No...since the ink is heat sensitive, you cannot 're-do' them...I guess you could be the result would not be good. This has been my experience

Have to disagree, I've added names to mugs at a later date and had no problems.

Default Re: sublimation mugs

I have done this many many times. Just wrap a peice of paper around the finished area. Apply the new image and cook as usual. Works well for me...
