I just ordered the Ryonet discharge white ink with the activator from silkscreeningsupplies. Has anybody had any experience with this before?

Also, will this emulsion work without a hardener? And are screens reclaimable once you use discharge ink on them?

I use Murakami Photocure Blue Direct Emulsion

Thanks!

It looks like the emulsion you are using is not water resistant, so it will probably not work for long runs. If you aren't doing too many shirts it might work OK. You will want to use a water resistant emulsion for the Ryonet (Matsui) discharge because it is waterbased. Yes, you can reclaim the screens after doing discharge.

I haven't used the white, but I took their classes and we did do a shirt using clear discharge and discharge with red dye added, and the results were very nice.

Discharge check out these videos for more information on discharge and how it works.

good video! What if I want to print a white discharge as an underbase white and print plasitisol on top instead of the colored discharge? is it the same printing method? Would I print (underbase)/flash/print/flash/etc?
