At Kahne Screen Print, we want your screen print order to look as awesome as it can! Some of the common things that we suggest you consider when placing your T-shirt order, as well as things to avoid, are explained below. If you have any other questions about apparel printing, call or text us.
To get the best quality print when screen printing, we need as flat of a surface as possible between the pallet (that the garment lays on) and the screen (that contains your design). The fronts and backs of t-shirts are consistently smooth and the same thickness, which allows us to get a perfect print every time. However, when you print over a seam, pocket, or zipper, it creates an inconsistency in height in accordance with the screen because these are thicker portions of the garment.
When you print over these sections of the garment, it can create a gap in the print where the ink from the screen does not touch the shirt due to the ridge caused by the seam. And it usually doesn’t look too hot. Here are a few examples of other issues that can occur:

These items do not work well with screen printing detail because they are not smooth like standard t-shirts. For more information about these issues, please call us today.
Hoodies are one of the more difficult garments to print on, but they are also one of the best-selling items during the winter. The following are a few issues to be aware of when printing hoodies:
