4 COLOR PROCESS

A printing process where you start with full-color artwork like a photo, and then colors are separated out to yellow, cyan, magenta and black.

SIMULATED PROCESS
Also used with artwork like a photo, this process offers a much brighter, more colorful image than 4 color process because it uses more than just four inks (up to nine).  Additional colors are added which provide enhancements to specific areas of the print, just like spot colors.

SPOT COLOR
Based upon the Pantone® matching system which allows you to specify colors by indicating the Pantone® name or number to assure that you get the right color when the product is printed. The ink colors are solid on the garment without color variations. Shading is achieved through the use of half-tones.

HEAT TRANSFERS
This process is used in locations such as four panel baseball caps and also on garments that can not withstand the screen printing process.

MIXED MEDIA
It is also possible to do more than one screen printing process to a garment.  Adding embroidery or a decal to a screen printed job makes for a more attractive and diversifying finished product.
