Hi,
Been printing mugs successfully and wanting to expand. Posts here suggested I would be best buying my own flat bed press. So it arrives on Monday (hopefully the right one this time!). A few questions if you would be so good as to give your advice on.
1. For aluminium 'bits' (for BMS key-fobs, Subli cufflinks etc) is it best to do them upside-down (ie paper print face up, metal sub side down, heat coming from above) if so, do you need a sheet of baking paper above to prevent ink going onto the plates? Also, do you need any longer to press or does the metal conduct so well that it works just as good? Trying not to waste too many bits!
2. Subli supplies suggest using an extra strong dble sided tape to fix the subbed bits onto the cufflinks. What tape do others use, I guess it needs to be as thin as possible? Considered superglue but would prefer a bond throughout the 'bit'!
Would be very grateful for any advice,
Thanks,
Neil.
