printing inside of t-shirt
« on: May 23, 2017, 11:46:15 AM »
I have a customer who wants a t-shirt with printing on the inside at the bottom of the shirt. What they have in mind is having a saying on the outside of the shirt that says quote: Ask me about my Mascott End Quote: And when someone ask them Quote: What about your Mascott End Quote: They raise their shirt and show there school mascot which is printed on the inside of the shirt. I would think print with light pressure to avoid pushing ink through the shirt. It is printing on Dark Heather, Black ink, so should be fairly easy. Correct?

I have done it on thick cotton shirts. I had to print it so they could flip the inside of the shirt over their face and art, mascot head, would be like a mask.

Yea, works best on thicker garments.

Fashion garments its realllly easy to apply to much pressure.

Possibly, put down a clear base to keep ink from going through the shirt for thinner garments.

Also, maybe a plastisol transfer.

Weve done it with a transfer successfully, but also as Colin said, by applying a clear base.

Reminds me of the inverted print program where we turned the garments inside out, invert the graphic, and purposely drive the image through the garment where it would show up as a ghost when the shirt was turned back rightside. Pretty damn popular
