Personalize any garment or trucker hat
with custom screen print
Screen printing, also known as silk screening, is a printing technique where a mesh screen is used to transfer ink onto a substrate, such as t-shirt or a 100% polyester truck hat. The process involves creating a stencil (“or screen”) of the desired design on the screen material, then placing the screen over the substrate using a squeegee, creating the desired image. Each color in the design requires a separate screen and printing pass, allowing for multi-colored designs.
screen print overview
Overview
Screen printing is ideal to use when you have a bulk order of at least 48 pcs. It is recommended to simplify the amount of colors of your design to 1 to 2 colors for maximum savings, unless you really need to have more than 2 colors. This technique can be applied to either 100% cotton or a 50/50 blend t-shirt. As far as caps go, 100% polyester trucker caps are the way to go. For multicolor designs and fewer that 48 pcs. digital imprints is the best option.
Artwork
In order to achieve crisp, clean, sharp lines in your design we need to have the original artwork in a vector file which usually is in an AI,PDF,CDR, & SVG formats. If you do not have your artwork in these formats a 300 DPI resolution jpeg, Bitmap or PNG are acceptable to recreate your design, then it can be scaled to whatever size your design requires without being distorted.
