What is water-based screen printing?
Water-based screen printing is a technique that uses water-based inks to create designs on fabric. These inks soak into the fabric, resulting in a soft, lightweight print that's less likely to crack over time.
Why choose water-based screen printing?
Water-based inks offer several benefits:
- Soft hand feel and lightweight prints
- Ideal for breathable, comfortable garments
- Less likely to crack or peel over time
What fabrics work best with water-based inks?
100% cotton is the optimal choice for water-based screen printing. However, our experts can advise on the best fabric for your specific project.
How durable are water-based prints?
With proper care, water-based prints can last for many years without fading or cracking.
What is embroidery?
Embroidery is a technique that creates designs using thread, rather than ink. It's ideal for adding texture and a premium look to garments.
What's the typical size for a chest logo embroidery?
For a standard chest logo, we typically size the design between 3.5-5 inches. The smallest text we can embroider is usually about 1/8 inch in height.
Do you charge extra for multiple colors in embroidery?
No, we don't charge by thread color for embroidery. Our pricing is based on stitch count and quantity of products.
Can you match print or thread colors?
We can match many colors closely, though exact matches may not always be possible. We'll work with you to get the closest match to your desired color.
When preparing ink and art for screenprinting, we rely on the Pantone Matching System (PMS) to ensure color accuracy. We use the Pantone Uncoated book as a reference for art and ink mixing.
How should I prepare my design for printing or embroidery?
Please provide a high-resolution image file or vector file of your artwork. If possible, separate your artwork from the background color durint the design process. For embroidery, we'll need to digitize your design. Our team can guide you through this process.
How do I care for my printed or embroidered items?
For best results, wash your items inside out in cold water and avoid using harsh detergents. Tumble dry on low heat or hang to dry. Specific care instructions may vary depending on the garment and printing method used.
