If a reinforced substrate material is used a high hardness abrasion resistant steel may be required.
Vapor honing, sand or bead blasting and chemical etching may also be used to produce surfaces with varying degrees of gloss and appearance.
Cold slug wells should be used each time the runner makes a turn or divides.

Discharge inks will require adjustment if multiple dye lots are used and the overall discharge may appear different.
Softeners used as fabric treatments may affect how the discharge works with the garment.
You can use less than 8 percent activator-to-base ratio, but that will weaken the discharge product.
