How to use silkscreens on ceramics

[@timothybowen2848]

Can you use wax resist over the image and then glaze in a different color other than clear?

[@HobbyCeramicraft]

Don't think so. Wouldn't expect wax to wash out of screen or mix well with medium. I would use stroke and coat, then fire it . Then paint and the fired areas will act as a resist as there is glaze within the stroke and coat paint which will then be shiny and resist the colour you paint on top.

[@gcemmerling4622]

Can you apply this to an already glazed product, then put more glaze on top and bake?

[@HobbyCeramicraft]

Not with the paint used in this video. I would think you could print with silkscreens on top of a glazed surface, however you would need a different paint product that would be fired into the glaze surface.

Please can you let me know where we can buy those screens/ have our own made?

[@HobbyCeramicraft]

We sell all the silkscreens shown in the UK. hobbyceramicraft.co.uk If you want one made of your own design then you could contact the company we buy from directly, maycocolors.com

I have tried this several times on free ware and the pattern pops off in the bisc firing, is this only suitable on bisc ware ?

[@HobbyCeramicraft]

Hi, sorry, I'm not sure what 'free ware' is. The reason a paint may pop off in a firing is the difference between the expansion and contraction rates of the products.

[@kiddywriter]

Are you refiring the piece after applying the silkscreen? And is the silkscreen over clear glaze?

[@HobbyCeramicraft]

Clear glaze over the top, then fire.

Hi, I have screenprintg machine and owen up to 1000C. Where is posiblle to buy inks?

[@HobbyCeramicraft]

We are using a black underglaze product made by Mayco. Other black ceramic pigments would work..

[@lanlam2114]

Can I put them in dish washer pls

[@HobbyCeramicraft]

White earthenware clay can be put in the dishwasher, however it will be less hard wearing than a higher temperature fired clay such as Stoneware or Porcelain.

[@reginavitanyi3700]

Does it need any fixing afterwards, and before usage?

[@HobbyCeramicraft]

In this example in the video we would be glazing the outside of the bowl and firing to 1000C

[@HobbyCeramicraft]

Yes. In this example we applied clear glaze then fired to 1000C.

[@canadaverydry]

[@HobbyCeramicraft]

The paint used in this demo was a black underglaze. We used a Mayco Stroke and Coat product.

[@persiancarpenter]

Hi,what size of mesh you used in silk screen ? Thank you

[@HobbyCeramicraft]

Sorry, I do not know the answer to that. We do not manufacture silkscreens.
