[@CatspitProductions]

Excellent, I figured this was something that needed a video. It’s a simple thing really but often overlooked. Thanks for watching and leaving a comment! ☠

[@CatspitProductions]

Thank you very much. Very happy to know you enjoy my work. I work very hard on KZbin to help people in exchange for peanuts and the many opportunities my videos have brought me. Oh and it's fun too ;) Thanks for watching and leaving a comment! ☠

[@CatspitProductions]

Very cool, I’m glad I could shed some light on that. It’s nice to know the videos are informative even to someone already printing ;) Thanks for watching and leaving a comment! ☠

[@CatspitProductions]

Thanks for the videos they help a lot. I was taught to do this and a lot of other things you talk about but never knew why I was doing them.

[@CatspitProductions]

We love your videos!!! You have helped our business overcome somethings!!!! Keep it up!!!

[@CatspitProductions]

No, same cameras. I think that might be because I am getting the lighting down pretty good. I have tweaked a few camera settings and do things more consistent now. I’m trying very hard to make the color and lighting standardized in each shot as much as I can. Thanks for noticing ;) Thanks for watching and leaving a comment! ☠

On your Catspit logo there is a triangle with numbers in each corner. What do the numbers stand for?

[@CatspitProductions]

That is the Secret Society Logo. It was fashioned after the Freemason’s logo. The numbers 20 and 07 represent the year the business was founded in 2007. The 7 represents me. Thanks for watching and leaving a comment! ☠

how do you print on polos?

[@CatspitProductions]

+luiz herrera It's the same as tee shirts but if it a is pique then it's difficult to print with good resolution and sharpness. Stick with the knitted shirt fabrics on the polo's and it's all the same. Thanks for watching. Screen Printing Equipment & Supplies - catspitscreenprintsupply.com/

[@luizherrera2575]

+CatspitProductions will the buttons intervene withe off contact?

[@CatspitProductions]

+luiz herrera Yes, if you're doing a left chest print, they will to a certain extent but we usually "4 wheel" over it pushing the screen down to the shirt. Use a small squeegee just big enough for the crest print. Some people also use a grooved pallet board that has a small router channel for the polos. And some even hang the buttons off the side of the pallet and print it that way.

If you’re looking for a plastisol stretch additive that’s exactly what it is called. Thanks for watching and leaving a comment! ☠
