Re: Discharge printing emulsion recommendation

Cool deal, let us know how it works out for you. Maybe you can tell us what you used and what you printed. I'm sure it would help out others. Don't forget you can use pictures and embed YouTube videos here too!

Re: Tip for removing Vinyl Heat pressed onto garment

That is awesome! Thanks for the tip. I think someone just asked me about this and I didn’t think it was possible. This will certainly help others out. How is the shirt after transfer removal? Is the fabric still in good condition and smooth?

Re: Discharge printing emulsion recommendation

Hey there in Tucson! :P I would use a well cured emulsion intended for water based inks. The key here will be making sure the emulsion is fully cured so it will not absorb chemicals and inks on press. That will be especially important with discharge inks. In the video I used a photopolymer emulsion ...

I think I might be doing a video with AccuRip and inks from Ryonet in the future. Maybe that will help but if you get to using yours first make sure to leave a post about it... :D

Hey, I wish I had at least that. I still have to get set up with a plotter system. I think it would be a great asset in my shop.

Re: Software For Creating Art For Screen Printing

I am completely new to this. I am having a problem vectorizing an image in CorelDraw X5. When I try to do it, white marks show up on the image and the image doesn't look like it should. Any suggestions? In my experience you have to use a very high resolution image to get a good vector conversion in...
