Screening started out using silks, while today's methods cover a wide range of materials and is an inexpensive method of promoting your business, organization or event in a variety of colors.

OVERVIEW
We start with computer aligned artwork -- ensuring multiple color work is printed correctly during the process from high-quality film positives. 

The distinguishing feature of screen printing is the preparation of the film. It is exposed on a photo-film-coated screen to intense light, leaving gaps in the photo coating where there is no image to be printed. Areas where printing should occur is washed out, permitting ink to pass through the screen where it needs to.

Depending on the quantity and type of design, a printer either manually or on an automatic press, pushes ink through each of the screens prepared, one for each color. The final step involves allowing the ink to be dried and curing it, making the print permanent.

Several factors go into providing an accurate quote for a screen print job: the material choice, the quantity needed, the number of places being printed, and the number of colors in each of these positions are the basics.
