Default Screen Printing Mouse Pads???

Hey Guys,
a real newbie, I have been doing t-shirts for a few months and things are going well. I have a neighbor wanting mouse pads (175).

Can they be screen printed? and if so what is the best ink? and how to dry?

Thanks for all the great info that I have gotten off this forum.

not sure, but they seem to almost always be done by sublimation. this is probably because the process leaves no "hand" or texture to the surface area. if you screen print them, there will be raised areas on the pad that may interfere with the mouse function.

i'd probably outsource the job. (to a sublimation printer)
