    Screen Printing Mag

    Is there such a thing as a screen printing magazine available?

    Never read one but I dare say there will be. Get the screen sorted, whack some ink on and give it a go - the only way your going to learn is hands on. :)

    Re: Screen Printing Mag

    Never used inkjets for a posi but have heard other people using them - think they used a folex type film/paper but it was opaque.

    Not sure but this could be something like it.

    Re: Screen Printing Mag

    The sample we are waiting for is opaque, our other option I suppose is to take our stuff up to a local copy shop for them to print.

    By the way we are about to buy a couple of squeegees but we have conflicting info, should we use square or round and shore hardness of 70?

    Re: Screen Printing Mag

    I've always used square but I think round pushes more ink through the mesh and is aimed more at fabric printing only. I've haven't bought squeegees for a long time, as I have a large range with spare blades, but if I was you I'd get the square type as you'll be able to print other items such as vinyl stickers etc. Buying the round and I think you'll be stuck to printing fabric. As for shore hardness - tell them what you would like to print and take their advice.

    Cheers John

    I'm now completely afraid of screenprinting.
