Outdoor Screen Printing... What ink should I use?

LIKE MIKE PRINTING · October 10th, 2011, 01:48 AM

Hello everybody,

I need some help/advice.

I'm doing a live screen printing workshop next weekend @ an out door event.

I have only used plastisol inks @ my shop and do not have any experience with any other inks.

I was planning on just bringing my small 4-1 press and my flash and just flash drying the shirts as I print them.

But i'm worried the shirts will not cure correctly.

Does anyone have any suggestions on what inks to use, how to dry them and any other useful advice for someone doing an event like this for the first time.

Any advice would help!

Thanks in advance.
