- After our visit to Magna Colours (waterbased ink specialists) we wanted to put what we learnt into action. Although we print professionally, our studio is still small in comparison to auto studios. We wanted to test out the Magna Colours waterbased inks using our normal small studio setup.

Thank you so much for the very insightful video as always!
Ah thanks, with the videos we are trying to solve real problems so it’s awesome to hear it helped… we are starting a new series of videos where we answer questions for people using #printerscorner if you have any cool topics you want us to discuss
Loved the print!
Thanks, it is fun to sell on the stall too when people see the design!
Thanks for all your content is really helping us who are just thinking of starting out and finding there are a lot of elements to consider / buy . Just out of interest what do you use the spray cans for?
Hey, nothing screen print related, I just sometimes make artwork with spraypaint. :)
nice video !! quick question ! do you think a 75 durometer squeegee would be ok for water based ink ?
do you have any videos about printing wet on wet im having issue with the white base sticking to the next screen and it bleeding smearing the image when I do the next color. I need to find a shop and see if theirs any classes or something
what is the typography? I love your work, nice video. Greetings from Argentina.
please, i cant find the magna self leveling white or neutral can you put a link or tell the exact name
Thank you very much. I want to ask you about the size of the aluminum frame you are using. Thank you
Hey, this is a 23 x 31 inch frame - we bought it from Screen Print World - discount code CRP5
Great video, thanks. Where are you buying your Magna Colours ink from? I cannot find an online supplier.
Hey, I emailed and got it direct but I know they have distributors now who are working on making it easier to purchase. You can email me and I can pass on your details - info@squeegeeandink.co.uk
For the self-levelling range on dark garments can you print flash print colors instead of using a white underbase?
awesome yes good call
When printing with WB inks on a manual, do you dd a stroke to your colors in Sep Studio NXT? When we print with plastisol we normally add a 0.3 stroke to layers in Sep Studio NXT, not sure if the same can be done with WB inks to ease registration issues. Thanks for your help!
Really mmm? I use the same stroke on WB and plastsiol. I think 0.3 is very tight, depending on the print order and detail in the layer you could try and up that to about .75pt.
Great video. Why You don`t print your own transfers?
Hey, sometimes we do... we have a flatbed and often print plastisol transfers. Sometimes we don't have time to do it so buy them in. 50/50 whether we make them ourselves or there are enough to make it worth it to buy them.
Sorry a question on a different subject,what heat press did you purchase
Hey, I also did a video on this - I have the Hotronix auto-open from Target transfers with discount code SQUEEGEE
55t mesh? Like 155 mesh?
Also 165 Celsius?
where did you get your screens from @
Hey, I purchase the blank screens from Screen Print World and then coat and expose them in the studio - discount code CRP5 for anything from Screen Print World.
which paper and printer using?
Hey I use the Epson T7200 with inkjet film, I have a whole youtube video about what we use to print positives too :) thanks for watching!
@@squeegeeandink I have l1430 Epson injet it's Okay? And which paper using? I mean tracing paper? Or dtf paper?
@@fahadakhter9211 Hey, I don't know about DTF or Tracing paper I am afraid.
@@squeegeeandinkOkay m just said which paper using for screen printing ... I have Print inkjet
@@fahadakhter9211 me too inkjet film
Your voice 😭😭😭
confused?? 369C (Coated) water based inks are all uncoated, are they not?
That’s not what I go by or have seen when we went to the waterbased ink factory at Magna Colours 🤓
The U and the C are referenced to the traditional substrate (paper). Paper usually comes in types of surfaces, Uncoated and Coated. Confusing, I know. The actual Pantone ink color is the same for both coated or uncoated. Not to worry.
@@randylclark4665 Thanks for that. but C in the pantone world refers to ink type and C being the coated book. UV and Plastisol inks are normally "coated inks" I do understand Coated and uncoated paper as well. we also do digital press printing and need to tell the machine what paper is being used. You may be right and I missing something... But in the world of garments, the substrate is not coated. Now, thank you, I am more confused... LOL!
@@davidtrolly7051 It is confusing. The U and C actually have no application to textile colors. Traditional offset lithography ink was translucent, and as such picked up the texture of the paper it was printed on. The ink itself didn’t change. If the ink was printed on glossy paper the color would come out “C.” If the ink was printed on regular uncoated per, the color would come out “U.” Digital printing does not even use spot (Pantone) colors, as it is mostly four color process (CMYK), or a derivative thereof. So the C and the U are archaic designations of a bygone era. I am very surprised that Pantone continues to use them.
