Good clear high resolution or vector artwork is best for screen print. When you zoom in on the artwork on screen it should appear crisp with clean edges free of pixellation. If you start with a file resoltion of 300 dpi you are already on your way to print success! We can also create artwork for you, or clean up your existing files- art charges may apply.
Our max standard print size is 14 x 16, we also offer over-size printing.
The most popular ink used in the garment printing industry is Plastisol ink. Screen printing plastisol ink is easy to print, does not dry in the screen, is opaque on dark garments, and features great adhesion to most t-shirt, athletic jerseys, hoodies, heat transfers, and most textiles in general. We do offer some discharge and water based options but Plastisol is always our go to choice!
For printed ink colors, we use a standard set of inks that match the PMS refernce colors used in our proofing. Please note that everyone’s computer monitor will display colors a little differently so you may see some variation from the proof and final physical shirt print. PMS color matching is available and priced based on the amount of ink needed.
Vintage / Soft Hand Printing
A very popular technique for lightweight garments. We can get that vintage "semi-transparent look" with a soft hand feel by utilizing a special base with our standard inks- at no extra charge to you.
Print Washability
The washability of properly cured direct and transfer prints are excellent. When washing, it is always recommended that the garment be turned inside out. Dry cleaning is not recommended. Do not iron the printed part of the garment.
