Hello all, I just got an order from a local author/photographer for some tank top shirts and the text that he wants has some fine detail to it, I was wondering if a 156 mesh screen would be ok for this text or if i have to go with a higher mesh count, also I will be using plastsol inks Thanks in advance

a 156 should be perfect for that no need to go higher the detail should some out fine just make sure you your positives are good and you burn the image well .. u knw the usuals lol. good luck

Also depends on how fine those lines art and what color ink and what color shirts... If it is black or navy ink on light color shirts you might want to go to a 195 if you have one.. I agree the 156 shoud do the job but depending on the actual line thickness at the size you are going to print it also come into play.. Your emulsion and screen coating also... Keep printing, keep learning, good luck and may all your plastisol cure in the dryer
