Useful recommendations for WoWMugs™
Black creates the greatest "surprise" effect and only about 10% of the printed image that will reveal when hot, can be seen when the mug is cold. The Blue mug however allows about 20% of the image to be seen when cold- many customers like this as the effect is teasing the recipient as to what else will show as well as keeping the mug "alive" even when cold.
The print costs are the same for 1, 2, 3 or 4 colour process- take advantage of creating a colourful design all over the mug. Note- if you do not take advantage of colour and leave to much white in your artwork this can appears grey when the mug is cold as it lays under the black coating.
 
Scans:
Low-resolution scans produce poor print. 300 dpi minimum for best results. Ensure scans have no colour cast. The print process will exaggerate the slightest contamination.
