Screen printing provides excellent durability as the inks involved where designed to be used on a range of different surfaces. In addition to the inks physical properties, the act of pressing the silk screen ink into the fabric further increases the longevity of the design.
A t-shirt or polo tee that uses the screen process will stand up to years of washes and physical abuse. We highly recommend this type of printing process for our clients in active environments often found in the service industry.
Screen printing is popular in contemporary art because of its ability for creativity and vivid colors. The inks that are used will last a long time before they begin to fade.
In most cases the ink that is used is called Plastisol, which was designed to offer superior colors and durability. The simple screen process also allows for modifications to the technique that can result in some fascinating designs.
Screen printing reduces the about of work to resize images and logos that would appear on different locations of the shirt. In other types of t-shirt printing, the image scaling process would involve making changes to many image files.
A good example of image scaling would be where the client wants a logo on the t-shirt pocket, the arm sleeve, and the back of the t-shirt. The silk screen process make use of photosensitive masks which greatly reduces the number of man hours.
The affordability of screen printing occurs when the size of the order increases as the fixed cost is then spread over the volume of items to be printed.
As an order size increases, the costs for screen printing falls, because the initial setup costs of the silk screening are spread over a larger number of garments. At some point, screen printing will actually become more economical than heat transfers.

The screenprinting process begins with preparing your design. Simple, bold artwork works best for this method. We ensure your artwork is high-quality and optimized for printing on the selected apparel or items.
After the artwork is prepared, we create screens for each color in your design. The screens act as stencils through which the ink is applied to your garments.
We apply ink to the screen and press it onto the fabric, layer by layer for multi-color designs. Each layer is cured to ensure the ink adheres properly and maintains its vibrant appearance.
Once the printing is complete, we inspect the final product to ensure quality. After approval, your custom-printed apparel is ready for pickup or delivery.
The type of ink we use is called plastisol. This ink is highly versatile, doesn't dry unless cured properly, and offers unmatched durability, resulting in a shirt that lasts a lifetime.
Of course! At Moonlight Custom Printing, we strive to meet your specifications. Contact us to discuss the water-based ink printing options we have available.
