Printing on moisture wicking t's

(1/3) > >>

shirtz:
Getting alot of orders and need to know how to print these.
I now know white on red turns pink!

rmonks:
I would think depending on the color that poly ink would be the choice. most of that moisture wicking is more polyester that cotton. I too am getting ready to print some OD Green shirt white ink. I will use poly ink and watch the cure temp.

We print quite a few and usually do not apply any special treatment just good ink. I wear one everyday instead of T's and they have held up for years. Red will need a print flash print and we use a 110 mesh screen. I have found that Royal blue is the worst about bleeding but the ink holds good. Be careful on oven temp. may have to speed up belt to where you do not go over 320 to cure, you can draw them up if too hot. I almost forgot we use One Stoke white on a solid white print and Sonny's white for a base with a little nylobond in it on the ones with color laying on top. Good Luck

Why the Nylobond? Have you had an adhesion problem otherwise?
