Wow. I've seen photos on cakes. ASDA do a lovely cake for £16. Bring your SD card or cd. Insert it into machine and 10 mins later, voila. The flower tile is brilliant. Are you providing this service then Ray?

have been for a while but the long waiting time has now been sorted with this being done in the uk now

That's spot on that is. Why haven't you gone for a member support account mate? You've got customers on here haven't you? Could make a bit of an article about this and plug it on the forum in the dedicated area's then. PM me if you're interested.

ps - don't do it at the Xmas party if you're printing pictures of staff, you know what happens with the photo copier at xmas parties!

Brilliant Ray, nice to hear that you are taking away business from outside of the UK. Before I became a tiler I worked in IT. My job and 100's of others went to India. This is the first time I have heard that work is coming back to the UK. That alone is a very good USP. I hope you are very busy with this. I will certainly promote your work if ever a customer want's this type of art. Cheers Sean

Very nifty. What sort of ink/printing process is it and is it durable?

 

[Spud]

I have fitted some of the decor tiles and they are durable as a feature wall tile but wouldnt take heavy foot traffic but for every day wall use they are spot on

 

[Rizzle from the Portizzle]

doing some testing on the printed tiles to get a harder surface need to be more resistant to every day products

Cant see how it will stay on the tile. Wont it bleach with sunlight or mark with cleaners or when grouted? They really need to be fired on and thats not an easy process and god i dont want to fire up my kiln any more! Or are those days coming back!

Be good if it stays on as most inkjet printing in spain costs, as bespoke, £80-100 per square metre before mark up and delivery to uk and takes 4 weeks.
