How “Short Run” T Shirts Are Made
In the last few years there has been many changing in the T Shirt Printing Industry. Normally you had to order a bunch of T-Shirts because of the screen set-up charges for screen printing. Now thanks to some innovation short run T Shirts can be printed in low quantities (even just one).
Check out this video we put on YouTube and you will see how it’s done:
After the vinyl is cut with our Roland Vinyl Cutter each piece has to be hand weeded. This can take some time for small fonts and logos with detail in it. The dot above the small letter “i” can be a nightmare as well.
O's really aren't that bad, but you can image how tedicious it could be with a detailed logo or small letters. We use a dental pick to weed.
Here’s a photo that shows a job half weeded so you can get a full idea of what’s involved:

Once the weeding process is done we fire up the heat press to about 330 degrees and apply it to the T-Shirt for about 8 seconds. As soon as the 8 seconds are up we peel the backing off and presto! Vinyl will never crack or peel and will outlive the garment.
