Printing onto Paper & Card needs a lower mesh count as they allow thicker ink deposits and provide better coverage on porous surfaces.

Whereas for printing onto T-Shirts & Fabric, you'll need a higher mesh count because it allows for finer detail, better ink control, and improved overall print quality as the surface is smoother and more absorbent than Paper & Card.

Black EZ Snap® Shade Mesh is the Most Popular Color

There are two main reasons why black shade mesh is most popular:

The human eye sees lighter colors easier than darker ones. Because of this, your eyes will see right through a black screen and see the brighter colors outside&#; very important, if you want to maintain the view from your windows after your window shades are installed. If the exterior shade screens were white, your eyes would mostly see the white screens, making it very difficult to see through the screens. The same reason that your TV screen is black&#; so you see the color pixels of the image and not the screen itself. When viewing your shaded windows from the exterior, black sun shades generally just look better than lighter colored shades. Let&#;s say, for example, that you have a tan colored house. If you put tan shade mesh over the windows, the windows blend completely into the color of the house. This makes it look like either your house does not have windows, or that they are covered with plywood. A black shade on the same tan colored house enhances the window.
