Hi all can anyone reccommend where to buy good dishwasher proof mugs. We have brought a batch and most need fettling at the bottom and there are alot of imperfections on the mugs.

Thanks

BMS sell them, as do Xpres, Corelgraph etc - where did you get your current mugs from?

I'm new to this, but I got mine from BMS and so far (touch wood) I've not had one dodgy print, dishwasher OR microwave problem... :-)

dishwashers fade everything eventually,mugs i pressed 2 years ago have nearlly gone,but the ones the inlaws have are fine (no dishwasher)
plates that are not sublimated have also faded so you cant really put a gaurentee on your mugs

Mugs we printed in December 2006 are still as vibrant today as the day they were printed. These test mugs are used and washed in a domestic dishwasher and still no deterioration in image quality. That's why we give the dishwasher guarantee on our RN coated mugs.

Stuart, i'd get your mugs from somewhere else, if they are supposed to be dishwasher safe, and you've paid a good money for the blank mugs, they are dishwasher safe - and won't fade.
