Still Learning...


Hello and good day to you! Thanks for taking a moment to read about White Line. Once again, I will introduce myself. I'm Liz, a customer service rep here at White Line. The one that is still trying to learn everything that I possibly can. Since the last blog, a huge ice storm came thru Kentucky. White Line didn't suffer damage from this storm, except for no water for a few days. Other businesses along the street came out well also. We closed up shop for that week.

As mentioned in the previous blog, I am still learning. Yesterday, I had the pleasure of observing a 4 color process design printed. All I could say was "NEAT!!". This was a first for me all the way around. Sure, I have shirts that have a pic on them, that was digitally applied. Never gave a thought to an full color image applied using the screen printing method. Both methods are great, but to actually see a 4 color process design produced....NEAT!!!! It's a little complicated from my viewpoint, and I am sure that a lot of people would have no idea what the difference is. Digital methods use printers with special paper that can be heat pressed onto the garment, or digitally printing directly on the garment. White Line is capable of these methods, along with many others. A 4 color process is taking 4 ink colors, blending, and shading them in exactly the right way to make up an image of several colors. Of course you have to make sure that everything is set up the correct way, if not then the image, colors, and shirts will be a mess. Told ya, a wee bit complicated. Anyhow, the shirts came out beautiful.

Now I just wonder what the next new thing is going to be for me..... Can't wait!

Thanks for taking the time to drop by and check us out!
Liz
