I just did a print job for 65 total hoodies with a front and back print. 35 hoodies had white ink and the other 30 had black ink, so I had to do a color change after the white.
The dry stencil's held up very well for the job! There was a total of 260 passes of ink through the stencil, not including test prints to make sure all was well, which is a lot and some may be concerned that the dry stencil will not hold up. THEY ARE WRONG! You do have to watch for pin holes that will show up during the print run, I just take a small piece of clear tape to plug it up to not have to wat for the block out to dry. I am confident I could have printed another 65 hoodies with the same screens. Clean up for a color change is very difficult and you have to be careful what you use so you do not break down the stencil. I usually use RhinoTech's PWG305 I believe it is, their version of Bean-e-doo, but much better! I did have some of the white ink mix with the black but it was not enough to make a difference. You can use some creative taping off of the screen to assist in getting the ink off but I was in a hurry.

Re: Review: Dry Stencil Print Job
I see you are having great success with the dry stencil so maybe you can tell me what I am doing wrong. Ihave had zero luck on getting the first process to work. I bought a new brother laser printer, I have tryed three different heat presses and still cant get the adhesive sheet to apply to the design correctly. I have tryed the different times and pressure. Please help. If you can email me direction for the process you use. Thanks, Rick
