I'll take a shot.

Underbase Wilflex Bright tiger 110, PFP.

Each top color printed on top through a 110 with a flash between each color.

Am I close? ;)

He wasn't asking how YOU would do it.   ;D

I was thinking discharging a black 50/50.

Cool. so you flipped the tee inside out, and discharged the print from the inside?

same here.. it's an extra labor step to flip it in then out. I've had to do some sample printing of this technique, hard to do on a manual as the pressure has to penetrate beyond 50% of the fiber to achieve the desired effect.

At first I thought a distress pattern, then noticed it was from Tony, and immediately figured discharge. Printing on the inside is pretty cool, good catch Jason. I seem to remember (after the fact of course) that this technique was mentioned maybe a few weeks ago... Looks very fashionable, not that I'd know.
