Well, he aint gonna be right this time! How you going to print onto a black surface? :redface: The panel mugs are the only real option and can look good if printed properly, the panel is hidden but you need to be careful not to overlap too far.

Justin I have a sneaking suspicion he wants something in red only. I could print black and red to fill the panel but not too sure of getting a solid dense black to look right.

If you're looking for red on black then this is going to be screen printing, but on a small number of mugs the price is going to be quite high.

Martin, will you be getting the mugs back in stock soon? Just got a new customer wanting to look at a sample black mug.

Unlikely to have any soon. These are v e r y slow movers given most want to match the black of the mug with the black of a print to disguise the white panel and that's not always going to be the case.
