    Sublimation mouse mats

    Is the quality of most sublimation mouse mats much the same or are there brands/suppliers better than others? I'm currently considering these ones from Listawood:

    Also, is it worth going for the faux leather stitch versions (example: https://tinyurl.com/y7mzefkx)? Is there a potential pressing/sublimation issue with the stitching area?

    We only use the thicker 6mm ones from Xpres. Faux leather ones not always great as sometimes get problems around stitching and require heavy weightson them after pressing which is a pain.

    How white are the Xpres ones? I have started running a few test mouse mats and they print well, but the blank itself (from Coralgraph) is very much an 'off-white' it's almost grey. I'd really like to find a good quality white one. Thanks.

    The Xpres mats are pretty white! Tried a batch already. Really good, but don't forget to pre-press them at high pressure for about 15-20 secs to make the edges neater.

    Hi
    Has anyone found any decent mouse mats recently?
    I've had x5 samples sent to me and they were great quality, even the edges were smooth!
    When I ordered a load, they are not so good, very rough edges. (crap basically)
    I refuse to use them.
    Are all mouse mats the same with rough edges?
    Any help would be great.
    Thanks
