Thank you . Really needed to view this encouraging vid. FEARNOT CRP5
I typically have good results with normal size screens. However, there are some very large screens I make (anywhere from 44.5"x47" to 36"x78"), and coating them is a nightmare, usually resulting in bad coats. Do you have any advice on that?
When you recommend coating screens on both sides are you only referring to Tees? Ive been to a lot of studios printing on paper and they all only coat 1 side, and thats using azacol z1 as well which i know you do.
With any screen printing. Especially with paper. The emulsion needs to be held on both sides of the mesh otherwise details will be lost when emulsion isn’t able to reach over the voids in the mesh. A shared studio space might be trying to save money with emulsion… give it a go with once both sides on half the screen and once on the other half with some tiny details 🤓
What do you use to stick on a scotch bright onto a brush handle
Hey, I am not 100% sure what you are asking about?
I am a newer printer and I have found that red plastisol is a nightmare.
1 coat on each side will be enough for most types of printing, perhaps for longer printing runs 2 coats on each would serve better. printing on automatic presses does create more wear on the stencil with increased squeegee pressure.
That is great insight, thanks Michael.
@@squeegeeandink Enjoy watching your videos, keep up the good work. :)
I've been to many open access studios and ive never seen anyone coating both sides of a screen. Is it for Tees only?
but saying that i always seem to get pin holes i have to fill. You make it look so easy. I'm covered in emulsion and scraping the edges with a credit card
I was too at first. I did my first few screens in complete darkness and they were a mess! haha
