When you are screen printing a design that has overlapping or touching colors, there are different techniques you can use depending on the result you are trying to achieve. I'm comparing two common methods that I call "overlap" and "knockout." You will see the overlap method leaves you with a stripped effect in the red ink. The knockout method colors are not layered, so they soak into the shirt evenly.

How do you align your screens in a way to always make it on the mark. When ever I do multiple shirts by the second go around I can’t see through the screen to line up properly

@latishashaw3973 2 года назад

Love the video. What about the dark room or drying room or something like that for the drying process? I see other videos have a dark room.

@mrjswartzy 2 года назад

when screen printing with Vinyl, I assume I am only able to use that print for just the one day? You couldnt reuse the same vinyl after doing a cleanup could you?

@erod4real422 Год назад

How do you hold the shirt so tight into the table? Do you use adhesive spray?

@pigskinsandpigtails Год назад

Any time you are printing on a press, you want to make sure to have an adhesive on your platen. This holds the shirt/blank in place, so you can lift the screen and it will sit back down in the exact same spot. Here is the pallet adhesive I use: www.pigskinsandpigtails.com/a/pallet-tack-adhesive

LOVE seeing these! Thanks for sharing. How long do you wait for white ink to dry?

@pigskinsandpigtails 4 года назад

If it's overlapping, I would wait overnight. If you use the blockout method, just wait until it's dry to the touch (about 30 minutes). You can speed up this process with a heat gun!

@drmikecubbin 2 года назад

Thanks so much! If I am adding a second design over the first one, should I cure the first background color first and then add the second? Or can I just let the first (background) color dry a couple of days, add the second color on top, and cure them both together? Much appreciated :)

@pigskinsandpigtails 2 года назад

I would let it dry but not cure it before putting your 2nd color on top.

@drmikecubbin 2 года назад

@@pigskinsandpigtails Did exactly that and they came out perfect 👌. Also used an iron to fix the print 🤜🤛👍

@juaneduardorosas3295 3 года назад

Where did you purchase the screen printing machine and I see you place a orange dot on color does that help align? Any tips for aligning the screen straight

@pigskinsandpigtails 3 года назад

Here's the press I purchased from Amazon: amzn.to/2V0KLZb I just released an online course that shares tons of tips and tricks on how to line up the screens, how to line up the shirts on the press, how to do multi-color designs, and so much more. You can find out more about the course and enroll here: www.pigskinsandpigtails.com/screen-printing-with-a-press/

You can use any of them. I myself have a silhouette cameo.

How long do you let the ink dry before you do the second layer

@pigskinsandpigtails 4 года назад

If the design is overlapping, you want it to dry completely - which is overnight (or speed it up with a heat gun). This is the heat gun I use: amzn.to/2ZKPzmQ If the inks aren't touching, you just need the first color to be dry to the touch (so it doesn't get on the back of your next screen). This can take about 30 minutes if you let it air dry.
