FAQ

Common questions about dtg in Carmel

Does DTG work on dark shirts? +

Yes, but it requires a white ink underbase layer first, which most Indianapolis DTG shops handle automatically — it just adds a small amount to the per-shirt cost compared to printing on white or light fabric.

Is DTG as durable as screen printing? +

Modern DTG holds up well through normal washing (cold water, tumble dry low, inside-out) but tends to show wear sooner than screen printing under heavy, frequent washing. For a one-off event shirt it's not a concern; for daily work uniforms, embroidery or screen printing lasts longer.
