Question Printing on neon shirts

Have not printed on neon in years, but got an order this week... I 'assumed' that 320 would be the same norm to cure...front of shirt went through fine; back of shirt started changing color in spots..kind of like a scorch, but more of a color change.. lowered temp and put speed up on oven and got the cure, but still a color change???
any info out there...anyone can tell me anything unique on printing neons??? I will appreciate any and all info

Default Re: Printing on neon shirts

Hi Lewie

...questions for you:

What is the shirt brand, neon color, and "shade" of color shift?

Is the color change on the unprinted backside random over the entire surface
or roughly cooresponding to the print location on the frontside?

Does the discoloration not occur if flashed on press?
