Morning all,
I'm looking to have a play with sublimating mugs via oven and wondered if anybody had any recommendations regarding mug wraps.
I'm a bit dubious about some of the cheap quick release wraps on ebay so I had a look around and found these adjustable ones at Transfer Press.
https://www.thetransferpress.co.uk/wraps-c2x17259749
Does anyone here use them or have recommendations in that area?

Also, if I'm using an oven that has a fan option, should I use it with or without?

Thanks

We imported 72 of the blue wraps from China and they're very good. Much cheaper as well. I had a go at making one similar to the one in your link, with a bit of practice and the right adhesive it's not difficult.

Were those the Best Sub blue wraps? They're very pricey.

So the bog standard green wraps, not blue!

So Justin, following your recommendation the wraps are ordered along with a thermometer...
Using XP5013 mugs in an electric oven, how long would you recommend time-wise and should the oven fan be on or off? - I'll be using a sg400.
Just seen your location too...bit jealous now. Hoping to relocate to that neck of the woods in the next year or 3
