Hello all, it's been a while.

We have designed a women's t-shirt I would like to screen print with a metallic ink, about a pink champagne color. It is an image and a word.

The question is, do the metallic colors -- a light one in this case -- pop enough on white. I'd like for the word to be readable.

I love the metallic, but we've never used it.

Thank you!

Depends on the color. Metallic silver will show up just not like black ink on a white T.
Sample and test on a white T or pellon.

Thank you.
I have my tees sent out to a contractor to screen print, so not sure if they'll do a sample run for me. Will ask.

See if they will take a digital pic and email before running the order. When I print contract jobs, if there is an issue with the print (not looking good or showing up) we will not run the order until talking with the customer.
