This is another educational screenprinting video by Catspit Productions, LLC. Here we take another look at cleaning up ink off of your screen printing screens. But in this edition we look at it from the perspective of an on press ink change and we also consider cleaning screens well for the next use with white ink. Recently we had used a screen that had previously been cleaned of red ink. But we didn't clean it well and when it was used with white ink on it the next time I printed; the red began to contaminate the white. In this video we look at this and we discuss how to prevent it. How do you clean a screen on press for an ink change? This is answered in the video. How do you clean a screen of ink so that the next time you use white ink it will be clean? Well we look at that too. This video is an extension of previous ink cleaning videos and will fill in some missing pieces for all of you who are new to the process.

That tip of printing the lighter inks first it's like the best you can do I think, and using the same screen for multiple color printings will demand more "cleaning skills" definetly :D thnks for the vid buddy!

Great video been waiting for you to make this one. LOL I need to order that pink ink from You. Thanks Don
Yes, I have the mini legs on my Vista. I like my pallet to be about waist high. I have long arms ;) Thanks much for watching and dropping me a note. ☠
Thank you very much. You’re welcome. It’s my pleasure. That sounds like it could be a curing problem. Make sure the ink is cured properly. Do a stretch test. The ink should stretch not crack when properly cured. Thanks much for watching and dropping me a note. ☠

You’re welcome. Yes if your screen is under exposed the emulsion may indeed come off on the rag. If the color happens when you clean the screen with solvents especially on the inkwell side then it may be so. If the color is the same as the emulsion that is a sign it’s under cured. If you’re using a photopolymer emulsion then you can post expose the emulsion to light without the film positive after the initial washout and drying. Thanks much for watching and dropping me a note. ☠
Great videos, your always very helpful and informative. Thanks for your time and efforts. My white ink seems to crack when printing on black shirts. Do you have suggestions on preventing this?
Thanks Boss !

How's it going? First of all, thanks for all of the great videos. They always help me out when I'm in a bind. Any suggestions on getting all the residue from the back of the screen? I keep getting slight white residue no matter how much I clean the back of my screen.
Hello there. Usually a dry paper towel or cotton rag will do the trick. Otherwise you may need a bit of solvent to clean it up. Thanks for watching! Screen Printing Equipment & Supplies - CatspitScreenPrintSupply.com/
Yeah, unfortunately I cannot reach that far... yet. LOL ;) Thanks for watching & commenting! ☠
hi jonathan
thank you for your video which held me learning.I could like to start a business with printing can please tell me what kind of machine you use in your workshop? thank you in advances
Thank you for this!! This issue just came up for the first time for me last week. I noticed that it looked like some of the emulsion was coming off on the rag. I'm using Franmar on press ink wash. Is the emulsion issue because I'm using too much solvent, or under-exposing the stencil? Can I expose for a second time after the stencil is burned to make sure the emulsion is completely cured? Thanks!!
You're very welcome. I use and sell RANAR screen printing equipment. Thanks for watching and leaving a comment! ☠
When I did screenprinting, I used to tape off a lot of the edge of the screen up onto the walls of the frame. When changing colors, i would scrape out the excess ink, pull off and throw out the tape and have a fresh area to retape and then clean the screen.
That's good. Everyone has their own preferences but whatever works well is a okay. Thanks for watching. Screen Printing Equipment & Supplies - catspitscreenprintsupply.com/
Not that I know of. Sorry. Thanks for watching & commenting! ☠
Hey I use your videos a lot to learn more about screen printing and I actually ran into a snag I was hoping you could help with. We printed some football jerseys (ALLESON) and did not realize until a customer brought one back in that they were 100% nylon. We had done the same jerseys before and they were poly so we didn't even look. Because we thought they were poly we did not use Nylabond and just used our plastsol inks. My question in do you know of any way to save these jerseys? Thanks
also are all the chemicals you are using screen opener? I cant find any in australia - will a household alternative work?
No, screen opener comes in a can. These were solvents for plastisol inks. You can use paint thinner if you have nothing better. Thanks for watching. Screen Printing Equipment & Supplies - catspitscreenprintsupply.com/
Hi Jonathan.
Can you tell me if it is possible to use the (screen opener 32) as retardant paint (water based ink)? ... Or what is the correct and appropriate use for this product.
===== And Thanks for all these videos are very useful.========
Great video! Your screen printer looks a lot lower then mine. I have the same one. How did you get it lower? Unless your just taller then I am lol
You’re very welcome. No, I would not use it as a retarder for any ink. It’s a solvent. Not an ink additive. It is used to get stains and clogs out of the mesh on press. I have a video on screen opener. Thanks for watching & commenting! ☠
Do use hardener
No, I do not. I simply do a proper exposure. Thanks for watching! Screen Printing Equipment & Supplies - CatspitScreenPrintSupply.com/
I would call an ink maker near you and ask them about what you are printing on. They will know what ink to use as well as a suggested mesh. I’m not sure what you mean by ink the whole sheet. You can print multiple items on a sheet and die cut it later if that is what you mean. Thanks for watching & commenting! ☠
wheb you say rags are they paper towels?
Rags, paper towels or what have you. Anything absorbent, soft and disposable. Thanks for watching. Screen Printing Equipment & Supplies - catspitscreenprintsupply.com/
you can also print your RED HAND on a white shirt :) and sale it ... like Mr. SPOKE with LLP ...
That would be a Catspit mono print ;) ☠
