Q. I would like to transfer photographs, on ceramic plates, by sublimation. Is there any spray available that is suitable for coating the plates to ensure excellent transfer results? If not, what alternative do I have for precoating the plates? Can somebody please help me?

Q. I am frustrated and have had the same problem. I found a product called Monster Coat, that is an air dry sublimation coating you can spray, but it has to be on raw ceramic. All I can find is coated plates. I am frustrated at the sublimation blanks that are available. they are all the same things -- bag tags, mugs, etc. -- they all seem so cheap. It would be really nice to offer customers a little higher quality product. But they are hard to find.
