Printing 2 color patches
I want to screenprint two colors on duck cloth canvas. But every time I go to flash it, the duck cloth tends to want to peel. My question is should I use a jacket hold down in order to screenprint more than one color on this type of material, do you think a Jacket hold down may stop the duck cloth from peeling? Any help would be much appreciated! Thanks guys!

Re: Printing 2 color patches
I'm not sure what you mean by peeling. If the fabric is lifting off the pallet even with flash adhesive then using a jacket hold down along with it could help. But if I recall duck cloth is a heavy cotton woven canvas type material, right?
If it is a standard duck cloth then it should print much like any cotton fabric except for the difference in weight. The surface knit texture may also be different than of a tee shirt of course.
