Water-Based Screen Printing in Phoenix, Factory-Direct
Rich color, crazy-good detail and a print that feels like part of the shirt. Soft-hand, eco-friendly water-based and discharge inks, printed on our own presses in Phoenix.
Prints you can barely feel.
Water-based ink soaks into the fabric, so shirts stay breathable and comfortable and the print lasts. Fewer replacements mean less waste, too.

01
Water-based ink
Our water-based ink gives you rich, vibrant color and sharp detail. After one wash the print melts right into the fabric: super soft, like it's always been there.
It comes in two versions: regular water-based ink for light shirts, and discharge ink for dark shirts. Both feel far softer than thick, plasticky prints.

02
Discharge ink
Discharge printing removes the shirt's original dye and replaces it with new color, right in the fabric. The result is a super soft print that doesn't feel like a print at all.
It works best on 100% cotton, but it can also be used on many cotton-poly blends and some tri-blends. The key is the dye, not just the fabric.

Color matching
Want to match your Pantone® colors? Our water-based and discharge inks get impressively close. The shirt color underneath affects the final print, especially with inks that soak into the fabric, so we test to get a match that stays true to your brand.

Get a screen printing quoteWhat does "soft hand" mean?
"Soft hand" is how a print feels when you touch it. A soft-hand print isn't stiff or plasticky; it feels smooth and light, almost part of the fabric. That's what our water-based prints are made for.
Does water-based ink work on dark shirts?
Yes. For dark garments we use discharge ink, which replaces the shirt's dye with the print color for the same soft feel. For bold color on any fabric, see high-opacity water-based ink.
