Vinyl printing

Vinyl printing

- [Instructor] When I think of common applications for vector based vinyl prints, I think of small runs and often shirts that will be personalized, like shirts for team sports. Small runs are less than a dozen or so shirts. If you're looking to do a single shirt or just a small number, this will likely be your best option. Some pros to using vinyl are that it's good for small runs, there are no setup fees, and the print will never fade. In fact, it might actually outlive the rest of your shirt. Some cons to using vinyl prints are that it has a heavy hand, which means you can actually feel the material pressed on the shirt. And it's a visible layer. Vinyl lays on top of the shirt so you're able to see a difference in the texture. So the blade cut vinyl is a great option for your small run, vector based, personalized print runs.
