In this video I'll print a few black cotton shirts with white water-based discharge ink. I couldn't find a lot of videos on this, it seems almost everyone is using plastisol, so I decided to make one. These are printed with two strokes, 160 mesh screen on 100% cotton t-shirts for a guy's atv weekend getaway.
Thanks for watching.

If you print with discharge ink and have any tips or tricks, leave them in the comments.

A t-shirt for a 'Testicle Festival' printed with white discharge ink. Perfect.

Do you think a lot of printers actually wash the shirts when using discharge? Great video by the way you have a great set up

@RichardThompsonCA Год назад

I'm not sure, I don't know any other printers 😄. It might be different with plasticharge vs water based discharge. I don't use plastisol so I can't say. Also an average shop who is printing a large quantity of the same design for a client would probably just tell them to wash before wearing. I'm only printing my designs for my brand so I will definitely wash them, I don't want people complaining because they got a rash or something 😄

Rich what’s your opinion on the thermal mesh stencil makers like Riso Goccopro Printers like the 100, QS200, and QS2536?

@RichardThompsonCA Год назад

I've only seen a couple videos of people using them. I don't get it. Looks like a lot of work, having to stretch a new screen every time, what If you've got a 10 color press? There may be benefits I'm not seeing but it just looks like a much harder way to make screens. If you have the money I think a CTS or similar is the way to go, but only if you have the volume.

@bigdap100 Год назад

@@RichardThompsonCA lol, the Goccopro printers are a CTS technology in that it transfers a digital image directly into a thermal mesh vs the analog method of curing an emulsion using an already created image. I’d love to see you demo the technology, having a screen burned and sent to you wouldn’t cost much.

@RichardThompsonCA Год назад

@@bigdap100 But what happens when you're done with the screen? Do you have to cut it out and remesh it, or can you wash it out with emulsion remover? The videos I watched weren't really clear on that part. I only print small quantities of shirts, so it seems like an awful lot of equipment and expense.

@bigdap100 Год назад

@@RichardThompsonCA the screens are disposable...I use a Goccopro100 and a 120 mesh that stretches to about 12x22 on a reusable high tension frame. I’m literally brand new to screen printing so I can’t tell you much with absolute certainty but I would be thrilled to get your input on this process and how it could be improved. I could sponsor a few screens for you if you’re interested.

@bigdap100 Год назад

@@RichardThompsonCA a 12 X 22 screen of 120 mesh is around $8.00. You can discard it when you’re done or keep it if you clean it and keep dust off of it.
