Opportunity is missed by most people because it is dressed in overalls and looks like work. - Thomas Edison

Nothing like the next day. Especially when it is half way across country.

Nothing like the next day. Especially when it is half way across country.for example: a few weeks ago customer wants 3000 shirts, 7 different shirts (mixture of short sleeve tee, ladies tee, ladies tank, zip front hooded sweatshirts). 8 color front, 5 color back for the festival on saturday in florida. - art comes in on thursday, spelling is incorrect on the front, fixed by thursday noon and shirts start printing by 1pm. back art comes in and it also has a spelling error. we correct the art, print the backs and the job is finished by 3:20pm on friday and ready for overnight shipping from New Hampshire to get to the customer on saturday.
Simple one color water base metallic print. Don't even bother trying to make out the text. It's a metal band. Good one, but don't worry about it.Anyway, the pics do not do justice to the softness of the metallic print. Besides printing on the Gildan 2000's they went on super thin Bella's and plastisol would have not been right. Power to the water base metallics!

S thread or LX thread. Works wonders. Hey man, I need to get in touch with you anyway. You free tomorrow to chat on the phone? I can call when your not busy. If that is such a thing haha. Let me know. Thanks!
My guess would be Matsui metallic
