@christinamedina9553 3 года назад

I had shirts printed with plastisol inks on gildan ultra cotton & alstyle 1301, both started cracking after 2 washes, im now looking into 1701, would water based be good?

@ITAKClothing 3 года назад

2 washes is too quick to see cracks on the shirts. I've used alstyle 1301 before and I didn't see any cracks for awhile (not sure how many washes) but I never had complaints from my customers. I suggest shop around to different screen printers coz that might be the problem.

@Heymandini 3 года назад

When your using water based ink, do you recommend placing somethjng like parchment paper inside the garment in case it sinks through?

@ITAKClothing 3 года назад

Not necessary. Usually when screen printers use water based ink, it'll depend what time of screen mesh they use and how many pass they do. They usually flash heat right away before curing as well.

@ITAKClothing 3 года назад

You probably can, but I wouldn't advise it.

@iamroberty 3 месяца назад

If a print cracks when you stretch it it's because the ink wasn't cured enough, either their dryer was set too low or it went through too fast.

@dimension8172 3 года назад

Can I use plastisol ink on Dri-fit material?

@ITAKClothing 2 года назад

Technically yes. But it won't last very long since dri fit material are usually polyester and spandex. So it's really not going to attach to the garment. Ask your screen printer if they can do this for you.

@Krthaspecialist 2 года назад

What brand do you recommend for best quality results or doe that depend on the machine?

@ITAKClothing 2 года назад

There's really a lot of factors. The brand ink you're using, the person who's doing it, the mesh screen etc. If a screen printer is doing the printing for you, ask the shop what ink they are using. Then you can research the reviews.

@litsssavila5372 3 года назад

Sir in printing shirt is it okay to coat another layer? For example 1coating and 2nd coating. Or always 1 only. Thank you

@ITAKClothing 3 года назад

If you mean a pass thru, then it really depends on you. Some printers usually do two passes, but sometimes if the ink is good enough, one pass should be enough.

@babymarcus123 3 года назад

@iankiplangat3306 3 года назад

is it possible to print another layer on top of your initial print using plastisol or water based , and which one is the best

@ITAKClothing 3 года назад

I dont think you can print another layer on top of an existing layer especially if it's already cured, using plastisol ink. Since plastisol just sits on top of the garment, there's a chance the colors will bleed and mix it. There's probably a better chance with water based ink, but I still wouldn't advise it since I never done it or heard about someone else doing it.

@rahuldevroy4724 3 года назад

Can we create vibrant finish product with water based ink? great video by the way

@ITAKClothing 3 года назад

I dont think you'll get vibrant colors using water based ink. It will give you that faded vintage look. If you want to have the colors really pop out, use a plastisol ink. If you're worried about fading or cracking, check the brand of your ink, the brand of the shirt, what kind of fabric it is, and the heat on your press.

You can go to any screen printer and ask, but just to let you know, it can get really expensive since it's a small unit to the point it's not worth it. You can try blankstyle.com but it will be pricey

Dont really understand..because shirts begin to fade after a few washes anyway..so wuts the point in great print that doesnt fade or crack if the shirts gonna lose color anyway..most prints always outlast the color of a shirt In my experience...anyway still great info

@ITAKClothing 3 года назад

This actually depends on the quality of the shirts. Some brands have different types of dyes they used on their shirts, so some will be fading much faster than the design itself.

@mohdabrar2839 3 года назад

@ITAKClothing 3 года назад

Plastisol and water based are great. It really depends on what outcome you want. Nowadays, plastisol ink are screen printed on heat transfer papers as well, so if you want to use a heat press, you can. What im saying is in overtime, the plastisol ink will start to crack due to many washes since its settled on the surface of the shirt. Water based inks seeps in the shirt.

@aldo-228 3 года назад

I think your description of plasol ink cracking is a little misleading..because if it's cracking with regular washing you are doing something wrong..plastol inks when used correctly will last basically for the life of the shirt.

@ITAKClothing 3 года назад

Plastisol will crack in a matter of time.. it depends on the screen printer and the ink they used.. on how long it will last.. also depends on the user on how they wash it.. but it will crack since it's in the surface of the garment..

@@ITAKClothing No it doesnt! Plastisol ink cracks if they are not properly cured at the right temperature. Usually it gets cured at 160 degree centigrade for 20-30 seconds on a conveyor dryer or heat press machine.
