Special Effects

Fluorescent

! While exact ink colors are always difficult to simulate accurately on a computer screen, fluorescent colors are impossible to replicate on a computer monitor. These are meant as an approximation of the actual color.

 

Glow in the Dark

 

Suede Inks

! Suede ink additive can be added to almost any of our standard plastisol inks!

 

Photochromic (color-changing inks)

! Colors appear transparent until exposed to sunlight. That’s cray-cray, yo.

No color selected.

Discharge

These are our standard discharge inks.  We can mix any color for a one-time $25 charge.  Please read below to understand discharge’s limitations and advantages.

 

What is discharge ink, you ask?

Discharge printing uses a chemical process to remove the dye in the fibers of a shirt and replaces it with a new color or leaves the natural cotton color when no color is added. It allows for a clean, soft and breathable print on your apparel. If you are concerned about the plastic-feeling, make-your-back-sweaty-in-the-summertime, raised ink that screen printed shirts sometimes have, then discharge is for you! It’s some sexy stuff.

Here’s some important stuff you’ll probably want to know

No color selected.

Waterbase

These are our standard waterbase inks.  We can mix any color for a one-time $15 charge.  Say!

Waterbase inks are much softer and lighter than plastisol inks.  Plus, they breathe once washed (unlike plastisol), making them especially well-suited for large, solid prints.

 

Waterbase Shimmers

* Soy inks are also available!

No color selected.
Hover/tap a swatch to view a larger sample.

Direct-to-Garment

Direct-to-Garment printing (AKA DTG or Digital) uses 4-color process printing to create all its colors, the same way an inkjet printer does. Printing this way has distinct advantages, but a couple disadvantages too. For a detailed comparison of Screen Printing and Digital/DTG Printing, check out our FAQ on it.
