Now that we have all of our screens exposed and dry we're going to go ahead
and set these up from lightest to darkest so we're going to do the white
screen first yellow magenta cyan and then black and so I'm going to go ahead
and set that up and we'll be right back okay so here we are we're all set up
I've got my white yellow magenta cyan and black screens all set up they're all
registered a print printed the white underbase on a black shirt just to kind
of help with being able to easily see that the registration marks because
you're not going to see them on a white shirt so here we are in black shirt I
put down a I hit the the under base once and it flashed it already and everything
is registered up so now what we're going to go ahead and do is we're going to do
test print
and the inks and I'm using here are their Union inks but there's all kinds
of great manufacturers out there that do process inks but genius is what I like
and now what I like to do compared to what a lot of other people do is I like
the flash between every single color especially with the white underbase that
way the ink wants to really run off or anything like that
you get a good crisp sharp clean image and your inks are still going to mix up
and have the you know the process expect because they're all these pink up inks
are kind of a translucent I just ain't so it didn't really matter if you flash
or you don't see so there we are with the magenta down you are seeing the red
starting to come out flash that for a few seconds
okay I'm going to come back nice and packed up we're going to fit with our
cyan and blood up and I always like to do a push front sometimes I'll do pull
just just all kind the pin situation for the most part I like to do
a push burn especially with these sticker agencies you'll find that some
of these processing sparks
you know they're they're kind of thick aside from this black
but I just really enjoy doing
okay and so there we are there's our first test print everything's looking
pretty good so far I don't really see you need to go back in rhe register or
anything so I'm going to go ahead and tape off these registration marks and
then we'll start printing some t-shirts be right back okay so we're all set up
we've got our white underbase in our process colors all registered and the
registration marks are taped off I've got my t-shirts ready to go home I've
got my press loaded with t-shirts I'm going to run off about six shirts for
you so you just kind of take a look at Castleman's process printing works so
I'm going to go ahead and do not white underbase and hit it twice
just to make sure I clear the screen I'm still like a flash off until you know
tell tacked up so we can turn on top of it
as I mentioned before I like to slash in between my process colors I kind of find
it necessary when you're doing it on top of a white underbase and that's just so
the eat doesn't come lead off and kind of retain it helps to retain a crisper
looking image I think I might not make any difference surely but as I mentioned
before you don't have to flash in between colors you did wet on wet matter
of a stack if I had an automatic I would flash only the white and French what I
would but since I have Manuel prison
it's passing by the flash anyways I'm seeing reason not flash let's just just
kind of how I look at it if there's anything I forget to mention feel free
to leave a comment on this video or ask questions I don't mind answering
questions and helping my fellow screen printers out and also I enjoy my
customers being able to see how some of the stuff works - some people don't
really have any idea how this stuff works
it's great to see how what's all involved involved in putting some
t-shirts
it looks like you stop for a second and you got some pinhole you probably
couldn't see black shirt which is a big problem because we've got a blowout gun
and we can get rid of those little spots
okay
and I'm doing chick strokes on everything be sure our killer screen and
it's going to be very consistent in your printing with processed print meaning
that if your pressure the amount of pressure you're putting down on the
screen from one shirts another how much pressure you're putting down your your
prints going to vary in its my a magenta yellow wears a black so you want to be a
machine life as possible
here we go is our first trip looking pretty awesome
in there for upcoming portal July
down to our last seizure
and there we have it our four-color process print on a white
t-shirt with a white underbase I hope this really helps you guys out if you
have any questions feel free to ask me leave a comment and I hope this video
really helps out I got some work to do have about 200 of these t-shirts to do
and I'll see you next time you buy any screen printing feel free to
contact me at micro designs calm and you'll have a good one happy fourth
