  Goodmorning,

I have a couple questions about how to achieve this look.





1) How are these kind of designs printed to get the faded look. Is the print washed after printing?

2) I am assuming this kind of graphic is printed with water based ink, because the fabrics are very soft and almost sheer.

But with a mesh fine enough for photographic images, how does the ink not clog, after lets say.... 1 print?

3) What kind of mesh count would be needed to hold the detail on an image like this?

I'd like to give some of these kinds of graphics a go. But I am not sure if I can expose such fine detail on my equipment, and I might have to use something like Matsui inks which supposedly dont clog the screen even on high mess counts.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.
