Hey screen printers here is a quick video on screen printing polyester performance shirts. We are using the Lawson Dynamic low bleed (LB) ink on Badger softlock t-shirt. The first 2 screens are 160 mesh count- wet on wet- flash and then we printed the last 2 colors through a 230 mesh count.
Things I used in this video:
Get my favorite polyester white ink here: lawsonsp.com/collections/plas...

Check out flash unit options: lawsonsp.com/collections/flas...

I am in Indian Printer From 20 yrs.. Sad news is Indian never innovated ink ideas as China.. I know wilflex is best brand but in India mist of them use Sericol or local products.. Now 2022 most of the Foreign buyer insist Water base inks . Again in India no proper guide on Waterbase ink solution . I innovated few Technics of Water base NonPvc on Pure Leathers for foreign buyers..succeeded but no rates or appreciation for printers . Hey Man u doing great for beginners . Your video is old but its has information for educated interested individuals..

What about printing a single color white on the red shirt? Would you still use a grey underbase then the white?

Is there a limit on how thick the dri fit tshirt should be. I like mine on the thinner side but im not sure if they would be best for screen printing.

What if I UNDERBASE with poly white ink, can I use non-poly inks and get it to cure without sublimation?

Nice video... so does it just come down to the poly ink and temperature to stop the dye migration ? or are there other factors you take in to account ? Liked the video... just subscribed. Thanks

Yes those are the main keys. A quality low bleed poly ink and low cure temp. A couple of other things to consider. Use quality garments. A lot of the low price polyester garments in the wholesale market have terrible migration issues. I will not slander companies but one of the worst is in Augusta, Georgia. Catch the garments off the belt if you don't have a long outfeed and do not let the print tack together. Lay the garment flat to cool. Make sure if you stack them hot, lay them out individually or in several small stacks alternating the stack order. Polyester garments retain heat and stacking a huge stack hot can lead to migration. Another problem with this is ghosting of the print on the garment it is touching. The dye in polyester shirts when applied to heat and inks, "outgases". This chemical gas can actually lead to premature outgassing of the garment touching it and it will ghost the image into it. Oh yeah, do not over flash. Most flashes are on/off without temp controls. The average flash runs 400-500 degrees.

Did you use nylon 900 catalyst? I saw a video that you mixed with your ink an on polyester shirts the ink wont wash off....

Xotic Klothing hi- good question- but no- in this video we just used low bleed ink- it cures at a lower temp- and has great stretch properties for polyester performance shirts.

Jason Enz sure can- we chock the colors is the design if we can get away with it - it makes wet on wet a lot easier....the grey was a little lighter at the end- but still passable!

Hi. You really do good explanation on your videos, congratulations. I have a question, the poly ink you mentioned, is it the same called plastisol ink? I'm just learning, l want to know how many kind of inks are. Thanks.
@LearnHowToScreenPrint
@LearnHowToScreenPrint 5 жыл бұрын
Rogelio Perez-Delgado hi. Thanks for watching and commenting. Yes the poly ink is plastisol...there are several types of plastisol ink you can use...low cure...low bleed...puff ink...opaque...general use...etc...you should ask the people you buy or are going to start buying from what type of plastisol they recommend and what they sell.

which chemical is used for polyster and nylon
@LearnHowToScreenPrint
@LearnHowToScreenPrint 4 жыл бұрын
Polyester doesn’t need one- nylon though will need a “nylon catalyst” to adhere the ink to the substrate. I believe fusion 180 ink does not need a catalyst though and will adhere to nylon on its own-
