Plastisol is the ink most printed shirts in the world are made with. It sits on top of the fabric, covers dark colors, matches Pantone colors closely and outlasts the shirt when it is cured right. Battle Born Clothing prints plastisol in-house in Yerington, NV and cures it on a conveyor dryer. No hard minimum; 48 pieces and up is where the math works.

## What it costs

| Job | Print per piece | Screens (one-time) |
|---|---|---|
| 1 color, 1 location, light shirt | $4.34 | $20 |
| 1 color, 1 location, dark shirt (adds a flash) | $4.59 | $20 |
| 1 color front + 1 color back, light shirt | $8.68 | $40 |
| 1 color front + 1 color back, dark shirt | $9.18 | $40 |

On a $6.04 Port & Company PC61 that makes a black tee with a 1-color front and a 1-color back **$15.22 each at 48**, plus $40 in screens. Two colors on the front means two screens ($40 for the front) and a per-piece rate quoted for the job. Worked examples are on the [pricing page](/pricing/).

## The flash charge, explained

On a dark shirt we print a white underbase and flash-cure it before the top color so the color is bright instead of muddy. That is the $0.25 per flash per location. On white, natural, ash and most safety colors it is not needed, so it drops off.

## When plastisol is the right pick

- Dark shirts with light or bright art
- Blends, polyester and fleece (discharge will not work on these)
- Exact brand colors: we mix to Pantone
- Crew shirts and uniforms that get washed hundreds of times
- Any job where opacity matters more than a soft hand

## Where it is made

Serving Reno from our Yerington, Nevada shop, about 1.5 hours southeast of Reno by car. One shop, no Reno storefront; orders ship UPS or USPS ground (1 to 2 days within Nevada once they ship) or can be picked up in Yerington by appointment.

## Questions
**Can you match our brand color?** Yes. Give us a Pantone number or a vector file with the color in it. Plastisol mixes to Pantone closely; we show the mix on the proof.

**How many colors can you print?** Each ink color is a screen ($20) and its own pass. One and two colors are the usual Reno order; more is fine and quoted per job.
