You inspired me and to broaden my offering for my catalog of products thank you so much I'm definitely going to rethink my game
That’s awesome to hear. Having a heat press in 2024 is a lot different than 5-10 years ago, there’s a lot of untapped potential 🙏🏼
Great video, great content as always. I am definitely looking into TKO and Howard. The detail is awesome in your art work! Another 🔥 design!🤙🏼
Thanks Will! Best of luck with your plastisol transfer journey
thanks mate
You got it m8!
Can you send links on where to get your transfers?
A properly cured and taken care of screen print will out last the garment! What usually damages and cracks screen prints is the dryer, I always hang dry all my screen printed clothes and my prints looks brand new 👍 water based screen print will also survive the dryer better than a plastisol screen print (water based basically dyes the fibers)
who the fuck would use the drier on a garment they want to last?
@@Powsimian most people don’t know, especially if they are the person that put on clothes because they have to, I used to be the dude who tossed everything in the dryer
@@Nvr.enough3 😂 care instructions are seen by those who care
@@Powsimian lol I grew up washing hot water and drying hot. How faded were all of my clothes?

Thanks for this video. Where do you buy your 1801gd blanks from? Do you have a wholesale account or just buy from companies like blankstyle/jiffyshirts? Thank you
I buy them directly from LA Apparel. Most specialty blanks (not available on major wholesaler sites) require a wholesale license
@@ikendoitdotstudio okay i figured so thanks
Which do you like best? TKO or Howard? I find TKO to be a bit glossy at times. Been meaning to try Howard.
Have you tried covering your design with parchment paper on the second hit? That should remove/reduce the gloss that you’re seeing.
It’s tough to say which one I like BEST cause they both have something I like that the other one doesn’t so it’s an equal draw 🙏🏼
@@ikendoitdotstudio Yea I always hit the second time with parchment. I find it more with black and red inks. I just like them to look as close to actual screen printed designs as possible. In terms of feel, would you say they feel about the same? I have some Howard samples coming in so I guess I’ll see for myself lol
@@Gsantjr Gotcha, I feel ya, the black definitely has more of a gloss compared to the white. I also pay for 2x white hit on premium plus instead of just 1 hit, so that might contribute to the thickness of the ink but I personally think TKO's premium plus is better in feel.
At the end of the day you're not wearing the ink, you're wearing the tee. So if the feel of the ink is not "perfect", I don't care as long as it looks good and lasts a long time. Hope the samples work out for ya!
Thank you Brother , i have a question about your website , is it ok to inform me how you created ? i do screen printing t-shirt - beginner ....etc
I use Shopify for my webstore and Webflow for my other website. Shopify is going to be the best if you're planning on running an ecommerce business so it's always good to plan ahead and build your site around it
Thank you
Hi! Great video! Are you using 1801GD?
For LAA blanks yes, I use 1801GD
@@ikendoitdotstudio Thanks! they have multiple black options lol Are you wearing the "black edge" or "vintage black" on this video and printing on the "black"? Thanks again!
@@byndlmtsco I use both vintage black and regular black, mostly due to the aesthetic differences for certain designs. In this vid I’m using the normal black tee
Can you explain how you got those distressed looking edges on the text? It looks like real distressed plastisol
You use distort > displacement in Photoshop to how achieve that type of look 🙏🏼
@@ikendoitdotstudio you are awesome. Thank you replying. 🙏🏻
Is that the same as DTF (DIRECT TO FILM) transfer?
Negative, DTF is essentially a DTG with transfer powder. Plastisol is ink used for screen printing. The application with a heat press is quite similar though
What is the brand of the washed blank?
Teestyled
How do you feel about 613originals?
Tried the sample pack and wasn’t much of a fan of it but I was also only looking for puff.
Not too sure about the other ones!
What did you use to put the labels on
Hotronix Hat Press. You don’t need this, but if you have a hat press it can double as a neck label press
@@ikendoitdotstudio thank you appreciate the information and keep it up 💯🫡
What type of press do you have?
16x20 Auto from Heat Press Nation, you can scope out all my equipment that I use in the links found in the description box 🙏
