Printing Process:

  1. Preparing Screens: Coat the chosen screen mesh with emulsion and allow it to dry completely before exposing the design onto the screen.
  2. Setting Up the Printing Station: Secure the prepared screens onto the printing press and align them according to the desired print placement on the garment.
