised how well it turned out. I did tape the design all around the edges and it was my first go with the thermo shrink so i'm going to try another one shortly :-)

I 'cooked' for 10 mins but design lost a little definition and blurred slightly so think I'll bring that down a wee bit.

Do you normally get a decent print on these?

The sample we did for the client was good enough to get a larger order. We do them at 200c for 8 mins if that helps.

That reminds me... someone owes me some thermo shrinkwrap I think ;-)

Yes that size worked well, 8 mins same result as 10, slight loss of definition again but overall not too bad at all :-)
