Description
The Frost Buddy® Universal Buddy 2.0 is the world’s first universal can cooler, engineered to insulate nearly all 12oz and 16oz cans and bottles. Its double-wall vacuum-insulated stainless steel construction keeps contents cold for over 12 hours or hot for 6 hours, making it a reliable companion for long days. A non-slip silicone bottom provides stability on any surface and fits most cup holders.
This Merica 2.0 edition features a powder-coated finish with a bold, dishwasher-safe graphic.

Decoration & Imprint
4 methods
Your mark is applied to the front of the can cooler. Screen printing lays down crisp, opaque spot colors; heat transfer delivers full-color photographic detail with smooth gradients; and laser etching creates a permanent, recessed mark in the material's own tone.
Silkscreen - Drinkware1 color/location included · one-time setup $60.00 · Up to 4 colors
Screen printing presses ink through a fine mesh stencil, laying down each color as a separate pass. Each color lays down as its own premixed spot ink, printing solid and consistent across the run. The applied mark is flat and opaque, sitting on top of the material with crisp edges; on heavy coverage, you can feel a slight raised texture where ink builds up. The cured ink is durable and holds up to repeated handling and washing.
TruColorone-time setup $60.00 · Full color
Full-color transfer heat-applies a printed film directly onto the item, bonding it as a thin, smooth surface layer. It reproduces photographic imagery, multi-color artwork, and continuous gradients — capabilities solid spot-color methods cannot match. The finished mark reads as a flat, slightly filmic layer with a subtle sheen at the surface boundary; its strength is color complexity, tonal shading, and fine detail.
Laserone-time setup $60.00
Laser engraving uses a focused beam to etch your design directly into the surface, leaving a permanent, recessed mark with clean, sharp edges that hold fine lines and small text. The result carries no separate ink: it reads in the substrate's own tone — a lighter shade on metal, a darker burn on wood — with a depth you can feel and a mark that resists fading, wear, and scratching.
