Does printing on performance fabrics such as wicking t-shirts last as long as regular t-shirts?
Printing on wicking t-shirts with plastisol inks does last as long and is just as durable as regular t-shirts. It goes through the same screen printing process and is run through the dryer at the same temperature. The high temperature cures the ink and bonds it to the fabric as it dries. once this is done, there is almost no way of getting the ink off the t-shirts.
Screen printing with plastisol inks is almost impossible to have the ink peel off of the shirts. That is more commonly seen with heat transfers and heat sealed designs. Heat transfers give screen printing a bad name because a big misconception is to consider them on in the same. That is just not the case. Screen printing is much higher quality, longer lasting and more flexible through wear and tear.
