Do the quality of shirts play a role in the longevity of the shirt? What type of t-shirt would you recommend for best quality?

[CatspitProductions]

@mdg0229 Probably so, yes. After all if the fabric is of higher quality it will fray less over time and the print will survive intact looking brilliant longer. But I have never done any testing on this. The highest quality shirts that I like to screen print on are Hanes Beefy Tees. Thanks for watching and leaving a comment! ☠

thank you for repling but for me in my county i cant find ink for screen printing i found acrylic paint but no medium gel what can i use if u can tell me any other thing cz actualy i cant order online its so expinsive

[CatspitProductions]

@86mrmicky I can’t really help there as I have never experimented with anything like you are talking about. You will have to try some things about like perhaps using a clothing dye or adding any kind of dye you can get. It sounds like I wouldn’t know what you can get either and that makes it more difficult to help. Thanks for watching & commenting! ☠

hey man tahnks for all videos and i have a quest in my place there is not a screen printing paints so can i use the latex paints its seem same for emlusion but the color gone wwith water so do u have any idea about installing color with latex paint on textille ( im using screen printing)

[CatspitProductions]

@86mrmicky You are welcome, my pleasure to help out. I’m sorry no; I would not know anything about using latex paints for screen printing. I would recommend using a water based textile ink instead. Thanks for watching & commenting! ☠

@canuckchris2010 Hey Chris, yes, that’s the limitation of standard inkjet or laser heat transfers. The polymer adhesive is transferred everywhere even where the image is not. So you either have to trim it by hand or try to find a self-weeding transfer paper you like. Thanks for watching and leaving a comment! ☠

[canuckchris2010]

hi jon, i have a quick question again! lol. you da man. with doing heat transfers, do you see the off white transfer surround. i have only done it with an iron and they had a off white looking film around the design? your help is greatly appreciated. ..........chris

[CatspitProductions]

@francistiamzon You need to use a transfer paper made for dark garments. Standard computer generated inkjet and laser heat transfers do not work on dark shirts. A home printer can’t print white ink. That’s the problem. There is no white in the image. And the transfer doesn’t have the opacity to cover on darks. Thanks for watching and leaving a comment! ☠
