Hi

I've never done the dunking thing before with mugs.

Now I've switched to a press from the mug oven I thought I start doing it as it seems the generally recommended method.

Is it better to peel the paper then dunk or dunk then peel?

Thanks

Mark

Works both ways but I find it less messy peeling first, just watch your finger tips!

Thanks, that's what I've been doing.
Thought dunking then peeling may stop the subli process a bit quicker is all.

I'm pretty adept at avoiding the burnt finger syndrome :)

I dunk then peel as it cools the mug off enough to get the paper off without burning my fingers.

i never thought about it before
i used to peel and let cool naturally
but after a previous post about it i now peel and dunk but am very careful of burnt fingers
i'll have to try dunk and peel next time i do a mug

haha dunk and peel sounds like a quick TV dinner lol

used to dunk but dont bother anymore. They dont take long to cool and its one less job of wiping dry..

Peel and then cool with fan - don't know what you southern softies are all on about, burnt fingers indeed.:cool:

Rarely do we get designs we need to dunk or cool. It tends to be bold colours on a lot of white if any issue does occur.

Peel and then cool with a fan (from the south your southern softies all look north to me.)
