FAQs About Mug Sublimation
What kind of mugs do I need?
You must use mugs with a special polymer coating designed for sublimation. Regular mugs will not work.
Do I need a special printer?
Yes, you need a printer converted to use sublimation ink or a dedicated sublimation printer.
Is it difficult to learn?
No! The learning curve is minimal. After one or two test runs, most users achieve excellent results.
How durable are the designs?
Incredibly durable. The sublimation process dyes the polymer coating itself. The design becomes scratch-resistant, dishwasher-safe, and will not fade under normal use.
