Ok guys, this is the flower i want to print on fabric, i've seen it done before and it looks solid, white and yellow faded to make the flower. If i was to make a stencil for screen printing, what paint do i use to get it solid, not the t-shirt paint but the more thicker paint. sorry for my lingo i dont know what the correct terms are lol. if anyone can help tht would be much appreciated! i've attached the picture that i want to print.
I want to know what paint to i use to get a solid look. something more thicker than normal t.shirt printing. sorry if i cant explain it well, im not sure what it is.
oh wait ur gonna need two screen for the white then the yellow
u can have the white in a 110 mesh and the yellow in a 200+ mesh. if u want to yellow to blend in with white it gonna have to have halftones
I have tried layering the paint but it still isnt the thickness i like it to be, does anyone know what paint to use?
layering a few times doesn't get it the thickness u want? double the thickness of the emulsion would leave a good amount of ink on it. there alot of different types of "INK" out there and different printer like different brands
Sorry guys, i dont know the terms. puff ink? sounds like want i need.. i'll explain more, i do screenprinting, the paint (as i call it) is quite runny, so when i screenprint the picture looks faded, altho i have layered it 3 times the thickness i want isnt showing. i want more of a solid thick look. do i make sense? sorry if i dont!!
ok, in your verbatim which paint you are using, plastisols will never be runny unless to dilute it toomuch, same goes with waterbased.give us more details
im using fabric heat set inks. the texture of them are quite light. im after more thicker inks that will be more opaque. i was looking into puff inks but i dont know how to do them.
