Screen Printing: How to MONOPRINT!

[@GemExtractor]

Are single strokes possible? Could you continually layer paint on the same paper?

Why not use screen printing ink?

Hi I washed my screen directly when I was finished but still Te paint dried and I was not able to remove it, the only way has had been was it before I even finished. I there a way to remove the paint maybe a cloth washing product or something. Renate

Hi Lewis can I use any type of acrylic paint?

[@Artfulbox]

Hello Diana, you can use any acrylic paint, but it would have to be mixed 1:1 with a screen printing medium. The paint we have included in the artful box is pre mixed for ease of use. Hope this is helpful!

Has anyone managed to do this without the paint drying into the screen? 😵‍💫🥺

[@Artfulbox]

The paint may stain the screen but it'll still be usable. If the paint has actually dried into the screen, try leaving the screen in a hot (but not boiling) sink of water for 30-45 minutes. Once you remove the screen from the sink, scrub the paint with the scouring pad side of a kitchen sponge, or failing that, use the light pressure from either a pressure washer or a house. Hope this helps!
