we used to bleach dye shirts with the "bleach added" dishwasher gel! it'd probably be more similar in consistency to screenprinting ink - we used to use it with foam stamps

it's very important to tell people they need to thoroughly rinse and then thoroughly wash the shirt as SOON as the bleach has done its job. Or else the bleach will disintegrate the fabric. I found this out age 14 when my jeans fell to pieces!

As a PSA if your are interested in trying this but can't afford/don't want to invest in a machine cutter check if you have a local maker space with one! Sometimes librarys have them and sometimes there are independent ones!

I've done this before with SoftScrub and it worked great! It's the right consistency right out of the bottle. Your prints turned out bee-oo-tee-ful!

plans: sleep early shmoxd: heeey here are 2 new videos for you at 3am 😍

YOOOOO currieGOAT and Shmoxd upload on the same day??? my inspiration bouta be through the roof

There’s a bleach that’s a gel consistency, it’s blue but it works just like regular bleach , think it’s supposed to be for deep stains or something,there’s also bleach added dishwasher gel.you should totally do a part 2 and try some of the suggestions people left in the comments 👍

When working in tight spaces (too small to fit your squeegee inside the screen), a great (and really cheap) option is to get a set of bondo spreaders from the auto supply store.

Every time I watch one of your videos, I get the overwhelming urge to destroy random things around my house with my diy fails

Ho man that asmr just in time to chill out to while I get to sleep. Appreciate it!

You got hooked with ALL the Cricut! I’ve been using it for year and don’t even got all that good stuff. Loved the video.

psa: please don't boil bleach! The fumes can cause horrible lung damage and can even kill u lmao. I agree with the comments saying to use gel bleach toilet cleaner

I love your channel. I love that you show all the things you try before you find what works.

Actually there is a screen printing ink called "Discharge" that does the same bleach effect on the shirt

my job is making custom screenprinted banners etc and because we do a lot of one offs we use vinyl for our screens (our biggest screen is like 6ft) so i do this every day! and i do also call it weeding it out

mans hittin is with the scarce level double upload

Closed caption called your dumping stuff in the trash “applause” 👏

You can make larger squeegees by cutting up plastic container lids, like your Cool WHHHHHIp or Can't Believe It's Not Butters containers. Ya know, if you wanted :)

i love listening to you narrate. you have such a fun personality. stay crafty.

It's Christmas morning for us Shmoxd viewers

Wow, I didn't think it would work. Thank you.

I did something similar, laser cut freezer paper, ironed my shape onto a shirt then sprayed with a 50/50 bleach and water mix. It worked pretty well but the bleach got under the freezer paper in a few places so I'm still perfecting my technique.

sir it’s 2am anyways imma come back in the morning to watch this

I came here to learn how to screen print and ended up learning how to get up even easier, thank you

Now I see this video and I found it interesting. I think that instead of applying bleach in a traditional way, it might be more effective with a very fine spray bottle, Like fine bleach vapor... It would help with the homogeneous dispersion of the liquid in more controlled proportions. Another idea would be to use scented bleach that they sell to clean the bathroom. It is already good with a certain consistency and viscosity.

Woah, my guy was sponsored by Cricut. Congrats man!

This dude I'd genius I swear. D.i.y legend

Everytime I watch your videos (and they’re endlessly inspiring, by the way) I get hooked on the chill bop for the summer skeleton portion of your intro/outro. I know it’s custom made but is there a full or longer version out there somewhere? Can’t get enough.

LOVE UR CHANNEL SO MUCH!!!

Man how do you know ????? I was literally searching "bleached tshirt design" rn 😳😳 Dude how ??

Love it man !! You’re creation are bad ass !

It bugs me a lot that I’ve been watching you for a couple years and you still aren’t at 1 million subscribers yet. I love watching your videos and you have bomb ass tutorials.

Dooope I love your work and your over all vibe and also your videos. So creative

Heaven sent 🙌🏻

Woo!!! Two videos!!!!!

What a bad ass intro! I instantly subscribed when I saw that.

Wow great work ✌

I know how to fix your problem, in graffiti there's a thing called a mop and it's basically just a bingo dabber/dauber. You could use that to dab the bleach onto the screenprint, it's basically just a bottle with a sponge tip

Oh wow. I LOVE my maker!!!! 😁

You are so creative!!!

Homeboys got a cricut.... Unstoppable.

I love the way you create

Whoooah that was 12 minutes?? So entertaining i didn't even notice the time passing (time goes by fast when you're having fun I guess?) also I gotta say I really appreciated this sponsor like I feel like every time you do a sponsorship where it doesn't have that much to do with the vide it kinda kills the vibe idk? And I find myself just skipping to the rest of the video but it was so nice this time!! Please if you can I would love to see more like non invasive sponsors like this!!! Its like you put it out there so that if someone who is interested in doing the thing can know about it but it doesn't feel like you're shoving it down the viewers throat or like forcing in on us :)) thank you! Love to see this typa stuff, keep it up!

Maybe a sponge or something to apply the bleach through the screen/vinyl? Or spray bottle? Might also work with tie dye ink?

Daaaaamn you channel is Lo Máximo!

Omg hi!! Love your videos

Great video :) ty for sharing

I love ur videos so much dude

didn't cricut do a thing where you have to pay an absurd amount of money for a subscription fee to be able to have multiple designs? cuz it's super shitty if they haven't gotten rid of that

Your voice makes me wanna sleep

Super cool, thanks for sharing

I've never been more impressed with any diy project 👁👄👁

Use toilet bowl bleach. Already comes in gel format. You can buy it cheap at the dollar store.

Awesome I want to try this !

ima try this now!

Hi, when u were cleaning the screen, mineral water soaked rag works wonders I work at a T-shirt screen printing company lol

Use a window/glass cleaning squeegee. You can cut it to size too.

If you're trying to get thick bleach, try soft scrub. There are also bleach pens with gel

Thanks for the video

Fire!!

Dig your vibe 👍🏾

Next level brilliant!!! Thanks 4 sharing🥂 🌲✌🧙‍♂️👍🌲

You should honestly just use discharge ink. It more or less does the same thing but works a lot better. That ink is usually water based though so it can take a little getting used too.

I really dig ur overalls-

cool... cool cool cool ( as always, prrahp!)

Have you tried a metal bench scraper as a squeegee? You can get them on Amazon or any kitchen supplies store or website. They have different handles and come in different shapes and sizes. I have a couple but really love my Williams-Sonoma one because it’s 100% stainless steel and has a comfortable handle. The handle is just the metal of the scraper that is curved over to fit in your hand. I like that shape because it’s easy to grip and hang onto without slipping out of your hand.

Genio total bro!!saludos desde argentina!

Toilet cleaner with bleach is another option and it's kind of thicker consistency.

Meu sonho uma máquina dessa 😍😍

Okay but how can this Video have like 1 Million clicks and only 9k likes?

YOU ARE SO COOL!!!!!!!

🤔 very interesting and comes out nice

Yayyy

ahaha end of the month and the scheduled sponsor deal crunchtime my dude I think we would understand each other lol.

guess who found a new channel to binge (its me)

Have you thought about using the bleach powder that’s used for hair? When you mix it up it has a consistency that could work for screen printing.

Yeah i watch for the DIY. But your hands are lovely af!

Peeling paint is sooooo satisfying. I always want to do something with it but idunno what.

Cool

Are you able to re use the vinyl again? Like take it off put another design on and and then put the design from before on it again?

1am in Colombia and I'm here🌚

Two shirt videos in one day? And it's abt bleach dyeing, hell yeah

I love cleaning screens at work. I used to use like 4 cans of 957 fast open a day. Lol

I feel like it'd be easier to clean the screen before the paint dries next time lol

Not a card bird. Lol. This is really fkn cool.

💖

What is that spray he uses at the begining of the video to clean the screen???? :O i want

I wonder if you could solve some of the issues with the bleach by mixing it with transparent base

I’m thinking that mixing the bleach with some transparent extender base ink would make the bleach stop from over spilling so much if you don’t have much room at the top of your screen

Does anyone know how to keep an electric burner (hot plate) like the one used in this video, from turning itself off while in use? It seems to be a built-in safety mechanism used to keep it from overheating but it makes it impossible to keep a steady heat when I’m dyeing fabric.

wait, did my guy really just boil bleach? -yo that's dangerous

I have a homie that rocks a stencil of his and or his "tag" to make it quick and efficient. I thought that was a brilliant idea. He eventually turned into an amazing tattoo artist. Three-quarters of my sleeve done by him😁...

Have you ever done a diy on how to soften stuff shirts?

Noooyce!

Question, what type of vinyl are you using here?

Is this technique advantageous over simply applying the vinyl on the shirt itself and applying bleach with a spray bottle? That's what I've always done. You'd have to cover and exposed fabric with rags to avoid over-spray marks, but that's easy enough too.

Would a paint roller work to hold the bleach?

How did you add your hand drawn picture to Design Space?

I’d be fine with just a hour or so long video of just shxmod cleaning screens as background noise

The vinyl always seems so wasteful
