So I finally finished a design I've been working on for a while and I really excited to start printing it. But I wanted to see how you would print this.
It's 2-color; thin, dark gray pin-lines on the bottom and thicker light gray pin-lines on top. Printed on a black shirt. Here's the 2 ways I'm considering doing it:
1. I just print the top light-gray color over the thin dark gray (wet on wet) so I don't have to worry as much about registering. Or will that cause smearing?
2. Or I knock-out the small intersecting areas (but then I have to be really exact with registering).
I use a 4 color 1 station table top press from Roynet and water based inks. I know that registering on this press can be a little tricky so I was leaning towards option 1.
Knockout or knockout discharge.
edit: since you have a 4 color press, you might make a 3rd screen that is not knockout and do a test print. Just set all 3 screens up on the press, and try printing light on top of dark lines. If it doesn't work, your knockout will already be setup.
