can you please say at what temperature these t-shirts shoul be washed in washing-mashine? or they shouldn't be washed at all?))

Looks like YouTube cut off part of my reply below, here is the rest...

You could technically burn the shirt if you iron in one spot for too long but in my experience you can keep the iron in one spot for quite some time.

As for washing them, many suggest washing in cold water on gentle cycle but I just throw mine in with all the other laundry. As long as you heat set them hot enough they won't fade for a long time. No fixative is needed.

I don't know what paint the artist is using in this video but to answer all the questions, yes you use a textile paint like createx. Then you heat set it with a heat press or iron.

I airbrush as a hobby so I don't have a heat press. I just iron the shirt with a piece of parchment paper between the iron and paint. Set the iron on it's hottest setting and iron away. You need to get the paint really hot if you want it to be permanent. It took me a few tries to get a feel of how hot it needs to be

Are you using Createx? How do you seal the paint? Are you heat sealing or using a fixative? Inquiring minds want to know!!!! 8~O

sickening

like how you blend the different colors together into the skulls

[MultiAirbrusher]

nice done work

[theartist53]

Nice work!  How are you sealing the paint to the shirt? Are you using Createx? Do you heat set or use a fixative of some sort for textile?

[ewaldoasm]

cool!

[grubashu]

crazy in the coconut.

[Mitraeltheprophet]

are these t-shirts washable i mean without destroying the art? and do you use any special ink for that or just standart?
