Why print black on a black shirt? If you already have the details, burn the negative of that image on your screen and save the time and materials.

@kwikwater Yes. Number of prints you can make in one setting depends on how fast your ink dries. Just be sure not to let the ink dry on your screen. That can ruin it.

@ayojillie Choose a paint (ink) that is designed for silkscreening such as Jacquard or Versatex. These paints have to right thickness and slower drying times require for silkscreening.

Yes but if the squeegee is smaller then the image on your stencil it can leave streaks along the two ends of your squeegee. We will be posting more videos soon on our photoez cbridge.com channel.

Best paint (ink) to use is water based inks designed for silkscreening. They have the correct consistancy and slow drying times ideal for silkscreening. We have Jacquard or Versatex inks available on our site at cbridge.com You can also use Speedball or even solvent based inks such as plastisols.

Good Question, I don't use tape anymore you could just hold it down. I also do my prints in full 8x10's only, these were cut to short you need a few inches on each side so you don't get paint all over the shirt. To answer your question you could buy plastic frames or mount them to wood frames if you know how to do that...eww that was alot of typing.

Just a hair dryer set to the warmest setting. Get about 1-2 inches from the ink and move in a circular motion around the print. Do this for about 2-3 minutes. Use Jacquard inks they are the best on shirts.
