 Re: First timer with Speedball kit: result + questions
For your sample paper print to have the lines and your shirt didn't, it means you did not have enough pressure or ink through the entire stroke.
Off contact allows you to lay down multiple strokes if your first stroke was not heavy enough. And you can tell by looking at your design in the screen after the first stroke (don't move the screen). If you don't see any ink in the screen, then it all went on the shirt. But if you don't apply even pressure or ink supply, you might see some of the ink still in the screen after your stroke. you would then lay down another stroke.
The higher the mesh count, the less ink that gets through the screen. So if 110 wasn't laying down enough ink, you would go down to say an 86.
Nice job, btw. |
