Just found out capillary films existed from this video! Thanks bud!

@FoamSquatch 3 года назад

I went to school for Lithography printing essentially before everything went digital. Ended up getting a job in a screen shop that did cards. I worked mostly pre and post production. I am in a Band and wanted to take over making our merch to save some money. Lucked into a good deal on some equipment and came to youtube to refresh my brain piece on the processes. I have to say, I have watched quite a few different T Shirt shop youtubes but this is by far the best. So much good info, so much trial and error caught on film, and your fucking attitude is 100% in line with my group of friends so I feel a connection. So essentially what I am saying, this content is making me feel confident in just doing this shit.

Bro! Thanks alot for all the tips, yesterday I did my first payed job for a friends. Some paper kraft bags for his store, I used red water based ink. Keep up with the videos. Cheers! I counted 4 agitates

@Tim.McElheny 4 года назад

Great tip about drenching the tape so it doesn’t stick to the garbage bag. I used paper bags from the grocery store to throw my tape away and they stick less to the paper. I’m using Franmar Bean-E-Doo for an ink degradent and CCI EnvironStrip for emulsion remover. The EnvironStrip has had zero issues reclaiming several emulsions I was testing. I have been testing CCI VPR, Chromaline ChromaBlue, Chromaline ChromaLime, and my local supplier, Atlas Screen Supply, Orangeworks. All of them reclaimed with ease using EnvironStrip and its non hazardous. And I’m using CCI The Pink Stuff as my De-Hazer/De-Greaser

@Worstwishesracing 4 года назад

If you can’t afford a more expensive pressure washer, the green one that harbor freight sells works really well. You can get it for about $80. Sometimes it takes work to get really hard emulsion off, but works waaaaay better than just a hose and nozzle.

@ThePrintLife 4 года назад

The cheaoy ones are all the same, they work for awhile and eventually bust. But I agree go cheap on your first one then you can upgrade when the time comes.

@patricknormile9777 3 года назад

I use soy based press wash but still use easyway as well. I do all of my reclaiming and degreasing outside as we don’t have a washout booth yet. It does help with the chemical smell and splash back. One hack I do use is I place the screens on two sawhorses, and they have notches in the top that screens fit satisfyingly well into.

@Dtag1971 4 года назад

Use to recliam in the tub.... with the shower head.... i had to scrub like hell an then wash out. It took me an eternity to reclaim. And when i messed up... temper.....temper. lol. Good tips on this vid.

"just set it on the floor or whatever, I don't give a shit" haha love your realness dude. p.s. I use sgreen chemicals from ryonet. the "sgreen stuff" is a dehazer/degreaser gel that works well and doesnt ruin mesh no matter how long it stays on. I think all the sgreen line is better for you and the enviroment as well.

@nightshifthoops 4 года назад

Hey Cam have you tried the Ryonet emulsion remover? That’s stuff works like magic! It’s literally the best stencil remover out there. I’ll go as far as to say you don’t even need a power wash or hard pressure water to remove the stencil off the screen .

@ThePrintLife 4 года назад

No I have not tried their stuff, it all mostly the same in my opinion, my recommendation is to support your local supplier when possible.

@natalievelazquez4527 4 года назад

I just got myself one of those pressure washers. Would you be able to make a video showing us how to hook it up?

@TheInkBuildUp 4 года назад

Great video. Man, I really need to get those chemicals to reclaim. I live in a small city in southern Mexico, they don't sell screen printing chemicals. We have to rely on Gasoline to remove ink and bleach to reclaim. It works but takes a lot bit longer than using those chemicals you're using. They sell Easiway products in Mexico City. Still need to save up so I can get a hold of them. Will make reclaiming a lot smoother.

Oh yes I remember trying bleach when I first started, it basically didnt work for me.

Hey mate. Obviously the dip tanks that made a name a few years back are now being used for water storage. I use a product called american eagle to dehaze and degrease it comes as a paste and is caustic asf we dilute with water to 50% very strong still.

@ThePrintLife 4 года назад

Nice thanks for the tip, do you always degrease the mesh?

@Covidwasalie 4 года назад

@@ThePrintLife Yea mate the American eagle does the removing of the ghost image or stain and also degreases screen at same time allow to fully dry ready to coat. Franmar is a new eco friendly range their haze remover is poo ever other product like your ink removers and emulsion are ok.

Newbie to your channel Cam. Awesome stuff - thank you. I appreciate your content and time. I know it takes a lot. Just letting you know that your Amazon store website is NOT SECURE with https and you should look into that further. I'd love to support you and what you do but you might want to get that fixed ASAP to avoid a loss of potential income to your store. I am looking into SS as a side hustle to my branded props business. I found you on RU-vid. You have been most helpful so far. Again I appreciate it and look forward to supporting you.

@kennuimuffins2426 4 года назад

Awesome stuff. Subscribed a while back even though I don't do screenprinting or plan to. What are your thoughts on (high quality) heat transfers? I've seen a lot of conflicting info but that's probably because both screenprints and transfers can vary wildly in quality.

@kingusmaximus 4 года назад

Hey Cam - Love your videos - Few questions about the capillary film...It's very expensive compared to emulsion from what I've found so far, is this really a profitable method? is there a time you prefer to use it over emulsion? Notice any difference in quality? Hope to hear back! Thanks

@ThePrintLife 4 года назад

It is way more expensive, I wish manufacturers would get the cost down abit, but the benifits are huge, 1 less step so there is time savings, it dries faster, produces cleaner lines, way less pinholes....

@kynaification 3 года назад

I love your channel! You have taught me a lot! I was wondering if you can answer some questions? After cleaning my screen with the press wash I noticed the ink would not properly pass through the screen anymore? You have any ideas why that may happen? Maybe too much press wash or I have to rinse it after with water to make sure its no presswash on the screen? also do you have to clean the ink off the screen after every use? Even if you are using the same color? I noticed that when I left my ink on the screen for some days it hardened on the screen and fresh ink would not pass through properly so I had to clean the screen with press wash even though I was using the same color :(

@gearjammermedia4220 3 года назад

I wouldn't leave ink on the screen for more then a day just to be safe since its easy to clean off...if you are leaving it on tho I'd imagine flooding the screen with ink is a safe way to go just to keep air off of it. Are you sure you have press wash or is it just a general plastisol ink cleaner because there is a difference. The general ink cleaner can leave a film on the screen...was an issue for us as we didn't know there was a difference 🤣
