Answer 1

the most common is silk screen prints.

its simple, just a fine silk screen with the design imprinted on it. the screen is first coated with a layer of gel that will harden when exposed to light. the design to be printed on the shirt is printed in black on clear acetate and placed over the screen, so when exposed to light, the gel beneath will stay in its current state, and is washed away.

the screen is positioned on the shirt, and the ink is spread on with a squeegee, then scraped off. when the screen is lifted, the design is printed on the shirt.

for multi-color prints, each color gets a different screen, with a different section of the design printed on the acetate. the colors are put on in layers, being flash heated to dry the ink between each color being added.

the same method is used commercially, just automated and on a large scale.
