Default cannot fo multiple prints

hey guys,

been doing a few frames for a long time and now i think im happy to admit i have the hang of it.

problem #2.

when i try to make a print the first one is ok, if i try a 2nd print the frame had ink underneath it, ie its like it seaped from the first print and when i put the print down it blurs the 2nd print. (hope that makes sense.)

suggestions?

you should sharpen your squeegee after almost every use. You can use a couple of pieces of sandpaper to do this. PM me if you want more info about it. There are different durometer is the hardness or softness of your squeegee. What you might think is real tight on your screens might not really be tight, but who knows without a tension meter. Like I said above if you have any questions just PM me. Hope some of this helps.
