 Not with the ELT. When this inks is printed right and cured right it will last. The ELT has proven itself time and time again.

 The more education we give our printers and the more the printers educate the consumer, the better off everybody is going to be. Just sending out a simple washing instruction sheet with each and every order of camo shirts the better off we will all be.

  Is it your fault the shirt bleed after washing it in hot water and drying on the hottest temperature ? No ...you did your part by printing the garment correctly and using the proper product. But in the consumers eye YOU did a bad job and you don't know what you are doing ! Now that bad print is showing up at the ball park and your name is being passed around and you are losing business, all because your customer DID NOT know how to handle this garment in the beginning  ..  So Educate your customers !

Why are the edges of that print so fuzzy and the finish so rough?

shorter mimosa: "Why do those prints look like sh!t?"

Here are some pictures of sublimated Badger shirts that we print daily with silicone with no show-through. We also print with plastisol if requested. The silicone ink we are using to block the sublimation is Rutland's Barrier Black. On our solid bodied garments there is no need to use the barrier with silicone. We are working on a training video to distribute that will show our techniques for success with silicone and plastisol.

Hi Tom and welcome to the boards!  I am sure you can be of great value to the members here - especially in terms of printing on traditional polyester and polyester camo dye sublimated fabrics. 

Hope all is well with you, and look forward to seeing you soon.
