Screen Printing 101: Your Complete Guide to UNdefeated Printing on Anything

At UNdefeated Screen Printing, we're passionate about bringing your designs to life. But how does this fascinating process work? Let's dive into the world of screen printing, from initial design to the final product you hold in your hands.

1. Design Creation & Preparation:

Every UNdefeated project begins with your unique vision. Whether it's a simple logo, intricate artwork, or even a photograph, our team of experienced designers can help you refine and prepare your design for screen printing. Each color in your design will require its own separate screen, ensuring vibrant and accurate reproduction.

2. UNdefeated Screen Preparation:

We use high-quality mesh screens coated with a light-sensitive emulsion. Your design is meticulously transferred onto the screen, and exposed to UV light. This process creates a stencil of your design on the screen, ready for the next step.

3. Ink Selection at UNdefeated:

We offer a wide range of inks to suit your specific needs and preferences. Choose from durable plastisol inks for vibrant colors, eco-friendly water-based inks, discharge inks for a vintage look, metallic inks for a touch of shine, and more. Our team will help you select the perfect ink for your project and desired outcome.

4. UNdefeated Printing Process:

Our state-of-the-art printing presses ensure precision and consistency. The screen is carefully placed onto the press, and the material to be printed (substrate) is positioned underneath. Ink is poured onto the screen, and a squeegee is used to push the ink through the open areas of the stencil onto the substrate. We repeat this process for each color in your design, carefully aligning the screens to create a cohesive and UNdefeated final image.

5. Drying & Curing for Lasting Results:

After printing, the ink needs to dry and cure. Our team uses industry-leading techniques to ensure proper drying and curing, maximizing the durability and longevity of your UNdefeated prints.

6. Finishing Touches at UNdefeated:

Once the ink is cured, we apply any additional finishing touches you desire. This might include adding tags, labels, or packaging the finished products. We're committed to delivering a complete and polished UNdefeated experience.
