They are LaserTile and can be found here.

Works out at about 2-bucks per 4" tile when you include shipping.

The other way is to use low cost normal tiles and paint fill but I am too lazy for that so I use lasertiles.

Thank's for the info dave. I´m not sure if this material is avaible in Portugal, but i will find out.

[John Noell]

They will ship overseas but it is expensive (heavy).

[Miguel Pinho]

Thank's john. I've already found a supplier here in Portugal. They call it here marmotech white.

How about Cermark for ceramic and glass. It is available in black, blue, red, green, and yellow.

Just to cover the bases on tile, there is also Color Sublimation Tile done with special tile, ink and a heat press. Also Color Laser Toner Transfer Tile, done with normal tile, special paper and a Color Laser Paper Printer and Heat Press.

Just some other options to look at.

Another forum EngravingEct is another great resource for Sublimation and CLTT info.

Good Luck,

AL

Dave,

I went to the lasertile.com site and was really impressed with their products; but I saw no way to order from them. Do you know if they have an ordering system or would we need to sign up as a dealer?

thanks,
Todd

You have to become - register as a Distributor/Dealer first, or buy them off of someone who has.

Hi Todd,

Seems like Tim is still bored at work and beat me to this one. As he says.

To sign up as a dealer I think you will need a State Sales Tax number.

Yes I am, however.... I'll soon be changing day-jobs..again, but this time I'll not lack for work and I won't have internet access or limited access - VERY limited! It'll be good to wake up the 'ol brain again work complex IT issues.

Tim, Dave,

Don't sweat it. It's July 2nd, and I'm off tomorrow. Everyone at my office (day job) is running half-speed just waiting for 5 o'clock. "Bored" is a way of life at work today.

Thanks to both of you for responding.

Happy Independence Day!!

Ha, sounds like what's going on over here. Big lunches didn't help for most, either!

Not true - I went to the website and emailed them asking for a shipping quote and got an email from Jacquie Marote:

Hi Dee,

Well that may be so for the truly gifted folk, but I called and was told to fax some stuff including my AZ TPT (Transaction Privilege Tax) number.
