I just printed some two color shirts for the first time and had some trouble with the colors after curing the shirts under my flash dryer. I did white text with a circle graphic that was red. The circle was to be behind the white, so when i printed the white it crossed over a few small spots of the red circle. The prints came out fine, except for the few small spots of white that crossed the red. These spots turned a yellowish color after curing. I tried different drying times with no help. Any suggestions?

Don't print white over the red

As a rule of thumb "Always print light to dark"

Thanks for the responses! So would I just need to change the art...... so the text doesnt cross over the red circle. I under stand the ''always print light to dark". I guess the colors should just be switched? Sorry if this is elementary!

Print the white first.

Don't be sorry, it's a learning process. If people didn't ask then these forums would be kind of meaningless. It's just one more thing you now have experience on. It's a good thing

is white also your under base..? ...if that is not the case i would shrink the white by 1 pixel.
also i would i would print the white first then flash it then do the red. but if you still have red / white over lap. print the red first flash it then print the white. Remember white is opaque red is transparent.

Don't print white over red.
Make your artwork without any overlap.

I agree separate your colors first and your print will pop!
