How can I distress screen printing?
Any tips on distressing the screen print? I used to have this sweatshirt I had worn for years and the screen printing on it had worn and distressed, well through a snafu it was lost recently. Replaced it with a new one same design but would like to get the same look without waiting till 2013 or so. Its solid black cotton sweatshirt with white screen printing.
Well of course it's easier to get the distressed look right when you print it. But what you can do is just Wash and Dry it many times, every time you run a load of laundry put it in there, that more than anything is what will give it a "worn" look. However, The ink used is called plastisol, and is essentially a liquid plastic that needs to be brought to roughly 330 degrees F to be fully "cured." At this point it will be a essentially a thin, solid sheet of plastic laid on top of the shirt. If it is cured properly the actual shirt material may begin to deteriorate before the ink gets too distressed.
