As Halloween is fast approaching, costumes are getting planned and bought. Instead of having the same costume as everyone else, you can make your own. There are many ways to make your own costume by finding things around the house you can use or borrowing something from a friend. I have one more option that could work just for you. So sit back and let me tell you the story about dye sublimation shirt printing.

Dye Sublimation Shirt Printing    

Our story takes place at a screen printing company called AMBRO Manufacturing, who also offers many other services other than screen printing. One of those is called sublimation. Sublimation is a type of heat transferring. When the paper gets hot the vapers escape from the paper and gets dyed into the shirt. The colors are vibrant and bright. The options for colors are endless, as we can print full color images using dye sublimation shirt printing. The only request we have is that the shirt must be white and 100% polyester to guarantee the best results.

You can get an all over design or just on the front. We also can do prints on both sides of the shirt. The print can go from seam to seam which is huge and becoming more and more popular. Imagine what you can do for your costume with a print from seam to seam.

Four Color Process Screen Printing

Four Color Process Screen Printing

There are a few options for designers when considering a multiple color, photo realistic T-Shirt or other garment.  The primary process is Four Color Process Screen Printing with Simulated Four Color Process Screen Printing as a second option and Sublimation Printing as a third option.

Four Color Process Screen Printing

The process of Four Color Process Screen Printing is typically used on a white shirt to create photo realistic results.  An experienced screen printer like AMBRO Manufacturing will work with your design team to develop the color separations for your Four Color Process Screen Printing project.

Artwork in a JPG, BMP, PNG or other common format is separated into CMYK values and using specialized separation software, sequences of print are calculated to achieve the multi color result.

Once the color separations are completed, and the screens are burned, your screen printer can begin printing your Four Color Process Screen Printing just like any other screen print job.  The main differences in Four Color Process Screen Printing vs. traditional screen printing, is the type of inks used. 

Opaque / See Thru, inks are used in a 4 color process printing job.  This enables inks to lay on top of each other to create multiple colors out of 4 basic colors.  It is for this reason that the white background or white shirt is so critical.  White is one of the colors that is used to create the effect of the other colors.   Since the inks are opaque, the white base is a component of the color results.

If you need to have a shirt other than white for Four Color Process Screen Printing, then you will need to speak with your contract screen printer about using Simulated Four Color Process Screen Printing, which involves more than 4 colors.
