Standard Ink Colors
Color Changes
Depending on the imprint ink color and the color of the cloth being printed, the imprint ink may change color. Unfortunately bandannas cannot be printed with a white underlay first in an attempt to keep colors from being affected by the cloth color. This works on many textile products, such as T-shirts, but it does not work on bandannas.
