Re: Screen printing on moisture wicking clothing

Good tips by Dip.Schlitz. I also suggest lowering your off contact. You don't want a lot of off contact as you indicated.

Thought I'd share a quick video clip showing that 2-sided dog tags can be done with SinglePrint.

Re: Plastisol?

You could use a heat gun along with a temp gun. It'd be time consuming though. Or use the temp gun to flash it then final cure on a heat press. Again, not the ideal way.

Re: Saati textil pv perfect exposure time

I can't speak to your exposure question. But, I usually use a pressure washer, fanned out and a couple feet away from screen, to washout my screens. I rarely lose dots.

Re: Screen printing on moisture wicking clothing

Are you using a poly ink? Regular plastisol ink allows dye migration. Some poly plastisol flashes/cures at a lower temp which helps reduce migration.

Telling people to stay away from a brand portrays a knock on that brand. I agree though that it depends on your intent as to what you should buy. If I was in the sign making business, cutting for hours a day, then I would definitely go with Roland, Graphtec of Copam. But I'm sure some people have co...
