Use a vinyl cutter and heat press for customization jobs and low volume orders (1-30). More than 30 shirts or graphics with more than 2 or 3 colors, go with screen printing. If you don't have a screen printer, get a local screen printer to do the job. If you price your shirts right, you can still make money and you don't have to do anything. NOTE: Screen printers require generally require Adobe Illustrator files for making film positives. If you buy your shirts wholesale, buy your shirts and deliver them to the screen printer. This is the best way to go unless you get a lot of larger orders (50-?). If that is the case, get you're own screen printing setup and learn to screen print or partner with a local screen printer. Getting setup in Screen printing is fairly expensive and the there is a steep learning curve.
Douglas Mckinney Thanks for the advice. Can you recommend a T-shirt wholesaler? I thought I had one that sold shirts at a good price, but when I was ready to check out I got a pop-up message saying it was not a secure site (even though I saw the lock at the top of my screen when I opened the website). I appreciate your direction.
keep in mind guys when screen printing on polyester shirts use Low Bleed or else you might get dye migration from the shirt..ex. Red shirts printed with White ink might turn pinkish.. takes days to show up, best bet if you starting out stick with 100% cotton shirts until you educate yourself on poly shirts, proper ink and drying times, I learned the hard way$$$
actually its less expensive for heat transfer than it is with screen printing. Especially if you're using cotton soft printing which is basically screen printed transfers, you can fit multiple designs onto a single sheet and be printing at 3 times the rate as screen printing and the quality is comparable.
thank you Reyes, i started watching your videos 2 days ago and i bought all i needed to start my t-shirt and car sticker business. thanks for your advice and tips your the best !!!
Dude, I absolutely love watching your videos. Your personality is infectious lol. Question for you... REYES, what looks better and last longer, heat press or screen printing? Thanks bro!
Although screen printing may be harder to get set up , I would much rather prefer a shirt with paint over a plastic over my shirt. Over the summer , the vinyl gets so hot and uncomfortable 😣
I actually love vinyl and a cutter for making shirts. I've had vinyl on shirts that have lasted for years looking and feeling good. Screen printing is great too but I went with vinyl and a heat press because it was cheaper to start. I've used custom screenprinted designs and found the quality just isnt good. Would love to get a screen print setup though.
I believe screen printing is best because it's ink the sinks into the shirt, while the vinyl is still there on top of the shirt so after many washes, the vinyl can start to peel off.
@@swtfairy01 I believe those designs that flake off are just iron on designs. Vinyl/heat transfers are slighlty different. It melts a clear layer over the image preventing any fading and cracks. Basically you get what you pay for scenario.
HTV won't fade but the durability will vary depending on the type of vinyl you use and if you've applied it correctly. Ex. Glitter vinyl will crack, peel, and endure less washes than standard vinyl. Hang drying helps w/ longevity too
loved all the info. BUT it was a lot of advertising. maybe stretch it out over more vidz. I was just a little confused. ALL IN ALL I was satisfied with the info. Thanks friend
Am I the only one that thinks heat pressed designs look better than screen print? I like how the ink sits on top of the shirt with very vibrant colors.
But Rayes do you never screen print on plastic sheet so you can youse them as heat transfare? if there is a company there need 10 shirt and you know they are comming back?
Screen printing is messy. My vinyl cut designs are very detailed but worth it. The weeding parts sucks ass. But i now i have a white toner printer that shuts everything thing down 😎
shout out to you brother, love your channel. Im starting my own clothing brand named Misfortune & i was gonna invest in a vinyl cutter and heat pressss buuuuut ima get a screen printer

true....or use poly ink and run your dryer on a lower temp will also help with the ink turning colors
Thanks for the knowledge my dude.
This is very helpful my ole lady makes shirts . I didn’t know what the screen printing machine was call 💯
I am trying to learn this stuff, and this video helped a lot. Thank you for your knowledge.

Hey Reyes. Love your smile and your personality. Keep doing what you do!
Good video, but you didn't mention that with vinyl tou can do metallics and sparkle that you can't do with ink, which can sell for a higher premium
I only take ur advice cause ur the only mexican printer i can find haha.good stuff bro.helped me alot🙏

Exactly
screen vs vinyl when you wash it. What lasts longer?
Screen printed
How about the after quality? Which one is better with washing & stuff?
Screen Printing
I actually love vinyl and a cutter for making shirts. I've had vinyl on shirts that have lasted for years looking and feeling good. Screen printing is great too but I went with vinyl and a heat press because it was cheaper to start. I've used custom screenprinted designs and found the quality just isnt good. Would love to get a screen print setup though.
but if u have different colours like a pic u can't use vinyl right?
@@ychaf7790 You can u just use mor vinyl and do the colors by layers …
hey i have a question. would u recomend vinyl or screenprinting for shirts that never wear off. i'd be really happy if u answered
I believe screen printing is best because it's ink the sinks into the shirt, while the vinyl is still there on top of the shirt so after many washes, the vinyl can start to peel off.
@@swtfairy01 thanks a lot :)

I’ve been also looking into sublimation. Great video
What last longer In a shirt before fading screen print or HTV?
WOKEJOHNNY HTV never fades.
Htv doesn't fade but it can peel over time
prepi hernandez you’re exactly right :)
HTV peels after like 6 or 7 washes.
HTV won't fade but the durability will vary depending on the type of vinyl you use and if you've applied it correctly. Ex. Glitter vinyl will crack, peel, and endure less washes than standard vinyl. Hang drying helps w/ longevity too
I just subscribed. I have a question. I’m trying to make like good material clothes for myself. The question is, which one does Supreme do?
I’m going to starting my business but I don’t know what machine buy and good price
You did not answer all the questions. So why can't eat orange and have a bath at the same time?
Best heat press to get ? Deciding on 15x15 or 16x20 ! Brands as well?

You don't need a screen printing machine to do large orders with a heat press and you don't use heat vinyl on those orders.
What do you recommend then? Looking for easy, quick methods. lol.
I like your swagge ❤❤❤❤❤❤
