- Want to know how to cure with a Heat Press or Heat Gun, well today I'll demonstrate how you can do it for your print jobs. This is handy for people who are just starting out and don't have a Conveyor Oven nor a Flash. You may believe it's slow but I'll show how it can be actually a fast process after a little practice. Hope you enjoy.

Great job. You do very well at explaining what you do, why you do it and your previous concerns. Though you may not have the most expensive equipment or the biggest area to work, you put the effort in to make a quality product. I wish you much success.
Thank you Amigo, I really appreciate. Sorry for the late replied.
Wow, phenomenal video! Hands down one of the most informative, simple to follow videos I've seen on curing shirts!
Hey man. I’m a musician up in Nashville Tennessee that’s getting into screen printing. Thank you so much for your videos. You are an inspiration.
I'm glad my videos helped inspired in a way Amigo. Just doing my best to help new beginners.
Just what I needed to hear!!! No tengo el espacio nor the money to buy a flash dryer or a conveyor dryer… I’m trying to get started with the screen printing… I already do vinyl and sublimation, so I have the heat press… but there are jobs that are definitely better suited for screen printing, specially when the quantities are higher. Thanks so much for sharing your thoughts and your work 👍 quickly becoming one of my favorite channels 🙏 keep up the good work!!
Thank you SO much! my son and I are trying to set up our first prints, I have been working at a printers shop for a bit, and trying to sort out how to do things withour the big ovens etc. a heat gun and a heat press are perfect for us. And a great job showing exactly how to do and explaining it well done. Cheers
Glad my video help out Amigo.
I love the intro and outro with the rooster sound.
lol. Thanks. Only reason it's there and on the logo is that if you go back to the first videos, I had roosters always interrupting my videos.
Bro I’m out here about to elevate my shirt brand thanks to you, thank you for the awesome info
Awesome Amigo. And glad my content helps out.
Great work man! Loved seeing the full process.
Print looks great and your new squeegee seems awesome too!
Thank you Amigo. And yes, the squeegee is awesome.
I just started using my heat press to cure the ink today ... BUT... what I did different is that when I close the lid of the heat press after I put the shirt in there .. I keep a gap between the heating element and the ink so they never touch.. gap is about an eighth of an inch .. however .. your way is better because with mine I would have to jack up the heat to about 380 and cure it for about one minute .. I have not test washed them yet but I did the stretch test and they seem fine. I even did that with a 100 percent polyester shirt and she came out so pretty 😋
learned everything i need to know about screen printing from this guy. Huge shoutout to you man.
Awesome Amigo. Glad my videos help out. 🤘
I’ve used the heat press to do a final cure after putting it under the flash
Yea, that would help a lot to avoid staining the shirt. Better way to avoid those mishaps.
Nice work Antonio
Thank You
I do almost the Same but i do a flash dry with the heat gun cause i was afraid that heat press will get dirty of ink! (Using teflon sheet know and i thought it will get dirty too)You must replace your screen palette and use a pallete tape .Grate work my friend
Awesome. And yea, I need to add some pallet tape. Haven't added to this one.i would always tell myself, next time. Lol. Need to do it.
Happy new year my friend
@@pereveos Happy New Year Amigo.
nice video antonio great work
Thank you Amigo
Buen trabajo amigazo!
Gracias Amigo
Keep it going man great videos
Thank You.
Thank you for this video man I really appreciate it!!
glad it helped
Tengo exactamente la misma plancha y pulpo. justo hoy me voy a estrenar con la serigrafía en mi garage y necesito informarme bien cómo secar con la plancha y la pistola.
Gracias por el video. espero y tengas el éxito que deseas con tu canal e imprenta.
Gracias Amigo, y suerte con tu nuevo taller.
@@TheInkBuildUp pregunta: ¿si me está quedando tinta en el teflón, está curando apropiadamente?
is the ink curing well "if" I see ink sticking to my teflon paper?
Es normal que quede poca de tinta. Solamente le limpias cada rato.
Your the best
Thank You Amigo, I appreciate it.
With the ink and heat press how/why does it not “press through” to the back if the shirt of the ink is still wet?
Cool video , one question. Could you cure plastisol with a regular iron along with the parchment paper?
Sorry about the long replied. And no you can't unless that iron reaches a temperature of around 300-330°F. Which is unlikely for a regular household iron.
Thx for the tip. How much pressure do you use on the press? When I did it to some navy blue shirts, it made a discolored square, I’m guessing from the heat and pressure. I don’t have a heat sensor so I’m not sure how hot it actually was (although I set it to around 350°F). I was in the middle of a shirt run and my flash dryer quit on me, so I used the heat press in an emergency.
Can't really say how much pressure it was since this press doesn't have it to adjust it.
Amigo yo las haria cure todas las camisetas en la heat press por que con la heat gun es mas facil que se te puedan quemar especialmente las camisetas blancas
Así es, me da miedo con la pistola pero ya estoy estoy perdiendo tener más confianza. Pero la plancha me gusta más ya que tengo 100% confianza que se curo bien.
Does the ink not seep through to the back of the tshirt when you heat press it?
No it doesn't
Fuck yeah man fuck with your video eres humible you would be a great co worker you give lots of information mi respetos 🤘🏽
Hello ink build up ... do u have diy on your 6 colour 1station am a beginner
No I don't. I bought this press.
what was the temp & pressure on the heat press you used to cure for 12 sec?
Can't really say about the pressure but it was at 180°C (356°F) and I would give it 12 seconds but it would reach up to 200°C and I would lower the time by 2 seconds.
What shirt do you use for your print?
Yazbek, 100% Cotton
Hello I noticed that the second print you did after printing it, you put it directly into the heat press. Does this mean that you don't have to use heat gun anymore to dry it and then put it into the heat press afterwards?
Yea, you could just place it on the heat press directly after printing it. No need to dry it. It's how I do my prints now. It's a big time saving. At first, I didn't know, and I would dry it, it took forever. But give it a try to see if it works for you. I just recommend you clean your heat press after a few prints because some ink does stay on your heat press.
@@TheInkBuildUp Thanks. I would probably give it a try. I just saw one video before that you have to make sure that is dried already before heat pressing to it to avoid the paint sticking to the heat press.
Nice work broo....How hot is the heat press?
Thanks and it was at 180°C (356°F) but it would reach up to 200°C and I would lower the time by 2 seconds.
What temperature did you use to cure the ink in the heat press
It was at 180°C (356°F) and I would give it 12 seconds. But it would sometimes reach up to 200°C, and I would lower the time to 10 seconds.
AMIGO ANTONIO SALUDOS... Por que no vives en USA ya,...eres ciudadano americano?
Hola Amigo. Y, es una larga historia.
@@TheInkBuildUp ok amigo. Mis respetos, saludos y bendiciones. 👋😇👍
@@miguelcadena4422 gracias Amigo
What settings did you used?
Hi can I use heat gun to activate glue or hair dryer tack on the pallet instead of flash dryer?
haven't use that kind of adhesive so I can't really say.
Salute amigo.can I ask a question?
Go ahead Amigo

Are you using plastisol or water based inks?
I'm using plastisol ink Amigo.
Could you tell me the name of the product which you used to clean the ink?
I was using a plastisol ink remover by Easiway

PORQUE TU CANAL ES EN INGLÉS?, SI ERES MEXICANO.
Pues crecí en el estados unidos, así que aprendí inglés y el español no lo ablapa tanto. Apenas llegó 10 años aquí en México. Se me haceas fácil ablar tenemas de serigrafía en inglés que el español. Pero si me interesa hacer videos en el español en el futuro, pero si cuesta más trabajo.
