INSTRUCTIONS Screen Printing Kit
STEP 1: Prepare the image
(This step would use transparency film from this kit)
- Use transparency film and inkjet printer to print out the image you want, make sure the image is in black to achieve a better opaque effect, it is better to use tape to overlap the 2-3 same films together.
- Print on the non-smooth side of the film, if you print on the glossy uncoated side, the ink will not dry because it is not absorbed by the coating.
STEP 2: Applying Photo Emulsion to the Screen
(This step would use screen printing frame and screen printing squeegee from
this kit)
- Do this step in a dark room since the photo emulsion reacts to light, spread a small amount of the photo emulsion on one side of the screen bottom.
- Use the scoop coater or squeegee to spread a thin layer of the emulsion across the screen(both side), until the whole screen are covered with emulsion. Place your finished screen in a cool dark place for a few hours or overnight to let it dry.
STEP 3: Preparing the Screen for Exposure
(This step would use screen printing frame and transparency film from this
kit)
- When your screen is dry, take your screen out of its cool dark place(but still in a dim area).
- Place the screen on black fabric or other black things, it can help reduce reflection. Turn the screen with the emulsion “back” up.
- Place your image onto the screen IN REVERSE.
- Place a clean piece of glass over the image to hold it tight against the screen.
STEP 4: Exposing the Screen
(This step would use screen printing frame and transparency film from this
kit)
Turn your UV exposure unit on. The time of expose your image will depend
mostly on your light source. There is an example for reference: 10 x 14 inch
screen with 150W bulb and 12 inches height needs 10 minutes exposure.
STEP 5: Washing the Screen
(This step would use screen printing frame from this kit)
- Use a sprayer or hose to spray water at the screen. After a few minutes the screen will start to open up and the image areas will start washing away leaving your “stencil.”
- Dry the screen with newspaper or a towel (Do not rib in case the emulsion is still wet) and leave it to dry off. If the areas do not wash away you may have overexposed the screen, and you will need to use the “emulsion remover”(not
include in this kit) to clean the screen and start the process over, exposing it for much less time.
STEP 6: Tape the screen perimeter
(This step would use screen printing frame and masking tape from this kit)
During the printing process, unwanted ink sometimes leaks through the edges of
the frame and seeps onto the substrate. To prevent this, use masking tape to
cover all the inside edges of youro screen to prevent any ink from leaking
through.
STEP 7: Printing
(This step would use screen printing frame, screen printing squeegee and wood
sticks from this kit)
- Place your screen flat onto the fabric that you are preparing to print (if it is a T-shirt make sure to place a piece of cardboard inside to prevent ink from soaking to the other side). Apply a small glob of ink at the top of side of the image.
- Use wood sticks transfer the ink onto the screen and pull the ink down the screen with the squeegee. Y During the printing process, unwanted ink sometimes leaks through the edges of the frame and seeps onto the substrate. To prevent this, use masking tape to cover all the inside edges of your screen to prevent any ink from leaking through.
STEP 8: Finished work display
After you finished the screen painting work, please clean the wooden frame and
mesh, and put it to dry location, which is convenient for your next use.
