DISCHARGE PRINTING Discharge printing is the best technique for producing a buttery soft print on dark fabrics. It removes the dye from the shirt where your artwork will be printed and replaces it with a water based ink in one fell swoop.
The print will be softer because once the fabric is discharged, it creates a nice white surface for your colour to sit on without having to add an extra layer of ink.
The catch? You have to print on 100% cotton to use a discharge print, and Pantone colours can’t be guaranteed as the colour of the shirt can affect the final print result. There is usually an added cost for discharge prints.
