[sfsoulhunter]

I know the plastisol ink is very difficult to clean, how do you clean it?

@customlogo ok so how would someone like myself (low budget) transfer the image onto the screen without using a fancy printer like the one you have in your first video

[urtpublic]

@ezonerrdub That wasn't a printer, it was a "big light". So they printed the design in black onto a paper and applied the emulsion to the screen. then they laid the screen ontop of the printed images above the light and that "burned" the image to the screen.

@ezonerrdub

You would have to purchase heat transfer material

...Hi"! ...What kind of Paint did u use for the White Base???

...im gladly wait for ur Respose THANK YOU! :)

[CustomLogo]

@JULS679

we used plastisol based ink. Union Diamond white for the underbase but usually is used as a secondary white due to puff additives.

Excellent video

[hatheru]

This is wonderful....thanks for sharing your knowledge.

[Gunnar445]

can you re-use the screens for different images?

[CustomLogo]

@Gunnar445

yes you can, you just have to reclaim them and start the process over

[nitesamba]

@CustomLogo what's it mean to "reclaim" them?

[stinknuttz]

@nitesamba its a whole process to break them down and basically make them look like brand new screens again

[rlogan2009]

@nitesamba reclaiming is the process of using a solvent to remove all the emulsion from the screen. then you would re-coat the screen with emulsion and burn for your next design.

@Gunnar445

Yes they just need to be reclaimed(cleaned) first

[serchmarc]

@CustomLogo thinner?

[ttruxel]

@expressvinyls Thanks dude. I appreciate that.

[bill984984]

@expressvinyls haha thanks!!! I do like cranking the heads up and busting ass! Makes the day go buy:)

[transformerprojetor]

why is there pink after you put green? And after you put yellow there is green.

[ttruxel]

@transformerprojetor There is a bit of ink residue on the back of my screens from printing wet on wet during the set up. I didn't print my shirt in the same order as my set up. My bad. Sorry.

[thecastman97]

im gonna make a shirt with 3 colors.. how do i do that?

[ttruxel]

@thecastman97 Just like in the video only using less screens.

[Rayzer2368]

Great video! Thanks!

[whuzak]

Dude nice video!

[ThreeDigitClothing]

good stuff. thank you.

[airmax650]

Did you use any off-contact? I noticed your screens were sticking. I have an old school press and its a bitch to adjust off-contact..it doesn't even have micro.

[ttruxel]

@airmax650 My under-base wasn't as dry as I thought. Screens stuck a little. Embarrassing for me. A little nervous. Sorry.

[braulioarechiga]

great work and great video... What do you use to thin out the ink???.... and are you using a plastisol or textile white?

[CustomLogo]

although we use a curable reducer, none are used with these inks. These are all ultra-soft inks except for the white which is a plastisol low bleed from union ink company. All inks used in this video are plastisol.

[MrMtmob]

I like your work but I have some q's what mesh count are you using? and how did you get that ink so loose I use triangle phoenix white and could never get it that way. I know youre using Union ink but does it come that loose?
