Printing spirit tops?
« on: August 30, 2016, 12:53:07 PM »
Hey guys/gals,

How are you all printing these? Got an inquiry about printing these and I presume you'd have to use a modified platen and larger screen?

Thanks,
Joe

that's one way, another is heat pressing cad cut vinyl. There are a fair amount of vids on youtube...

Jeramy at Boxercraft prints these all the time. Give him a call.  It does require a specialized platen squeegee and print technique. If it is a one off I would do as kingscreen suggests and sub it out.
