This is a pre-made vinyl record slip mat example with screen printing on one side and sublimation on the other, packaged so you can directly compare the two print methods in hand before committing to a custom run. Pricing includes first class shipping within the USA.
This is not a custom item. It's a pre-made example with standard Alchemy artwork on each side — not a sample of your design. Useful for music labels, indie record shops, DJs, and bands deciding which print method works better for an upcoming vinyl release or merch drop.
What you'll see in person
The two print methods read very differently on felt: screen printing gives clean flat colors with crisp lines (best for 1-3 color logo and label-style designs), while sublimation embeds full-color art into the fibers themselves (best for photo-realistic, gradient-heavy, or all-over designs). Holding both side by side is the fastest way to decide which fits your record release.
The actual custom slip mat products we make
- Screen-printed slip mats (single-sided) — classic 1-3 color screen, most economical
- Screen-printed slip mats (double-sided) — same screen process on both faces
- Sublimated slip mats — full-color all-over print, best for photo-realistic art
All start at 50 pieces per design with custom thickness options (2-5mm). Sized for standard 12" turntable platters.
