Decoration compatibility
VisePrint guidance derived from this garment's stated fabric and construction — not manufacturer claims.
Screen printing
Good
Prints well with a low-bleed ink system made for polyester; standard plastisol can dye-migrate.
- Dye-migration risk on polyester content — use a low-bleed or poly-specific ink system and cure at lower temperatures.
DTF transfer
Conditional
Open or slick mesh surface — adhesion varies; run a wash test first.
- High press heat can affect polyester — test temperature and dwell time before a full run.
DTG printing
Not Recommended
Polyester-dominant fabric is a poor DTG substrate; choose DTF or screen printing instead.
- Water-based DTG ink absorbs poorly into polyester and can wash out — pretreat and test.
- Non-flat mesh surface reduces DTG detail.
Embroidery
Conditional
Very light fabric can pucker under dense designs — keep stitch counts modest and stabilize well.
- Lightweight or performance knit — use a stabilizer/backing to prevent puckering.
Heat transfer
Good
Standard HTV and transfers apply well at the correct temperature for this fiber mix.
- Use low-temperature transfer material to avoid scorch or dye migration on polyester.
Sublimation
Excellent
High-polyester fabric accepts sublimation dye fully.
- Sublimation shows only on white or very light garment colors.
Decoration results can vary by equipment, ink, transfer material, garment color, and production settings. Always test before beginning a full production run.
