thank you for making this video. your the only person who isn't like "don't do it cheap buy a $300 cruit machine and $600 screen printing materials". I just wanna try it to see if I enjoy it i dont wanna start a full-blown fashion line right away.
I guess im randomly asking but does someone know a method to log back into an Instagram account? I was dumb lost my login password. I would love any help you can give me
for anyone who doesn't have the budget for the circut, the photo emulsion method is technically cheaper, you can get your designs print on transparent paper at staples and burn it into your screen. the photo emulsion has a removing agent so you can still reuse the screen. also, for water based paints like speedball, they do not remove once completely dry, make sure to wash your ink as soon as possible or your screen will be messed up.
@@dman984 you should be able to reuse your transparent paper to burn your screen over and over. As for the image on your screen, depending on the level of detail you have, you should be able to wash out the ink and reprint at least a couple dozen times, with water inks time is very important. When you want to remove the image you’ll need emulsion remover and a greaser to prep your screen for another image. The whole concept of screen printing is supposed to be its reuse ability. Definitely do research on the burning process, it’s the most important aspect of your image quality.
Back in my day we cut out designs in Fruit Roll Ups with exacto knives then lick through the silk till we could taste the fruit and fun rolled up in one.
Dude thank you so much. The main roadblock for me starting my clothing brand was the amount of money it takes to get everything. I can’t wait to get started
@@worldsninja What’s what? Transfer tape? It’s sticky tape that you press over your image, then you put the image down, rub it, and then peel off the tape and then it’s there… You don’t have to manually move it and place it all down yourself.
@@amandarogers8877 that was my first thought as I was cringing, watching him "eyeball it" yelling at my phone "this video is a year old but my God I hope he learned about transfer tape since then!" 😂
this is soooo helpful tysm. i run an etsy and have been wanting to expand from just being a sticker maker to putting my art on apparel. i was nervous about how much money i would spend trying to screenprint, and this was the most helpful vid so far
this is the best video that i have seen on youtube for beginners, lots of people talk about heating machines and printers, and other things that are way to complicated for a beginner, thank you so much for making it easy.
This was amazing! I needed to make a pattern for a cosplay but didn't want to get a whole kit for one shirt. Thank you for making this impressive and informative
great video!! thank you for your idea i can start making my own designed tees! Arigatou!! Hey I saw you are drinking Cafe ore coffee which japanese one love it too!!
Hi, I’m new to screen printing. Thanks for the helpful video… do you not use emulsion for this method? And how do you clean your screens when you are done? Thanks👍🏼👍🏼
are you trying to start a printing business? if not, you can definitely just make shirts for yourself. use T-Shirts from places like blankstyle.com or blankapparel.com
You may want to use a clean cheese cloth and stick your transfer paper on it a few times to knock off some of that stickiness. Otherwise, you’ll end up ripping half your design up just as you can by not using transfer tape. Your best bet is to use a mild sticky paper. The one you showed is not mild at all.
And one more thing, if you can buy a heat press (I bought a 12x15 swing arm) for around 160 bucks. After the paint mostly dries, I just press my shirts for 30 seconds at 300 degrees. Got a question, if you already have a cricut, why not just buy vinyl and make your shirts with that? I only tried the screen printing (the way you did it here) because I thought it would look more like a printed shirt and feel soft, but honestly it feels the same to me. Just curious.
to screen print, does the garment have to be 100% percent cotton or it can be any material? and after screen printing this way, do you have to wash the garment after? btw thanks so much for this video. very helpful.
Can you print on rain jacket material? And can you reuse these screens. How do you clean to make multiple shirts? This is an amazing technique btw. Thanks for making this video.
If you want to invest alittle more in this, using heat-transfer vinyl is so much easier to weave through the design (i find regular transfer vinyl sometimes is very picky with small details) and using an iron or heat press and heat press it on, it creates a more permanent screen & you dont need any transfer tape!
Okay I’m confused how did you print out the image? Like what did you print it on to get it on the black sticky paper? Also do you still need the mesh if you use the Etsy vinyl or is that just a print that you use for just ironing on the shirt? And when you iron it on do you need to use anything over the shirt or can you just iorn it by itself?
Use a cutter machine like cricut or silhouette cameo to cut out your design on a permanent vinyl(black sticky paper) then use a transfer/contact tape to pick up your image and lay it on the mesh. If you don't have a cutter, you can go onto etsy and you can either order a premade design or some people will cut your design for you. If you order htv (heat transfer vinyl), that can go directly onto your shirt and ironed on or you can also iron that onto your mesh for screen printing and it'll be a permanent screen. Use a Teflon sheet over your image when you iron to protect it.

Bruh you’re actually my inspiration for starting a clothing brand. Thanks so much for this video
Preciate it man!

Less talk more work!

Once you burn your transparent design print can you reuse it ? If you wash it would it disappear also ?
@@dman984 you should be able to reuse your transparent paper to burn your screen over and over.

what equipment would I need to burn the image from the transparent to the screen?
@@dman984 yes. You can save arouse image many times.
Emulsion seems way easier and cheaper in my experience, ive never tried a vinyl image
Back in my day we cut out designs in Fruit Roll Ups with exacto knives then lick through the silk till we could taste the fruit and fun rolled up in one.
Love when people do professional stuff like this but show you how to do it cheaply
Thank you for addressing the people with low funds this really helped me I'm about to make my own
I buy the dollar store clear contact paper.I cut on my cricut, for my projects..
how do you clean the screen prints & how many times can you use that? I use htv vinyl but want to try screen printing
The amount of real in this video is appreciated. you really meant in a budget and my pockets thank you my brother!
That’s dope brother Preciate the tip .. very helpful
Amazing video! Also love the Tchaikovsky shirt too
Dude thank you so much. The main roadblock for me starting my clothing brand was the amount of money it takes to get everything. I can’t wait to get started
p.s. i only use acrylic paint I heat set, wait 72 hrs the wash & wear, has not washed off yet !
Bro, your life would be sooooooo much easier, IF you just had a roll of transfer tape. It was painful watching that step 😂😂
what’s that
@@worldsninja What’s what? Transfer tape? It’s sticky tape that you press over your image, then you put the image down, rub it, and then peel off the tape and then it’s there… You don’t have to manually move it and place it all down yourself.
@@worldsninja Google transfer tape lol

@@ItsMrAhole2U exactly what I’m hoping too 😂

So under 50 dollars IF you have a cutter already.
Or an exacto knife
@@rhubiking u can do it with an exacto knife?
You can get you design printed on Etsy, and go from there and make your screen
i think you can also order some from fedex for an affordable price
@@jamarmartin884 it’s sold out🥲
Thank you bro, very informative! 👑
Photo emulsion is so easy to use though but I respect the grind making your own way
You should get transfer tape for your vinyl. It would help so much
this is the best video that i have seen on youtube for beginners, lots of people talk about heating machines and printers, and other things that are way to complicated for a beginner, thank you so much for making it easy.
Tip: you can actually use masking tape for transferring the foil
Man how ??
Transfer tape is great but it's really nice to watch tutorials that use minimal supplies
the misprint registered symbol makes it look better lol.
fr
Just buy the speedball starter screen printing kit comes with screen squeegee and like 3 or 4 paints
I used to do this in high school but with pieces of paper, the stencils wouldn’t last long but it was fun!
Bro this video was so clutch ! Going to try this ASAP!
the mistake u made actually looked kinda sick tho
@Corbin Salvatore thats how you lose trust but okay
factsss
I use the duck brand clear shelf liner from Walmart as my transfer tape, it would make that process so much easier!!
Yeah I’ve done this I would Defintly recommend getting transfer tape
This was amazing! I needed to make a pattern for a cosplay but didn't want to get a whole kit for one shirt. Thank you for making this impressive and informative
You can use transfer tape for vinyl. It would make it so much easier
This is awesome - thanks! How do you clean the screen between prints/ is that necessary?
Thank you so much for this video, it explains everything I needed to know!! I got so much out of it- thanks mate!! Liked and definitely subscribed 😎👌
Question can u put up a list of items that are needed
Transfer tape is your friend for getting the vinyl onto the screen❤️
Tip. Use transfer paper. It can be as simple as the shelf lining clear paper from walmart or dollartree
not as high quality
Something I would highly suggest investing in is some transfer paper.
great video!! thank you for your idea i can start making my own designed tees! Arigatou!! Hey I saw you are drinking Cafe ore coffee which japanese one love it too!!
wow this was actually super helpful
This was super helpful, thanks gango
If you mirror the image you can use transfer paper to put it on the screen. May be easier.
Gaku: “items you’ll need”
Me: ¿Que hacemos con Tapatío?
Hi, I’m new to screen printing. Thanks for the helpful video… do you not use emulsion for this method? And how do you clean your screens when you are done? Thanks👍🏼👍🏼
I’m so thankful for this video. It was very detailed. I just have one question. Why not use HTV? I ask because I curious about the longevity.
Some people like the feel of ink inside of the cotton versus htv on top
@@charlesm4858 Ooooh, okay. Thank you!
This video really helped bro! I’m glad you explained everything to the T.
So do you have to create your own shirt brand in order to print and sell the shirt? please someone answer me
are you trying to start a printing business? if not, you can definitely just make shirts for yourself. use T-Shirts from places like blankstyle.com or blankapparel.com
this video was extremely helpful, ty for taking the time to make this 🌞
Where you say you “fuck up” the R and S I think looks like a nice touch
this is way easier than using emulsion and i thank you for this
No it isn’t lol, it’s quite the headache
Saved me so much time and money. Freaking amazing.
I’ve been doing this for years. Good video.

oh my goddd WHY DIDNT I THINK OF PICTURE FRAMES thank youuu
Would you mind sending a link or letting me know which exact silhouette cutter you have?/ would recommend? :)
Great ! But how can you use multiple colors instead of one ? Or is it not possible with this because you need the whole machine ? Please respond.
You need transfer paper. Glad press n seal works well for cheap.
Use transfer tape when transferring stencil to the screen. Will make life so much easier.
Was just about to say the same thing
I've never seen someone use vinyl for this!
to screen print, does the garment have to be 100% percent cotton or it can be any material? and after screen printing this way, do you have to wash the garment after? btw thanks so much for this video. very helpful.
You made this very easy to understand, thank you!!
Honestly no video has helped like this one, subbed 💪🏽
Can you print on rain jacket material? And can you reuse these screens. How do you clean to make multiple shirts? This is an amazing technique btw. Thanks for making this video.
Love your personality ❤️
Very articulate 👌
Would a blow dryer replace the heat gun?
Is there a reason you put the design on the front of the screen and not the back?
Dollar store sells clear contact paper u could use. Cheaper alternative
Lower quality.
Did you make the sweatpants you are wearing in video?
Now I'm tryna make my own skate gear 🤷♂️
Ok.... but where did you get that tchaikovsky shirt
do you have to have multiple vinyls or can you use one design of the vinyl for all ur shirts
You can reuse one piece of vinyl to print the same pattern on many shirts if that's what you're asking
Yooooo this is major man, appreciate you 🙏🏽
thumbnail hoodie is fire, is that your brand?
This might be a stupid question, but if i want to do more then one color, do i just print the second color same way as the first on top?
i went on etsy to creat a decal which one exaclty is it because theres a few different ones

Can you jus clean that screen and put a new vinyl on it and keep re using it?!
make a video about puff printing
How many times can you use this kind of screen? Or are they reusable in the future?
how do i clean the screens
Great video
Bro! Thanks for this video my guy
Great video bro! Thanks!

the shop on etsy where you ordered the vinyls is closed, anyone have another shop i could purchase from?
So you happen to remember the name
Thank youuuuu man
Your amazing bro thank you so much.
Thank you so much
Put tape on the vinyl that make it easier to transfer
Very well done!
How big is the wooden picture frame here ??
whats the paper under the vinyl
thank you this was aMazinG
Why do you not use emolsion?
So screen printing is like spray painting stencils
How about if the design is more then one color btw rlly helpful
Use masking tape to cover the parts of the design you don't want
How do you cut the design into the vinyl?
he has a cutter machine you could probably use an exact to knife
Thank you so much for this!!!
So after I make the screen I can uses the same one as many times as I want?
Whoa! This is a game changer
