special effects clear and glow in the dark screen printing

I print a 2 color design on a manual press with a special effects clear gel topcoat and then use the same screens to print a 2 color phosphorescent (glow) design. top screen used for gel and glow ink was on an 86 mesh screen, under colors on 155's

@GuwiePrinting .. M&R!!! the M&R Sidewinder is the best manual press out there hands down... but a basic Hopkins beats the hell outta a vastex any day!

I quit my day job years back once I had a good sized client list and took out a second mortgage to buy equipment.. BUT, my business failed last year and I had to close the doors.. this video here is in the shop I manage now.. economy's a bitch..

get video but why are you flashing between the first and second colors? I figure normally that would be printed wet on wet woundn't it?

by the way nice shop i love the auto flash!

the first color is trapped under the stroke by about 1 point for easy registration! Ifthe colors were butted up I would not have flashed it until after the first 2 colors.. thanks for watching!
