FAQs – How to get the most out of your screen print.
Can I print the same design across mens and womens shirts ?
A- Yep – provided it;’s a size that fits. (Use a ruler to measure but generally 28 – 30cm wide is a size that fits all)
Can I print the same design across different items?
A- Yes – in many cases we print the same graphics for cafes across both T-shirts and aprons. You could have the same artwork on 50 Tshirts and then order 10 Hoodies at the same time, using the same artwork.
Can you print photographic work?
A- Yep – it’s not super photo if you are looking from 5cm away but is very cool when you look at it like it was on a T-shirt from 50cm – 1m away, just like anything Billabong do. Photos are printed as “halftones” a series of dots that makeup the image.
What other inks can you print?
A- Gold & Silver Metallics, Fluro, Glo in the dark – depending on the size of the graphics surcharges apply. If you can supply a PMS / Pantone colour reference that really helps.
