FAQ

  • Can you make me t-shirts?

  • What is screen printing?

    Screen printing is a reproduction technique, typically used on garments, canvas, and posters. It utilizes manually pushing individual ink colors through a stencil, and layering each color, to reproduce the design. The more colors in the design, the more labor there is, which affects the overall price of the job.
