Newbie Needs help desperately
Posted: Thu Jun 19, 2014 2:05 am
Hey
Just wanna say great videos and keep up the good work.
I have soooooo many questions it's unreal but i'll keep it short for the moment, I'm a complete newbie and I've watched so many videos I think my brain is fried and I'm starting to over think things.
OK, coating screens
When I coat my screens with emulsion, i'm getting streaks down each side, I think it's going over the edge, doe this mean i'm tilting my screen too much or is there something else i should be doing?
Burning screens
How do I line the graphics up to the screen? is there certain distances that a crest meeds to be from the top and side, same goes for other types of graphics. Also do you need to measure or do you just place the graphics on and get on with it.
Cleaning
Once you've finished screen printing, what's the first thing you do? The reason I ask is when i tried cleaning it, I made a complete mess with ink everywhere and I wasn't sure if there were certain steps you do first.
Thanks
