Dye Sublimation is a relatively new printing technique that allows us      to print full color images on a wide array of items such as t-shirts, flags      mouse pads, and even ceramic tiles. Well how does it work? Solid dye      particles are converted into a gas using heat and pressure then are      forced to bond with the material they are dyeing and converted back to a      solid.         HOW DOES THIS DIFFER FROM SCREEN PRINTING?                   First off with Dye Sublimation the dye is actually absorbed into the      material as opposed to ink sitting on top of the material as with screen      printing. Because of this only light colored shirts can be used to Dye      Sublimate. Think of it like this, if you add green dye to black paint you      will still have black paint. The second major difference between the two      methods is Dye Sublimation must be done on material that contains at      least 50% polyester. The higher the polyester content the more vivid the      images. The third and final major difference is the ability to print not in      four or six color as with screen printing, but FULL COLOR. Imagine the      possibilities of being able to print full color photo quality images onto      t-shirts. And with no screens means NO SCREEN CHARGES and NO      MINIMUM!!           Please contact us today to discuss your printing needs and see which      solution best suits you!!!
