Great looking print.  I like the color transitions. Smooth and good screens.

How did you manage to end up with Chinese mesh. My experience with any thing screen print related from China is rather of the negative side of things. As a matter of fact I would almost say don`t buy anything of Alibaba especially not without trade assurance. I can`t recall a single order where things arrived either as described, not damaged or of such low quality that it didn`t even last for a year before breaking down.

Man, if I didn’t know better Serj I’d swear your screen prints look like DTG prints but much better.  Amazing

Here is another photo race tee.  Again, 5 colors on black tee. (Not black ink).  We used a 305 mesh on the base. Yes, a 305 mesh.  280 on the top white. 305 on colors.  Yellow, red, blue.
65 lpi.   On this one, the thing is, I have a logo blue color I need to stick with (if I can), but I also have to achieve a good purple. So it's give and take. you have to decide what blue you can use to hit both targets...and also that will create all of the other areas needed (in the mixing). So I got the good logo blue, and got the good purple in the car. Overall, it has to leave a different cast to the photo/art/sand, but it works.  My yellow pretty much stays the same. PMS 102 or Lemmon yellow to some people whose RFU.  The red is known as a Drake red and is close to pms 185 red.  This blue, is more of a concoction. I usually refer to a pms 2995, 3005, or a process blue. TO lean towards better greens, I use more of a teal blue like pms 313. Not too much white in the blue's.

Super soft!

This I-Phone photo of the print is a tad more yellow than the print. The same is more “sand” colored.

Corrected orientation of photo.

Stop. Hold up. You’re saying Dan is color blind? Is that serious or just a joke? If I find out he’s color blind and still manages to give me good seps every time I’ll have a whole new level of respect. The seps already work out with few minor or no tweaks which I can highly appreciate.
