How were the cups printed? Dye sublimation?

Forget the mechanical toys at our age it's a hand job and mine still pristine😄

My one is continually in and out the dish washer and still in excellent condition. Whites are whiter than white and no discolouration. Maybe you're using the wrong detergent or set the wrong temperature. That reminds me, I must wash my hair tonight.

Send me your address Chris I think I can help.

I was lucky enough to win a spare in the raffle.

The original still has pride of place :-)

Mine are in various states of decay due to the Missus turning the dishwasher "up to 11" and then ignoring my pleas to not put the BBWF ones in. The only two that can survive that are the blackpool (2009?) one and the 2011 one, which appear to be fired, as opposed to a plastic decal stuck on.

The rest have been retired to a holding area until I rebuild my car collection display cabinet.

I have had great success suplergluing handles back on and superglue survives dishwashers OK, although that 2014 decal won't.

If anybody has a vector version of the decal, it can easily be reproduced. If a good picture is available, it can be converted for cutting. A picture from a mug would be distorted.

I am sure that I am not the only one that has the equipment to make them.

Sublimation is the better way to do this, but shipping mugs across the pond is too expensive.

Love this forum, I said to myself 'I bet he's got a new one before the end of the day' and I was correct.

[mrzigazaga]
