Master the basic process of T-shirt printing
To carry out T-shirt design, you must first master the basic process of T-shirt printing, but also understand the manufacturer’s printing technology level and the T-shirt printing equipment used. For example, T-shirts of colored fabrics have always been printed with water-based glue, but if the producer has mastered the production technology of thermosetting plastic inks, purchases and purchases corresponding equipment (mainly T-shirt printers, infrared dryers, Infrared T-shirt oven, etc.), he can use thermosetting ink to print colored fabric T-shirts.
The glue printing and thermosetting ink printing have different requirements for the design of the pattern. The glue can only be used for simple color block pattern printing, and the thermosetting ink can be printed with a screen transition, not only on white T-shirts. Screen printing of primary colors and spot color printing on dark T-shirts.
If the pattern designed by the designer does not match the technical craftsmanship mastered by the producer, the printed pattern will not reach the designer’s original intention and effect, or even print at all.
