You make good videos. Straight to the point and not joking around and waisting time. Thank you tremendously.

[@TheJasonisme]

thank you, hilary! the right consistency for ink seems like it should be such an easy thing to find out but I've really struggled to figure it out or find info online and this video helped me a ton.

[@ayushg2271]

hah! came here to see some colour mixing, and you mixed the colour that i had in mind. perfect. subbed.

[@leslielee29]

Great video! Excited to mix some colors together 😊

[@RachelleMeyer]

Thanks - this is exactly the tutorial I needed! I mixed my ink too thickly at the printing lab last time. Do you have much experience with transparent base? Do you know why people told me to use it? It seems to make everything too sticky.

[@itstonycia]

Did not know about adding the water! Cool

[@kahaaniyaforkidsperforming101]

thank you for the video, I am trying to make my own color with pigments and fabric binder. Do you know how I can make my own ink by using a binder?

[@compartmentofdirections]

Hello, how could we do please a specific color from a Pantone book? Thanks

[@natachasimoes8730]

ive mixed my acrylic with screenprint medium and 8 out of 10 were too runny! So hard to fix

[@DanielaDurgova]

Thank you for your video? Where can I buy the inks from? Or do you mix it yourself?

[@jamiematthews9293]

This is ink that will only be set with heat correct? Will this work on vinyl that gets heat set in the oven at 265f? And also, could it be thinned with oderless mineral spirits?

[@Atmobreaks]

are all the inks used in this video are Waterbased? no plastisol ??

[@kirikaesecux]

looks so yummy

[@brd8764]

Nice.

[@marjcoish4748]

What is the name of the ink and where can I buy?

[@katelynjenkins1215]

We are using the only company in town that does screen printing. We have a travel goods business and want our logo on T-shirts. He cannot get our color correct. Can you please tell me how to make seafoam green? The color you show in your video regarding ink consistency shows this color. Please offer advise on how to get seafoam. Thank You.

why are the thick inks harder to work with? Surely its easier

[@user-sf5gi1kb2d]

hi

[@divyeshjetha1812]

Do not use water instead use a colour disolver catalyst to to the dried up colours and for too runny inks us thickener chemical
