Hey guys,
I've been trolling the forums for a long time, but finally decided to sign up... We started a clothing company about 6 months ago here in San Diego, CA and have been trying out different screenprinters.
The problem we have run into is that nobody seems to meet our expectations... Are they too high?
Seems like every company we go to has registration issues... Not horribly off, but slight imperfections..
Also, color matching has been a problem as well... We took the design below to get printed, and asked the printer to match the color... We didn't do any ink research prior to this.. and He pretty much used a permaset mid red and added a little bit of white to lighten it up... Which still looks good, but is nowhere near what our design was. After only 5 minutes of research I found a color that matched much better, which was a permaset ROSE.
So, are my expectations too high?
Also how about pricing?
