New to the sublimation world.

I tried to search the forums for an answer to my question but was unable to find anything. Forgive me if it's silly.

I've got some silicone pint glasses from Silipint; https://silipint.com/collections/cups/p ... 3565808789

Is it possible to dye sublimate onto these? Or is the surface inadequate to accept the process?

I had intended on using a silicone wrap, heat tape, a sublimation transfer print, and an oven.

Somehow, I'm thinking this won't work.

Please advise.

Thanks in advance.

The glasses would need to contain polyester, or at least have a polyester coating in order to accept sublimation. They would also need to be able to withstand temperatures of around 200°C or more without melting or warping.

I see the Silipint company screen print their designs rather tha use sublimation ...
