How Does T-Shirt Screen Printing Work?
While the process varies slightly based on the print company, there is a general laundry list of steps involved in making screen printed t-shirts.
After you choose the style of t-shirt, fabric, quantity, and custom design or design template to be applied, the screen printing process begins.
- The colors of the designs are mixed together. We ensure and guarantee exact color matching to your brand design.
- A negative of your custom design art is created and applied on a screen to set and expose -- very similar to how photographs are developed.
- If the custom design has more than one color, steps 1 - 2 are repeated.
- After the design has been fully developed, the t-shirt is ready to be printed on.
- The t-shirt is securely placed in a frame. Using screen technology, the design is perfectly positioned.
- The ink (and there are many different kinds of ink depending on the look and feel you’re going for) is then pressed into the t-shirt with a squeegee.
- Again, if your custom design has more than one color, the inks are applied separately until the design is completed.
- Once all the inks are applied and the design has been pressed onto the t-shirt, the ink then sets. Each ink has a different set temperature, but on a basic level, the ink sets onto the t-shirt with a precise degree of heat.
- Once dried, the screen printing process is complete and you have a finished screen printed t-shirt.
How to Customize T-Shirts?
There isn’t a formulaic answer for how to customize a t-shirt -- as there are literally thousands of ways to do so. That’s where our team can really help you out.
We work with you to learn what the screen printed t-shirts will be for, who will ultimately be wearing them, and offer recommendations around your specific needs.
We’ve done a variety of different custom screen printed applications on t-shirts including the standard front and back application, but it’s the subtle details that really make screen-printed t-shirts stand out.
Think about how a design may look on a sleeve or cuff, for example, or printing an interior label, and other non-conventional placements to make your custom t-shirt collection truly one-of-a-kind.
