PRINTING:
Garment printing is done in plastisol ink unless otherwise noted.
Paper printing is done using waterbased ink.
Specialty inks, such as waterbased ink and discharge ink, for garments are priced higher due to the level of print difficulty and overall handling.

. Screens used for posters are reclaimed once the project has been printed. A re-order of a poster would require new screens to be created. The poster would then be considered a 'Second Edition'.
