Buying the film, cutting, weeding and applying it ourselves.

I dont sell it to my customers that way.. (as by the sq inch). But you can figure.. that .. say You have a roll of say eco-film. a 10 yard roll will cost you 67.50.. .. or $2.25 for a linear foot 15 inchs by 12inch. Your cost.. Weeding can differ in how much time it takes depending on the design ... I just kinda figure all my cost.. for the amount of material plus the shirts.. figure in my weeding time (i make a min of $85.00 an hour as my goal). and figure in how many shirts the person is getting.... If they are getting over a dozen shirts i knock the price per shirt down a dollar.. and if they are getting more than 24 i knock it down another buck..

Hope this helps a bit.. pricing can be tricky.. but there are so many varibles you cant really do a per sq inch qoute.. at least i cant..
