[@Ryonet]

If you don't want a lot of build up then you should just print your design directly to a shirt using standard screen printing method. Regardless of mesh size you'll still need a thick stencil of emulsion to make this proccess work. Although, I will add that when you heat press the t-shirt at the end it does flatten out the design and make the ink fee a bit softer.

[@XHover]

I use this method for my ebay business and it's great!! I get everything from ryonet. The only bad thing is after printing over 100 transfers a day it gets really dusty. Wish you guys had an ink that wouldn't need the powder.

[@prot-shirtco.665]

Very educational video. Awesome step-by-step instructions.

[@Ryonet]

Hopkins T-Shirt Co., Thanks for commenting! Visit our blog for more tips blog.screenprinting.com/

[@Ryonet]

Mark the screen and at the top of each section write 4 minutes, 6, 8 and 10. Produce a piece of art with type, shapes and even some halftones and place it in the 4 minute section, cover the remaining 3 sections with the black sheet; expose for 4 minutes.After the initial exposure move your art and sheet to the next section, covering the 4 minute section with a light safe sheet as well, you only want the 6 minute section exposed to your light source.

Thank you.

[@Ryonet]

Awesome! Glad we could help!

[@reluctantlemming]

that was awesome - thank you!

[@Ashleysdesign]

Nice video. We do enjoy using the Ryopaque inks in our shop. Works better on a lot of shirts instead of having to setup another screen with a white under base.

[@Ryonet]

Totally. Thanks for the comment!

[@ImportRace]

Good info and video

[@Ryonet]

Willflex makes great inks, so I wouldn't doubt so. Super good brand. We just prefer the adhesive powder so we don't have to mix inks before we put it on the screen.

[@ardithconley817]

I am going to use this process a lot.

[@Ryonet]

There's a lot of factors that go into an exact number. Around 10-20 washes. Have you tried our R20 Water-based inks??? Great water-based ink!

[@Ryonet]

Well if you already have the heat press and you already have the screen printing press then all you need is three more things. A teflon sheet for heat transferring, the heat transfer paper and heat transfer powder adhesive. I left a new link in the description titled "The Supplies You Need:"click that link and it will take you to a page with all the products you need to get started.

[@isrealhernandez2770]

Ive learned that re-heatpressing for 2-3 seconds without the transfer paper but with a teflon sheet instead removes all excess adhesion powder residue.

[@Ryonet]

Thanks for sharing!

[@XaYaZaZa]

Also run it through the drier and the powder will disappear

[@Ryonet]

Honestly wash tests we've done have shown that plastisol heat transfers last less time. Although the ink is the same you're throwing the Adhesive powder in the mix. The adhesive powder is what makes the plastisol re-stick to the t-shirt. When the adhesive powder breaks down in the wash the plastisol losses it's bind to the t-shirt. When you screen print directly to the t-shirt there's no adhesive required for the ink to stick to the t-shirt.

[@Ryonet]

You can defiantly use a higher mesh when transfer printing, give it a whirl ::) Ryan

[@INK2AIR]

Great Video Ryan! Looking forward to make Transfers with ur Products! Thanks!!!

[@ganiumahama3797]

[@FictionFigure]

Great video man! You should do a video on screen printing skateboards if you can.

[@Ryonet]

[@Ryonet]

Our pleasure. We mention in the video that there are multiple ways of accomplishing plastisol heat transfers, with that said we just suggest this method because, we have the most experience and highest consistency of success applying this method. Perhaps you should try buying the products listed above in the description and let us know your results. We'd love to see how your theory works out for you. Keep us posted.

[@MrALJawder]

you are brilliant, are the transfer paper reusable for another print screen ?

[@Ryonet]

mohamed aljawder Not once used they are not

[@MrALJawder]

Ryonet so they are only one time usage , can plastisol printed t-shirt be iron on the face of t-shirt? does ironing will spoil the plastisol screen printed design on the t-shirt?

[@jungasendo1057]

very clear tutorial. thank you RyoPaque

[@Ryonet]

Jun Gasendo Thanks for the comment!

[@sam111880]

Its a good explanation as i was only learning the photoresist process never thought about special transfer paper just onto fabrics. But i guess once you got it transferred onto a screen you could transfer onto anything metal , glass, plastics ,...etc as long as you have the proper paints,sealers ,...etc for the type of object. Because the screen is the stencil at that point.

[@exuviumisopods]

Great. So you use those transfer papers only once?

[@Ryonet]

Good morning! yes, they are one use.... while i have to admit, i've never tried using them more than once. To get the best economy out of the paper, i will gang up logos, meaning if i'm doing some logos for hats or inside labels, i'll fit a bunch on the sheet and then cut them apart after printing.... Happy printing!

[@hancockscreenprinting3818]

I did see another video about storing the transfer paper in a plastic air tight container. Then adding a couple of salt bags, the ones you get in a new sneaker box. That way they will last longer.

[@Ryonet]

Hancock Screenprinting I have heard of these tactics before but have not personally tried them, if they come from a good source its definitely worth it, couldn't hurt much. Ryan

[@StarChild.no1]

You can go as high as 305 @55lpi if you use a first down base like Wilflex TransClear- The ink will split from the first down 100% and also hold your fine halftone dots in place.

Do you have any video to print 2 colors in a polypropylene bags . You know this is very sensitive to the heat . Whatever video help screen printing directly or using transfer paper

I appreciate the reply, but this only answers part of my question. I need to know about the entire kit, including the actual Screen, the squeegee, the Ink to use, the print/stencil, etc., etc.. You only gave the papers required & adhesive powder. Where can I get a whole kit that has everything from step 1 all the way down to the end? Thanks again.

[@Theawaislatif]

hi Ryonet i am new to heat transfer printing, can you please tell me what type of flash cure you are using, as our flash cure taking long time to cure and eventually burning the paper. i can not see orange light of lamps on the panel while curing, so am wondering what type of flash cure you are using to dry the ink! by the way great video.

[@Ryonet]

Awais Latif the flash dryer is this onewww.silkscreeningsupplies.com/product/LGFL1800, try raising the flash dryer so the heat is not so direct.

[@Anthony-fd9jt]

When I do the wash test the print stays on but the problem is that the edges slightly lift but the print is solid and on the garment. What could be the problem.

[@Ryonet]

Hey Anthony. For the layer of ink you used for your adhesive powder - did it cover the entire image?

[@blakkbeauty32]

how do you shrink the paper if you do not have one of the dryers as you did in the video? how would i do this at home?

[@Ryonet]

Brenshevia Baker You need at least a flash dryer in order to do this, if you have a flash dryer you can pre heat/shrink under that.

[@viktorperalta3090]

Do you sell the adhesive glue so I dont have to use the powder

Do you have any of the clear ink to put on the back before the powder if you don’t have a solid color background?

[@Ryonet]

Can you rephrase that? We're a little confused, sounds like two questions in one.

[@breinne19]

@ryonet is it possible to do waterbased ink heat transfer? thanks?

[@jasonenz4522]

this video helped a lot!!! Q- wouldn't making another screen for a clear underbase. or screen printed transfer glue, be so much easier and less...dusty? or is the powder giving the best results? thanks!!!!!!!!!!!

[@Ryonet]

Hey there! With these heat transfer sheets, the powder is an important part of the transfer process! The transfer powder is what facilitates the actual transfer process between the gel cured ink and the shirt. The powder can be a little dusty, true, but remember that you don't need to use a lot! Just enough to cover the image, then you can tap the rest off. :)

[@faithentclothing]

will this work for hats as well? will the transfer hold up as

[@Ryonet]

No additive required :) just powder the print before you run it through the conveyor dryer.

[@StarChild.no1]

That's an adhesive base/backing (last down) like TransFlex you are referring to, where the ink sticking to the garment (wetting) is problematic. The first down bases are meant for 4 color process and spot process types of heat transfer production. Where higher mesh counts and lower stencil thickness are required..

[@vinhnguyen-hx3sy]

This heat transfer paper can using againt ?

[@danyalbhatti3772]

which heatpress should we use for screen transfers? is there anny diff between sublimation heatpresses and screens?

[@Ryonet]

Great questions! Heat presses for sublimation are the same :)

[@danyalbhatti3772]

+Ryonet thanks for your generous reply. iam getting a 5 in one printer on which I can use mugs caps etc..will that work ok on screen transfer papers?

[@danyalbhatti3772]

Sir u didn't cut the rest of the paper mean other part then the design. does it draw a line on shirt..like In sublimation

[@Ryonet]

If the heat press or sublimation paper is smaller than the shirt itself, then yes, it will likely leave a mark. As for your question on if transfer paper will work or not, I could not say. You would want to contact the manufacturer of the 5 in 1 printer.

[@danyalbhatti3772]

+Ryonet thanks

[@sam111880]

Finally i get that you can transfer not only to fabrics but also paper. I am curious the iron on transfers you can purchases at an arts/craft store how they differ. I get you can also purchase heat transfer ink jet paper or laser paper. But this paper seems very specific to screen printing inks. I am just wondering if somebody can do a video on how the different transfer papers are made to explain why one cant be substituted for the other. Also some arts/craft iron on objects look to be the same as the screen printing paper ones. But then again there is the ink jet toner transfer paper...etc

[@TheRealScottFree]

What T-shirt brand is that? I like the neck line on it

[@Ryonet]

SFREEMUSIC1 That was a gildan I believe

[@jasonenz4238]

What can I add to white to get a soft, bright, opaque pressed print? Thanks.

[@Ryonet]

Hey there! If you're looking to get your white ink smoother and easier to work with, you can use a little curable reducer, no more than 10% added by weight, though the less added the better. You want to be careful not to add too much reducer, or you will lose opacity. Heat pressing a design will always create a softer feel than traditional screen printing, so that is another factor to keep in mind. You can find our curable reducer here: www.screenprinting.com/wilflex-epic-curable-reducer

[@jasonenz4238]

Ryonet what about softhand base?

[@randolphrogers3561]

Is there a type of printer compatible for the peeling paper? & where can I get the paper?

[@davidreed1350]

Can you choke the underbase on a multi color.....meaning will the powder glue stick to the top color when flashed. I'm wondering if the top color that bleeds over the underbase, I'm wondering if the top overbleed will stick to the shirt

[@Ryonet]

Morning David and happy Wednesday. Couple different ways of basing. (i heard it on the street that there's a video coming for this exact thing) One way is to actually spread/stroke the base to be larger than the image and then use a clear instead of white. The other is exactly what you mentioned, choking the base more than normal. the top color that overhangs the base will normally grab enough of the powder to stick fine. hope this helps for the moment. Happy printing!

[@hancockscreenprinting3818]

Thanks!! :-) Great video

[@HottKitz]

I have a Heat Press Machine that I paid $300+ for & I would like to use a plastisol transfer paper. What is the best way to transfer plastisol onto sheet paper for a heat press transfer? What is the cheapest kit to create the plastisol to paper?

[@scary_mouse]

Thanks for this great video! Couple of questions: 1. How many transfers do you think can be made per hour using this method? 2. When you printed the black shirt it had that white stuff on it, I guess it was the adhesive powder? How to avoid that? Maybe there are other ways to do it without a powder? Thanks

[@Ryonet]

gvy88kz 1. I would say manually roughly 100-120, 2. To avoid the adhesive powder, shake the transfer paper more vigorously, or you can use a screen printable adhesive and a 3rd screen to apply the adhesive instead of using powder.

[@stewartmarketing704]

do you sell a screen printable adhesive?

[@dreampopmusic]

as in how many washes before any cracking starts to happen. personally I prefer the softer hand of water based but plastisol seems to be cheaper.

[@rahuls973]

can we print with glow in the dark ink on transfer paper and store it for later use?

[@Ryonet]

Most definitely! Just make sure it's plastisol :)

[@XxxCR1SPYxxX]

+Ryonet do you need a underbase cant you just put the powder sr8 on the red ink ?

[@kcsd0803]

XxxCR1SPYxxX- If you did not want the white background inside the logo then yes. This is the same as printing a single color logo.

+Darkside Graphix iheard without underbase itll crack? white n black dont crack as easy for some reason ive noticed. should i do white underbase on top of blue or just blue on blue or just one layer of ink is good enough? imight just order them theyre only 2$

[@kcsd0803]

If you not using the adhesion powder it will crack. You can do just single color prints.

[@majesticcamisetasenquito2804]

Hi Ryan great videos i want to make plastisol transfers but finding it difficult in Ecuador the transfer paper for plastisol i can get, but instead of the powdered adhesive they have given me a paste? make a pass of the paste on the screen first onto the paper then the ink , use the heat gun then ready to go, is this true do you know of this technique? then i am offered a special ink called sublimata for screen printing, with this they say i just run the ink onto the paper no need for adhesive , any advice on the first process i mentioned would be great cheers

[@TrifectaD]

Would this process work with your RyoCharge for the softer hand??

[@Ryonet]

Hey there! This would not work with RyoCharge, as you have to achieve proper cure temp and dwell time when curing any type of discharge. Because of the nature of a heat transfer, with the gel cure and eventual press cure, RyoCharge can't be used for heat transfers. By doing a plastisol heat transfer, however, you will be getting a softer hand than if you did a traditional plastisol print, as the heat presses compresses the ink down into the shirt, making it softer.

[@kevinr487]

Curious... why the need to put marks on the pallet around the corners of the paper? It seems to me it's not important to put the paper in the same spot for each print. What am I missing?

[@Ryonet]

This is to center your print on the paper and helps you watch if the paper moved or not. Just a reference point. If you use a platen tape on your platen, you can always just replace the tape when doing a different print.

[@kevinarnold939]

Did you do a choke on the under base or was it true to the edge with 100% reg?

[@Ryonet]

It's always good to choke your underbase back by .5 to 1 pt in your artwork. this helps to ensure it does not show on the side :)

[@urjnlegend]

what is the clear backer I can use, on black fn ink I would like to make a transfer with?

[@arbias05]

+Ryonet in the dark garment will the powder disappear after washing the garment ??

[@Ryonet]

The powder is an adhesive that sticks to the plastisol transfer and holds the plastisol to the shirt. There shouldn't be powder on the garment.

but is too hard to get rid of it with hands or is any other technique to remove it clearly ?

[@peterdaye1033]

Currently we use a flash dryer to cure (in the process of buying a conveyor dryer). Is it possible to preshrink and cure the transfer paper all with a flash dryer?

[@annieg1424]

Hi there. I have a couple of questions for you. 1. What is the cleaning stuff called that you use to clean off plastisol ink off the screen? 2. Is there a special screen that had to be used to use the plastisol ink with glitter? - I bought plastisol ink with glitter cause I’m making a basketball mom shirt and I would like the basketball to be glittery, but when I was testing out the ink in a small portion of fabric the glitter was not passing through? It just stayed on the top of it. Am I doing something wrong? 3. How long do you heat press the plastisol ink? I know it has to be at 320 but how long should I actually leave it pressing for? 4. Have you used the emulsion hardner stuff before for your screens and how well did that work if so? Thanks.

[@dah9vandals]

yes

[@NARRASSAFilmes]

This way is better than Direct to garment printing ?

[@Ryonet]

Juliano Guerra It really depends, for somethings it is, for other things it isn't

[@NARRASSAFilmes]

for example?

[@Ryonet]

Smaller runs, tend to be cheaper to run on a DTG, especially if there are a lot of colors involved. Spot color jobs that have a higher quantity are cheaper to print on a press. that it would be on DTG.

[@Seemsayin]

Ryonet Not only that, but screen printing opens up design possibilities that DTG can't begin to match (halftones, fine art, etc.). DTG is great, if the design is relatively simple, and the run is short. Complex designs take forever to cut & weed.

[@resinapparelco433]

So if I order plastisol heat transfers from a print shop, can I use my heat press to cure the garment afterwards too?

[@Ryonet]

Howdy Kyle! After pressing the heat transfer with your heat press, that garment already would be ready for wear!! : )

[@gagankumar2363]

sir i want to know.what color we use in screen printing for transfer printing

[@katiehometown415]

+GAGAN KUMAR Should be any color workable.

[@Ryonet]

Actually when you heat transfer a plastisol print you are only gelling the ink on top of the garment as opposed to printing the ink directly into the garment. That's where a screen printing will work better. Plastisol heat transfers are only good up to a certain number of washes where as a properly cured screen print can last forever.

[@ptahra646]

Are those cracks in the image part of the design, or a flaw in this screen printing process?

[@danyalbhatti3772]

whats the benefit of transfering pprint on paper, if we can print it directly on shirt? and secondly then whats the need of heatpress? confused :(

[@Ryonet]

Hey there Danyal! Thanks for asking! Transfers can be used in a variety of ways. Their main use is for live, traveling screen printers, and for shops that do the same design multiple times throughout the year. This allows you to put the design on paper, store it/file it away, or carry it with you to a location with a heat press, like a concert. The heat press is used to actually transfer the design from the paper to the garment - effectively curing it.

[@danyalbhatti3772]

You can use a flash dryer, heatpress, or a heat gun. Just take note that a heat gun can be inconsistent as it doesn't cover the whole print. You would have to cover the whole print

How to silkscreen glitters on transfer paper?

[@GraphicDesign309]

This is super tricky, but certainly possible. Use a 25m screen with a good quality glitter ink. You will likely need to go over it a few times to acquire a nice result of glitter but give yourself plenty of time. If you over-cure and don't let the ink cool before re-printing you will run into problems. Key is to be patient and charge accordingly due to the added time and knowledge. Not to contradict this excellent video, but with glitter you can do a double pass without flashing. It's the exception that proves the rule. :)
