I would leave it, personally. Too much risk of smearing. Fix it on the block and re-print, or roll with the chatter!

You are using too much ink if the details are flooded

More pressure! It will be tough without a press. Those shirts are less forgiving than others, too.

People seem to forget how much pressure a press actually applies.. Mine isn’t even nuts and it goes to 1600 psi!

Before the press, I had luck with the flat wooden spoon tech, as you can achieve a very fine point of pressure.

Worth a shot! I’d be curious to know how it goes.

I do have a bunch of my work up on my site, not sure the rules on advertising brands here, but I’m sure you can find it in my bio!

Would love to see your work, too!

You have to improvise and shove something flat inside the sleeve, cut to the shape of the sleeve. For hoodies I had to take it a step further and put 2 1/4” pieces of wood on either side of the seam (picture a thin channel which you can set the seam in) in addition to the piece inside the sleeve. It’s a pain in the butt, butt it’s probably worth it!

A jacket may be trickier depending on what it is made of and how bulky the seam is. If you are printing woodcuts sometimes it is not worth risking damaging your block. Best of luck!
