Re: vintage metal looking signs

Hi, looking to source vintage metal signs, that look rustic at the edges for sublimation? They look more like tin rather than aluminium. I have also seen this style in small magnet signs. Sorry for being vague, . Any suggestions?

Re: what did i do wrong?????

<r>Hi Justin, thanks for your reply. No I'm using a mug press with an 11oz blanket. The mugs are from coralgraph and the paper is a good quality one. Would I have been better putting two in at a time? I pressed them in the middle of the press directly in front of the clamp. Any suggestions out there ...

Re: what did i do wrong?????

Thought I would print these coffee cups for myself. Sublimated 180 degrees for 180 seconds. The edges have printed ok but the middle was faded. I used an 11oz mug wrap maybe I should have put two mugs in together. I thought the pressure was ok. Disappointed I hate imperfection!!!!!

Re: BMS Mug Press

Thanks for all your responses. The print out was a test to check size and colour. I did change the colour of the writing before reversing the image before printing for sublimation. The printer is an Epsom ICC compatible. I will look at temperature and heat press time. Again many thanks to all to ...

Re: shabby chic signs

Is it possible to sublimate onto normal wood/plywood that is not polymer coated? Or any ideas where I can get shabby chic sublimated blanks?
