We’ve got answers. Below are the most common questions we hear about screen printing, custom apparel, artwork, turnaround times, inks, and more when working with Odditees Printing in Atlanta.
Our minimum screen printing order is 24 pieces for up to a 5-color imprint. The only exception is sports uniforms with names and numbers, which may vary.
How long does an order take?
Standard turnaround is 7–10 business days after you approve your artwork — we schedule production in advance, so this timeframe is firm.
Can I request a rush order?
Yes rush orders are possible depending on workload and timeline. A 25% rush charge is added to the total.
I only have a rough idea can you help with art?
Absolutely. Our designers can turn an idea or sketch into ready-to-print artwork. We’ll always send proofs for your approval before printing.
What’s the art proof process?
After we receive your art and order details, we issue a proof within 1–2 business days. The proof shows size, Pantone colors, and placement. Review it carefully, because once approved, we print exactly what’s shown.
Ink Types & Printing Terms
What is plastisol ink?
Plastisol ink is the industry standard for screen printing. It delivers bright, opaque colors and matches Pantone shades easily. It may feel heavier and less breathable on dark garments, but it’s known for durability.
What are water-based inks?
Water-based inks soak into the fabric for a super-soft feel and great breathability. They’re more eco-friendly but can be less vibrant and aren’t ideal for deep Pantone matches. Best on lighter garments.
What is discharge printing?
Discharge inks remove the garment’s dye during printing and replace it with pigment, resulting in an ultra-soft, vintage look. Works best on 100% cotton blends may yield muted colors.
What is halftone printing?
Halftone converts smooth gradients into dots that the screen can print. This can make complex or photographic designs more affordable while retaining detail. High-resolution artwork gives the best results.
Do you offer metallic inks?
Yes metallic inks contain flakes that add sparkle. They’re best for bold designs, but not ideal for fine details. Metallic inks typically carry a small additional charge per location.
Can I customize inside tags?
Yes we offer inside-tag printing so you can add custom branding details inside your apparel.
