Can you screen print on dark-coloured garments?
Edited
Yes, definitely. We use an underbase layer of white ink beneath a design on dark fabrics to make sure that the colours pop. This helps maintain brightness and consistency, even on black or navy garments. You’ll still get that smooth, professional finish we’re known for, even across a range of colours. Some customers that are seeking a more "retro" and faded print style request that the white underbase be left off of their screen prints to achieve a more vintage subtle screen print. If this is your goal, please let our sales team know at the time of ordering so they can make a note of it on your screen print order.
