Using Ink Additives, we’re able to transform regular plastisol inks into something truly unique. Add texture, dimension, shine, and more to a print to create a thoughtfully enhanced image..
Contact us if you’ve got a weird idea or a strange substrate. We’ll diagnose the project and help you figure out how to get it in to production for your next custom screen printing project. This applies to most non-garment items and garments made from unconventional fibers.
FOIL PRINTING applies Metallic Foils to a design is a great way to set your print apart from the herd. Using a special adhesive in place of regular ink, we’re able to add leaf foils to accent your print or make a bold full scale print really stand out. This plays especially well with water-based and discharge inks.
PLASTIPUFF is a plastisol puff ink formulated to cure and expand rapidly. PLASTIPUFF also produces an exceptionally strong, long-lasting ink film with a high uniform finish and excellent abrasion resistance. The inks should be used on T-shirts, sweatshirts and other woven cotton and cotton/polyester garments.
GLOW INK will only be effective in complete darkness, when it will radiate a bright lite-green color. Heavier ink deposits will result in increased phosphorescence (brightness) and a longer “after-life.” It must be printed on white fabric or, for best results, over white plastisol.
In daylight or artificial light conditions, this ink will have a pale off-white hue. Colors can be obtained by adding small amounts (up to 10%) of Fluorescent Inks.
BURNOUT INK eliminates any cotton it touches. Since it only eliminates cotton, burnout ink needs to be printed on poly/cotton blends so that there is fabric left once the cotton has been removed. When initially printed, the ink appears to be just a clear ink printed on a shirt. However, once the shirt is washed, the cotton washes away leaving only the poly or synthetic fibers behind.
