CAN YOU CREATE AN ORIGINAL DESIGN BASED ON MY IDEA?

Yes! Our design rate starts @ $75/hour and is based on complexity of your idea.
All designs created by MFG Merch. are the property of MFG Merch unless client purchases full
rights & ownership of the custom design in additional to the artwork creation fee.

WHAT IS PRINT READY ARTWORK?

– We classify print ready artwork as art submitted in vector format (.ai, .eps, .svg or .pdf),
300dpi and sized to print with all text + strokes outlined.
– If you are submitting a raster image or Photoshop (.png, .psd or .ti) then the artwork
needs to have a transparent background with a minimum resolution of 300dpi but no
bigger than 600dpi. Any resolution lower than 300dpi will produce a grainy image in most cases.
– Multicolor artwork should be separated by layers with pantones indicated.
– Files not submitted in the listed formats above may incur an additional art fee.

WHAT IF MY ARTWORK IS NOT PRINT READY?

We want to provide a perfect product to you and with screenprint that starts with your artwork.
We allow 30 minutes to prep your files for production. Prep and adjustments that exceed
30 minutes are subject to our design rate of $75 an hour. When you submit your art we will notify
you of any additional charges. File preparation done by MFG Merch. are the property of MFG Merch.

WHAT IS THE 3% SPOILAGE POLICY?

Because creating custom garments is not an exact science, there can be small issues due to
production, vendor issues or random acts of God. If 3% or less of your order is misprinted we
will refund the difference to you and edit your final invoice. If more than 3% of your order is
misprinted then we will reprint the missing amount at no additional cost.

WHAT IS THE PHOTO STRIKEOFF PROCESS?

When a photo strikeoff is requested we will notify the client of the date & a time window of
scheduled production. Once confirmed we will take a photo of the design while on press
and send to the client for immediate approval.

Client’s can make ONE minor adjustment to the placement + color (1 color in a multicolor job) during this time.

If a major adjustment is requested or we do not get a response within 10 minutes then the job will rescheduled at our earliest convenience. Rescheduling may incur additional set-up fees.

CAN I RETURN MY GARMENTS?

If your order does not match the specifications from your approved digital mockup then we
will happily reprint the order. Contact the account representative who processed your order
and we’ll get you taken care of!
