Best Production Method to Get Your T-Shirts Printed

[@HustleNinjas]

I get asked this daily now so I just had to make video on it... when it comes to choosing your production method, it just depends on your wants and needs. Can you afford to print in bulk to get the low cost PER shirt? Or is it easier for you to pay a little more PER shirt, but not have to invest a lot at one time? Yes, there are ways to start in this business at a very low cost or using a print on demand service, but if you really want to take things serious, you need to invest your funds for some research and development to begin with. Side note, appreciate the support from all of you as always! Which ways are you all producing? Screen printing? Transfers? All of the above?

[@Ricardocomedian]

Im still starting out. So, clientele isn't that big. I wanted to make merch for myself. I use to order from local shops. Didn't like the quality, for the price I was paying. Was barely making any money from it. I've been doing vinyl, bought a second hand heat press. For multi colour designs, I've been using dtf transfers. They've been working out great.

[@HennaDa]

You have a very cool, calm, soothing, and happy voice.

[@PSPDany]

I think it'd be worth talking about printable heat transfer vinyl as another full-color option. This technology overcomes the limitations of regular cut vinyl and can be more versatile for not just doing t-shirts but signs as well.

[@LoyalMoneyMusic]

I’ve been watching your videos for months now i feel comfortable to go ahead and do screen print for my brand 🙏🏾

Hey just wanted to reach out to see if we could send you some of our Full color heat transfers. I know you use supacolor a lot but I think we can beat the price and we have no minimum. My wife and I @flashcustomdesigns have a store here in Cypress, which is a suburb north of Houston. Would love for you to test out our product. You can see some examples on my channel as well. Look forward to talking to you soon.

[@prolifichands]

Right now I’m doing screen printed transfers from stahls transfer express they are pretty good I want to try supacolor next since I hear so much about them. I’m also really into sublimation now I wasn’t sure if I was going to like it so I went the cheap route and converted an epson printer with cosmos ink and I love it as soon as I find an affordable building space I’m going to get the bigger sublimation equipment and try DTG as well.

[@djpoopypants4741]

Dude. Just stick with xfers. Everything else is too much cost compared to overhead

[@htfirefuze8653]

@@djpoopypants4741 it also depends on what he’s trying to do. What if he needs a custom shirt? Transfers are minimum of 6-8 and are expensive af for the minimum

Thank you Rich! Totally helps me bcuz I have 4 of those methods but I like DTG and Heat transfer the best. I have a lot of issues with my vinyl machine so it's not being used and as for my screen printing I found that the screens if left to long the image stays and u can't use them any more. This video is right on time.

[@debbieparsons1366]

Thank you so much for your videos!! Just for your viewers to understand though pricing on screen printing is going to be different based on where you're located. Some printing companies offer to include the tshirt as well. I'm pricing screen printers now in Chattanooga, TN and NOONE is doing it for $1 a color??? It also depends on the quantity. They'll do less per shirt with larger quantities. My lowest quote so far (when I provide the shirt) is $4.75/shirt for 2 colors at a quantity of 72. This printer will waive the $15/color screen fee at this quantity as well. Do your own local research! :-)

I don't have a white toner printer. Only CMYK. Will this still be useable for t shirt printing? How should I go around this? Ofcourse would like to upgraden to a white toner, but this will costs too much. Looking forward to your response! Thanks!

[@1dulceritmo]

Can you talk more about the difference more in depth on the many way to print on T-shirt ( heat screen print vs DTF Vs eco solvent ( many variations of eco solvent ) vs plastisol vs traditional screen print vs many other heat transfers ( durability and quality) There is Many opinion for heat transfer ( most used Dtf , eco solvent and screen heat transfer) this is the best and most affordable way to Star a T-shirt biz instead of buying the printer but finding a supplier not that easy

For dye sublimation, the Epson F Series starts about $2500 for 24". The other Epsons that DIYers use is the EcoTank series which start about $300. It would be nice if you covered white toner printers in the comparison.

[@CesarRavedutti]

Question: what’s the best application method in stretchy fabrics for workout clothing? Awesome content! 👊🏼

[@NekoPrints]

Depends on what you're going for. But I'd say sublimation for polyester or a vinyl like Siser Stretch for extra durability.

[@cbadblood]

Hey I was curious about two other options that I've seen; What do think the viability is for White Toner Printers (ownership)? And what are your thoughts on Plastisol transfers?

[@HustleNinjas]

I made well over my money back on a white toner printer, but the quality is not the greatest. Cool for a generic t-shirt print; mother's day shirt, birthday shirt, etc., but not good enough quality for a brand. Plastisol transfers are good, they crack a bit, but if you buy the stretch ones, they last a bit longer.

[@leonmakest-shirts]

you forgot about dtf printing. My go to method nowadays.

[@russelljones9216]

What printer so w do you have?

Make it the quality better and last longer.. Some people don't see a difference so they don't do it, or the difference just isn't significant enough for the time you spend doing it.

Hello rich, good content! I appreciate it!

Would that be a mask over the image thats causing that or Would that be something to modify in the software itself or the machine? I would appreciate your feedback!

How come you didn't add the oki white toner printer? You have talk wonders about it, so why did you exclude it?

Because I simply forgot, but to be fair I also forgot to mention dtf printing. The quality for white toner is not the greatest. White toner printer is cool for a generic t-shirt print; mother's day shirt, birthday shirt, etc., but not good enough quality for a brand.
