Printing onto Pint Glasses – advice needed please?

[Robert Lambie]

how many are you looking to do and for how long should it last?
if there isn’t many you could just stick cast vinyl on them if its just a plastic cup throw away promo thing.

if its glass etched you could do them properly using "etchall" cream. which etches the longo into the glass surface permanent.

both instances obviously not for high volume. but thought i would mention. 😀

Think he wants about 500.
I guess vinyl could be an option. Thanks for the ideas Rob

there is a film for lasers copiers that will produce water slide decals
Forever do it I think

Get all those off-cuts of vinyl out and turn it into money. 😉

Tims idea would be good too dependant on how intricate the design is.

This topic couldn’t have been better timed, we have some champagne glasses requiring branding, Forever are sending me out a couple of A4 samples of Waterslide to try today. 😀

If you can find a screen printer with a ‘pad print’ set up, that will print onto curved surfaces. If its plastic.

I think for 500 the transfer and etch process would be too long winded, might be a special printing ink for glass though?
