<\/a>Foil Screen PrintingScreen Printing Foil<\/figcaption><\/figure>\nFoil is an easy and attractive effect\u00a0to use when decorating shirts. The flash and brilliance of foil makes a shirt stand out in a crowd and can increase the value of a shirt tremendously. We say foil is easy because if you use the right products it’s actually not that hard to do! Foil is best applied through a transfer process on a special foil adhesive but it can also transfer to standard plastisol\u00a0and special affects\u00a0plastisol. Foil transfers are fun and can make mouths drop.<\/p><\/div>\n
<\/strong>\u00a0<\/h3>\nDischarge Printing:<\/strong><\/h3>\n![\"\"](\"http:\/\/brandedscreenprinting.files.wordpress.com\/2011\/08\/discharge-printing-ink.jpg?resize=175%2C200\" "\\"Discharge")
<\/a>Discharge Printing<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n <\/p>\n
Discharge is a specialty ink used in screen printing. It results in very soft hand, showing the shirt’s natural fiber instead of laying a thick layer of ink on top of the shirt, and can be printed as pure discharge or with pigments added so that the result is a colored discharge print. By itself, discharge ink removes the dye of the cotton fiber when it hits a certain temperature. It works with a variety of different brands and styles of t-shirts or other garments, with some styles and colors having stronger results than others.<\/p>\n
Discharge positives:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n- Cool alternative to traditional plastic inks<\/li>\n
- Very soft prints<\/li>\n
- Beautiful colors<\/li>\n
- Easy to work with<\/li>\n
- Awesome for printing on darker color garments<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
Discharge negatives:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n- Cannot be used for most “process” or full color printing<\/li>\n
- Limited in the level of detail that can be done<\/li>\n
- Pantone matching can sometimes be difficult<\/li>\n
- Doesn’t work well with all dyes, so that colors like royal blue and purple may not work<\/li>\n
- Not ideal for all materials, working best on 100% cotton<\/li>\n
- Traditional inks are better for very large print runs, like over 500 prints\n\u00a0<\/div>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
Glitter Inks, Metallic Inks\u00a0and Shimmer Inks:<\/h3>\n
Shimmers\u00a0combine the best features of glitters and metallics.
\nThey have a finish similar to metallics, but with a much greater sparkle, and the color range of glitters. Shimmer inks are non-tarnishing and high-opacity, with excellent elasticity and wash-ability.<\/p>\n

<\/a><\/dt>\n- Glitter Ink<\/dd>\n<\/dl>\n
<\/p>\n
Metallic inks are available in silver, gold, and other colors.
\nJust as the name implies, they have a shiny, metallic look and great wherever a glitzy, showy print that resembles real gold or silver is desired.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Glitter ink contains large reflective \u201cplastic flakes\u201d that are suspended in clear or colored, transparent plastisol. Glitter flakes can also be sprinkled on the wet ink for an more\u00a0substantial \u201cglittery\u201d look although this can be a time consuming process. But this extra step will provide more glitter in the design.<\/p>\n
