How to prepare a motif for screen printing<\/h1>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

It's easy to prepare<\/span><\/p>

See how to do it, so the sieve understands you at a glance<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

1. Black and white, nothing more\n<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

  • Your proposal <\/span>must<\/b> be black and white - <\/span>draw in black what you want to print on the T-shirt.<\/b>
    <\/b>The white (or blank space) will remain unprinted.<\/span><\/p>

    Do not add any grey shadows, gradients or other colours - <\/span>the sieve likes sharp contrast.<\/b><\/p>

    And don't worry, you won't print black in the final. You choose the colour on the spot - feel free to choose pink, green or gold.<\/span><\/p><\/li><\/ul>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

    \n\t\t\t\t

    2. Fix, tablet or pause?\n<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
    \n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

    The motive you can:<\/span><\/p>

    • prepare in <\/span>tablet or computer<\/b>, send us an email or print it from us (wi-fi and Bluetooth ready)<\/span><\/li><\/ul>
      • draw directly on <\/span>tracing paper<\/b> (black acrylic marker)<\/span><\/li><\/ul>

        The main rule?<\/span>
        <\/span><\/b><\/p>

        Black must be really black.<\/b> Not a grey bore, but a proper <\/span>saturation<\/b>.<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

        3. Digital documents\n<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
        \n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

        If you are preparing the design digitally:\u00a0<\/span><\/p>

        • we don't need vectors, but let us ideally 300 dpi\u00a0<\/b><\/li><\/ul>
          • pay attention to the strength of the lines: <\/span>at least 0,4 mm<\/b> - and calmly <\/span>more.\u00a0 <\/b>Ptoo thin lines are harder to transfer - and the sieve doesn't like that very much<\/span><\/li><\/ul>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t
            \n\t\t\t\t
            \n\t\t\t\t\t

            4. Size & format<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
            \n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

            We recommend sticking to <\/span>A4 size<\/b> - ideal for first printing.<\/span>
            <\/span><\/p>

            Do you want to go bigger (maybe up to A3)? It's possible. You just need more experience.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

            \n\t\t\t\t
            \n\t\t\t\t\t

            5. Don't overpay\n<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
            \n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

            S\u00edto likes clarity and simplicity.<\/span>
            <\/span>At <\/span>first press<\/b> Recommended <\/span>distinctive motif understandable at a glance<\/b>.<\/span>
            <\/span>Save the detailed drawings and subtleties for round two in the open workshop.<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

            \n\t\t\t\t
            \n\t\t\t\t\t

            6. What about the print colour?\n<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
            \n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

            What you have in black in the proposal, <\/span>you can print in any colour<\/b> - neon, pastel or gold.<\/span>
            <\/span>The black is only used for transfer to the sieve.<\/b> What you do with it next is up to you.<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t
