Thanks for the comment. From the video we are using the water based ink which is from Speedball Arts. This kind of ink can be dried up by hair drier. For more safety, you may use iron for further heating.
I have watched a lot of screen printing tutorials but this one is definitely one the best ones. Great music choice to. Thank you for posting this!
Absolutely the best screen printing video on yiutube. Thank you peteratwaihang, this is what i've been looking for. You're the best!
Thanks! This a good review for me. It's been a few years since I've done screen printing but I have a job interview for a screen printing company. So I'm glad I watched this video! :)
I enjoyed watching you print the tshirt. :) Great video!!
From the video we are using water based ink. So you can use water to clean the screen stencil. And the image can still keep. So you can print the same image later again.
From the video we are using water based colours. After printing you should use hair drier for drying. Then use iron to heat both side of the t-shirts. Be careful about the over heat. That will damage your clothes. Then your image can keep after washing. Hotpress can make multiple colours images easier. But the image is fading out easily. And the printed sheet is very thick.
From the video we are using Adobe Illustrator for drawing the artwork. Sorry we are not good in Corel Draw too. I hope you can find the books from bookshop.
actually the best explanation ever... thanks!
It's been 10 years I'm fascinated with how you did the screen printing. And now, in 2021, I have my own kit to do the same even though the tools aren't complete as yours. I have only screen that I use again and again, the emulsion, rubber and the paint. The rest, I use kind of tools I got from kitchen 😂
Among all the vids on screen printing, yours is the one I'm gonna follow. :) Thanks man :)
Thank you for posting this, it's nice to see a really great print from someone who didn't spend thousands of dollars on a setup. I use the sun to burn my screen too!
Very easy to understand. I like how the shirts turned out. Thanks for uploading this.
This is the best screen printing video ever...
So good explained...

1. You can try to use UV LAMP. Then you can expose your screen indoor and in the night.
2. That is adhesive spray.
3. That is squeegee.
4. We recommend using Speedball Ink. That is easy to handle for all of us. And it is water based. Easy to clean the screen after the printing.

When the ink is dried, you can wash many times. Just like other t-shirts.
Thank you. That was very helpful.

You can coat the emulsion in dim light room actually. However you should do the job smooth and quickly.
Yes you can apply photo emulsion in the lit room. But please turn off almost all the light.
And after using the photo emulsion, please put it back in the dark place. For example put the bottle of the emulsion in a black plastic bag and then put inside the drawer.
We are using water based ink. You can use water to clean the screen after printing. Besides you can use hair drier to drying the printed ink.
The adhesive spray can stick the t-shirt on wooden board firmly. That can improve the printing result.
That is adhesive spray. After using this, the t-shirt can be sticked on the board. This can improve the printing quality.
If you are going to use water based colour inks, you should print on cotton t-shirts. We suggest using water based colours. They can dry on normal temperature. And easy to clean your screen after printing.
If the exposure time is correct, the used the screen can keep washing and reusing. Be careful the dryer may be too hot. That may melt the screen mesh. But if you just want a quick drying, that is okay for using drier.
We put on the glass, then we will use four clamps to push down the glass. This is very important. So the image film can touch the screen very closely. When exposure the screen, the light cannot go inside the image areas.
This was a great video. You explained it so well. I think I will try screen printing.
That is blue colour ink. We are using water based colour ink in this video. So after printing you can use water to clean the screen.
You may join some screen printing course in your local area. Thanks for watching our videos.

Awesome video. I like that you left the sounds in, it sounded cool when you were taping off the screen borders. Also laughed at the super american shirt being printed by an asian guy :)
In the sunny day, the exposure time can be shorter. If your image film is black enough a little bit longer exposure time is more safety.
Long Live Mr hongkong guy....this is an ossom vidz part from the rest...very informative ...thanks!

Some people will use pen to make a mark on the screen, so your film can put on the same position. Besides you can see through the screen actually, you can use your 2nd colour screen to find the correct position with the 1st colour you printed.
me has hecho acordar de mi infancia cuando mi padre preparaba sus trabajos de serigrafia...Nice Video!
Did you mean the transparency film ? You can use tracing paper to print the image. You can use normal inkjet printer to do this. Please see our other videos about this making process.
You can use water to clean the screen and print different colour. If you want to make multiple colours design, you have to separate each colour and make different screens. This is possible, but use much time.
This video helped me a lot, thank you so much!
This video is showing how to make your image on the screen. We are using sun ray to expose the image on the screen. Then using that screen for t-shirt printing.
That is the adhesive yellow glue. Please visit our website for more information. We have a combo set kit that is included every things to make the screens.

Yes we are based in Hong Kong and in Kowloon side. Please visit our website for the address.
We are using film for the sun exposure. But some people they cannot output the film by themselves, so they should try print the tracing paper from their own printer. We are making a new video to explain more about this, please watch later.
No necessary to stay in the dark room. You can dry up the emulsion in the dim light room. When the emulsion is dried, you should expose your screen quickly.
I'm not sure also revealed can be revealed before the sun does not know but one question I can rebel with a focus on how many? wats and how long has very good video
Awesome tutorial!!!!!Great Job!!!!
After printing, you should use hair drier for drying. And then use iron to heat the both side of the image. If you are not in rush, you should hold it up for over 1 day. Then the ink will be totally dried.
From the video we are using 150T / INCH screen mesh. That is good for t-shirt or paper printing.
@MegaLeofric We are using the normal spray. That is used for gardening or car cleaning.
When you expose the screen under the sun. You should be noted about the sun power (UV Ray) and the sun ray angle.
Awesome guys!
Did you see we are using four clamps to press down the glass ? So the image film and the screen can touch each other closely.
From the video, we are using water based ink. They are good for fabric printing.
Yes one color for one screen. So if you want to print multiple color design, you should repeat the screen making process to make more screens.
Yes this is called silk screen printing. From the video we are printing t-shirts by this printing skill.
From the video, we are using sun ray for screen exposure. From our homepage you can find more information about this skill.
That is adhesive spray, so your t-shirt can stick on the wooden board firmly. This can improve the printing quality.
@oneamongful From the video, we are using water based ink. So we can use water to clean the screen. We think that is better for home made style.

Maganda yan kapatid ganyan pala magprint thanks for sharing
Really awesome man.... done a fantastic work...

Today we are over 100 thousands. Thanks for watching.
Yes we can send our products to Australia. The delivery time around 10 days. Please send email to me what do you want to order. Then we can sum up the price with delivery cost.
I loved your video, it's very well explained. I just want to share something with you, I don't know why (maybe because of the materials that I use) but I only let the screen for 12 seconds on the sun and that's enough (I'm living in Durango, Méxco) and if I need to work by night I use a normal light (a lamp) 100 watts and let it for 4 mins and 30 seconds. Saludos amigos!
Great! I'll start working on my first shirt and I'll take note of your website and email at any point that I need to order something online.
Thank you!
You can use this process to make your own screen. But you should choose the suitable ink that is good for balloon printing.
We are using adhesive spray on the printing platform. So the t-shirt can stick on the wooden board. Then the printing result will be improved.
You should use hair drier to dry the colour first. Then you can wash the t-shirt many times and the image can still hold.
We did not sure you can use other materials to replace diazo. You have to try by yoursleves. The emulsion is specialized for screen exposure. We hope you can find the suppliers near your living areas.
From the video the screen size is 12" x 16". The border about 1.5 inch width.
I am not sure about that. You may try by yoursleves. We are using UV light for the exposure. We hope you can find the suitable equipment.
@magicboy1992 In the video, we are using 150T / inch screen mesh. We feel that is good for almost image designs.
When we are exposure the screen, we are using transparency film. The film is from output company. You cannot print from your home ink jet printer. If you are using tracing paper, you can use your home printer for printing your image, just like the video.
Yes you can use tracing paper for the sun light exposure. Please our video named "Screen Printing 2013". Then you can understand more about this skill.
You should use warm water to dissolve the diazo powder. And then mix with emulsion to become sensitive emulsion. Then you should use a scoop to put this mixed emulsion on the screen.
The white powder that is stencil remover. You should use around 500 ML water to dissolve the powder. Then you can use this solution to remove the exposed frames.
thank you for give more information
I really enjoyed this video, very quick clean and to the point. I am in the middle of trying to set up a little printing station at home and this is just another little help. Thank you!
