Ordered some in for a client so will be trying them out in a few days. Unfortunately I'm a bit far away from you Justin otherwise I would offer.
I source mine from Johnsons Plastics in the USA. Very helpful people. However they are porcelain ornaments not ceramic but can definately be printed both sides. Pressure needs to be right though like...
You can buy daylight colour corrected strip lights from a photographic or graphic arts supplier. Try someone like Marrutts. We used to have them in the lab when we were colour printing so that colour...
I wouldn't bother with preheating. I tend to get the temp stabilised in the oven which usually settles down after about 20minutes and then put the mugs in. You might have to adjust the dial to get it...
The temp I think is borderline. I had a top element go in one oven and although it would reach 200c even with the convection it wouldn't sublimate evenly so I got another oven and it just about...
I use a convection oven and find that its best to leave the thermometer in there whilst the mugs are sublimating. The dials are not accurate but I find that once I have set the temp and leave it for...
Cheers Reg. Thanks for the reply.
Hi Guys, My small worktop oven has blown an element and so I thought I would try a Halogen oven importing it from the US ( I live in the West Indies) There seems to be different sizes of oven so...
I've always found the unisub coasters to be nice and vibrant but you can up the saturation a bit if you take the image into photoshop and give it say 30 points of extra saturation.( Image-Hue&...
Well if the plastic film has been removed I have found that I need to press them at 200 for 60seconds to get a decent result with medium pressure. The ones that I have been using are the BMS ones....
I know this might seem obvious but I have done it. Have you checked to see if the inserts have a protective film over them if so this needs to come off.......
I don't use a vacuum press for these but a clam press and I use a piece of paper underneath and am able to print both sides without bleeding.I do one side then allow to cool then do the other....
You have got an Amari on the Sweetbriar estate or did have a few years ago when I lived in Norfolk.
Have a look here and see if these are the sort you are after. http://www.johnsonplastics.com/2014_sublimation_catalog.html#77_Samsung_Cases/z
Happy Christmas and a prosperous New Year to you all. Best wishes Richard.
Merry Christmas from the Spice Isle. Hope you all have a Fab Christmas and a prosperous new year. Will raise a glass or three to you all at sundowner. Best wishes Richard
Been there a couple of times when we were living in Norfolk. Very interesting visit and a nice bunch of people.
I'd say bluetack also.
Happy Birthday will raise a glass to you at sundowner....... which is now so hope you had a great day.
I have a Workforce 1100 printer, which I think is the USA version of the B1100, and it has been really reliable. However I think, and this is only a personal opinion, that the problem lies with the...
I use Cobra pigmented inks and they are very good. Also Richard offers an icc profiling service on top of the generic ones for the inks that he provides.
In the UK have a look at Permajet and...
No good for sublimation. I used to have one of these at our Pro Lab and its temperature range is not high enough unfortunately. It was used for mounting prints onto various substrates like card,...
Bottle Koozies with their logo etc on that they can give away.
I don't know about the felt pad as I haven't got one to try. Might be worth a try though. So far the way I have been doing it works for me so if it aint broke......They look knockout when they are...
