Heat Change Mugs
There are two versions, partial change or full change:
Partial change:
This process allows for part or all of an image to reappear when hot liquid is poured into the mug.
The ink is available in two-colours black and blue and is most effective when applied to the same mug colour as the ink.
The heat change ink is applied by direct screen-printing and can only be applied within the print area of the chosen mug.
Full change:
This process allows the total exterior of the mug to be spray coated with a thermochromic coating that becomes transparent when hot liquid is poured into the mug.
A print can be applied below the coating either by screen-printing or full colour transfer printing.
Dye sublimation prints can also be applied onto this process, however in using this method the print can be perceived if not entirely seen.
