  1. Can you share your sublimation related horror story ?

  2. SUBLIMATION MUG PROBLEM ! WTF IS THIS??? MUG CHICKEN POX

    I started my business with sublimation and has been a pain in the ass. I don't think there was excessive ink because other times mugs come out perfect, with the same printing parameters that I used with this mug. I cool the mugs with a fan.
  3. SUBLIMATION MUG PROBLEM ! WTF IS THIS??? MUG CHICKEN POX

    195ºC - 9 Minutes and air cooled. A german once told me that when submerged in water the mug develops micro-cracks and thus reduces durability and becomes more fragile so from that day on I cool my mugs with a fan.

  8. Need Help Latex or solvent ink for outdoor use? Which is better?

    Well, true solvents inks will outlast Latex, but the problem is that have very toxic fumes (HAP'S). Latex has very good quality and durability, aprox. up to 3 years outdoor with no lamination. Eco-solvent inks have pretty much the same durability. It also depends what are you planning to do with...

  11. Equipment Leases

    Well, I think it is not as simple as that. I think of these variables when I'm going to rent, lease of buy something: tax, cashflow, opportunity cost and how much time I am going to spend working with the machine.
