Neoprene topping for pallets for printing over zippers????
« on: October 30, 2013, 04:33:16 PM »
Hey Guys, does anyone know if there was a discussion with some tips and tricks about using neoprene topping with a notch down the center  to temporarily put on pallets for printing over zippers on hoodies? I thought there was one but I can't find. Any help is truly appreciated as always. Thanks guys

Thanks Darryl.

Hey John, did you notch your neoprene, or just print straight over it pushing the zipper and all that extra surrounding fabric down into the neoprene. Also, I see maybe somone used rolled foam from Uline? Is that because after use it's cheap enough to through out. Got a big customer of ours that wants us to do several different zipper hoodie orders over the next couple cold months, of course all multi color discharge. They are willing to lend the designing around the zipper, but we would make them super happy if they were able to have a design float right over the zippers without the big nasty ink build up that happens on a straight flat pallet. Before dropping a couple g's on zipper pallets, I wanted to try and pull off one of these temporary methods. Thanks for the link and the hints so far!
