COST & how to get your seps

Make sure to attach the art you want separated and include any details like shirt and max number of ink colors, imprint size etc & we'll take it from there! 

Most guys charge $15 per color, or a flat fee of around $100 (Even for when the art is already vector!). Here we're going to first assume we're doing simulated process (Photoshop seps)  and say prices generally go something like this:

1 color bitmap with halftones = $15

2 to 3 colors = $30

4 to 5 colors = $60

6 to 8 colors = $85

And that's including bitmaps if you don't have rip software for halftones

If your art is already vector and you DO have rip software for any potential halftones.

Well then pricing is more like what you see above EXCEPT cut those costs in half!

I don't supply the film. That part's on you. I supply a digital file of the separations, along with printing instruction for all the details like dot size, angle, and print order.

Turnaround is generally the next business day (M - F) but be sure to let me know if you need the seps by a certain date.  Same day rushes are often possible so don't hesitate to ask for a rush if your in a pinch on the same day it's supposed to go to press!

That depends.  If you have it in vector, then by all means, let's keep the separation vector as much as possible! In which case you would get a vector pdf that can be output onto film from Corel Draw or from illustrator. (if you need a .ai or .eps then we could do that too)

Of course some art is much better suited to be separated in photoshop, in which case

you'd get a channel separatied photoshop file. (Or bitmaps with registration if you don't have rip software)

Yes! While high end color separations for screen printing is my specialty, I also create custom vector t-shirt designs that typically range from $25 to $150, depending on complexity. Oh and by the way, that custom vector art comes with a proof and ready to go

already separated, based and trapped print files.  

When you work with me, The Seps Guy, you get all of my nearly 20 years of graphic art for screen printing experience and I don't keep secrets from my customers. I know what works and how to do it and will let you know what each job needs to turn out it's best.

So Thank You and let's blow your customer's expectations away! I'm ready when you are!
