Have you ever felt our Flowy fabric? It’s insanely soft Oli Eat Well T-Shirt . When screen printing, it’s important to choose an ink that complements the drape of the the original garment, which is why water based inks are top recommendation for printing on lighter-colored garments. Water based ink saturates into the fibers of the fabric, so the resulting print won’t have any hand-feel. When working with a blank white t-shirt or garment, the colors of the print will be true to their original color. But if you’re working with a light-colored garment like our heather stone, the ink color will mix with the garment color and you’ll end up with more of a muted or vintage-looking print. When working with poly-viscose fabric, you should use a spray adhesive before loading the garment onto the machine to avoid slippage. Another consideration is that water based ink needs to be used in lower temperatures and kept moist, which you can do by using a spray bottle to keep the ink from hardening up. Since water based ink takes longer to cure than plastisol, for instance, you may need to adjust the belt speed and temperature.
