Hi guys...is there such a thing as 4 color process when printing shirts? I have a full color design that I want to have screened on the back of my teams bowling shirts and the local screen printer wants to charge me for 8 colors (8 screens @ $21 a screen).

The alternative might be to consider a digital print on a thermoflex base and heat-press it on, Terry, but what Glenn says is true.
(Don't try & put process yellow over anything other than white-complete waste of time!)

It's on a black shirt..oh well, heat transfers it is. I really didn't want to do that.

Find someone who does DTG (direct to garment printing) and has a stable reputation. Unlimited colors and you're not paying a per screen setup fee. The newer machines do a really nice job and if the company follows all the pre and post treatment procedures, they will hold up well.
