Screen Printing

This is a popular method that uses a stencil to apply ink to the surface of the item. It's known for its durability and vibrant colors, making it ideal for t-shirts, sweatshirts, tote bags, and other items that will get a lot of wear and tear.

Decoration Placement

Standard Spot Color w/ Metallic Gold

In the world of Printwear, spot color inks are favored for their high pigment concentration that results in vivid and eye-catching colors. When applied correctly, these inks create a "soft hand" finish with a light deposit of ink, ensuring a comfortable and premium feel for the printed garments.

Underprinting

Underprints or underbases are an essential tool in ensuring vibrant and accurate designs on (non-white) dark fabrics. By blocking the absorption of colors, underprints allow the desired colors to shine through. Without an underprint, the result is a less vibrant and less accurate print.

High Density Ink

Our dimensional ink allows for stacking multiple layers to create a striking 3-D effect that enhances the design and draws attention.

Simulated Sports Leather

Design a print that replicates the textured look of leather and gives the illusion of being stitched onto fabric for your Printwear needs.

Blister Ink

Enhance your design without breaking the bank. Our blister ink is activated by high temperatures in the dryer, creating a unique, edgy look with a crater-filled texture. Each shirt is one-of-a-kind with blister ink, giving a dynamic and interesting visual appeal.

Puff Ink

Looking for an ink that delivers a dimensional effect? Our expansion agent-infused ink expands in all directions, making it perfect for achieving slightly raised prints. While it's best for light coatings, you can also create heavier puff prints, although be cautious of potential cracking or uneven surfaces on the fabric.

Glow-in-the-Dark Ink

Utilize this ink to create striking outlines in black or dark colors that will glow in the dark when printed on white fabric. Ideal for adding a dramatic effect to your designs.

Silver Gel Ink

Introducing our new silver gel ink, a unique and cost-effective alternative to metallic foils. With its high concentration of finely ground metallic particles, this ink provides a shiny, metallic look that is perfect for small designs. Keep in mind that the ink may tarnish over time depending on laundering methods. Perfect for adding a touch of shimmer to your printwear designs.

Chino Ink

Introducing a cutting-edge ink designed for printing on white and light-colored fabrics. This innovative formula delivers vivid, eye-catching colors with a luxuriously soft feel.

Halftone Distressed

Distressed designs have been a staple in Printwear for years. The key is to perfectly distress the design to achieve a vintage look without compromising the integrity of the lettering.

Chip Distressed

The chipped distressed style adds a vintage, worn-in look to designs, making it a popular choice for printed apparel. This technique can be applied in one color or multiple colors to achieve the desired effect.

Clear Gel Ink

Add a dazzling touch to your designs with this ink that glimmers in the sunlight, creating the illusion of water. Ideal for bold, eye-catching graphics. Not suitable for intricate, small-scale artwork with sharp elements.

Glitter

Enhance your design with the shimmer of silver, gold, or colored glitter. Elevate the look with a clear, hyper-glittered top coat printed on top of your design to add a touch of sparkle.

Simulated Masking Tape

Crafted with a unique custom formula to mimic the appearance of masking tape, this design boasts a soft touch that pops on darker fabrics.

Simulated Baseball Leather

Printwear offers a raised effect ink that mimics the texture of baseball stitches, creating a striking contrast against a dark-colored background ink. This innovative technique allows for the modification of a white t-shirt by printing a background color, eliminating the need for a more costly dark fabric.

Simulated Leather

Enhance your design with basketball "nubbies" for a textured, stylized look that mimics the feel and appearance of a basketball. Ideal for white, ash, or light-colored fabrics, this addition will elevate your printwear with a sporty touch.

Super Gel

Enhance your screen printed design with a stylish "splash" effect using aqua blue shaded gel for a realistic water-like appearance. A drop-shadow surrounding the gel adds depth and creates a standout look against the fabric.

Neon Ink

Enhance your designs with our vibrant fluorescent inks, perfect for adding a burst of color and depth. For optimal results, layer these semi-transparent inks over a base of white ink for a stunning and impactful finish.

Special Effect Stitching

Enhance your design with a light puff ink outline, giving it the appearance of stitched detailing. This technique adds dimension and texture, perfectly complementing the popular varsity trend.

Metallic Foil

Printwear designs can shine brilliantly with the addition of foil, available in traditional gold or silver, or in a variety of metallic colors. The foil transfers are applied with a clear, adhesive ink, creating a stunning appearance that stands out, particularly against dark back-grounds. It is important to take special care when laundering garments with foil designs in order to preserve their luster.
