Check out the bottom of Page 28 of this document - www.multirip.com/dtg101.pdf.

(this is page 27 if you are not counting the cover page). There are links to some posts that talk about this specific thing.

Default Re: Which Brands of Dark shirts print best?

I would love to wake up this thread. We have been through many cotton shirts. We have had the best white 1 pass 1440 on Port Authority PC61 shirts. I would love to know others experiences. Getting a solid "athletic" white with one pass has proved to be difficult, but the PC61 really seems to work the best.

Thoughts?

Anvil 980's (ring spun cotton) seem to work pretty well, and they are reasonably priced.
