Things other than t-shirts we can print on?

Post by Art_Maverick »

Hello All,
I'm trying to expand our options and grow in this crazy economy. What are some other items besides t-shirts, hoodies, and pants that we can print on? I was reading about tea or kitchen towels? Does anyone have any suggestions?
Thanks,
Ken

Koozies - never thought about that. Would you use a standard t-shirt ink with stretch in it?

PSA Vinyl - Are you referring to banners? Is that something that can be done for less than an offset printer could with a digital vinyl printer?

Thanks,
Ken

Koozies just stright plastisol on a pocket platten. PSA vinyl would be like bumper stickers. I haven't screened a banner in many years, I have a solvent digital printer.

Good Morning from Southern California,
I talked with a mobile auto detail guy yesterday. We were talking about options for promoting his business. The idea of screen printed chamois popped up. Plastisol would be out of the question, but would waterbased inks or discharged waterbased inks work? I thought they could leave one of the used chamois folded on the dash of the car for advertisement purposes when they were done. That could in turn be written off as advertising. Any thoughts on this? Any special treatments necessary?
