What is ink matching for screen printing?
Have you ever wondered have you ever wondered how the Dallas Cowboys blue is always the same blue? Or what happens when one person says red and there are actually many different shades of red? Easy, we use ink matching with the Pantone Color Matching System.
Matching ink as a concept is simply matching an ink color to the specifications of the customer. We come across this all the time when there are set colors in a logo or a sports team that need to be duplicated with ink in the print. It is very important that the ink color you're looking for is the exact ink color you receive in the design on your printed t-shirts.
The easiest way this is done is by providing us with a PMS color that is determined by you after looking at a PMS color chart. If you don't have one, you can find one that matches up with your color or ask the original art's designer what PMS colors they would recommend.
We do not charge extra for ink matching and we actually encourage it. This makes it easy for us to understand the exact color you are looking for and we can match that color to the shade with the resources provided to us by our ink suppliers.
