Screen Printing T-Shirts: What Are These Patterns In My Print Surface?

Posted on October 10, 2019 by Catspit Productions

Hello Screen Troopers! Here’s a quick tips video to help out with a common but minor issue you might encounter when screen printing your t-shirts. Even when you have all your ducks in a row you may notice imperfections in the print surface from time to time. While there are many reasons a print may have imperfections in the surface, there are a couple that are easy to overlook. This video briefly touches on this topic and gives you the knowledge to avoid it. It may be something more likely to happen when printing on lower mesh counts and high deposits of ink in wide open areas. And automatic presses may or may not experience this at all. Well I hope it helps someone out. I had a few people with this problem recently. Now I’m off to help others in the Catspit Screen Printing Militia. I hope you enjoy and thanks for watching!

AWT Accu-Print High-Tech HL/RP™ Flatbed Press

Posted on September 20, 2019 by Catspit Productions

The Accu-Print High-Tech HL/RP™ flatbed printer combines the leading attributes of the High-Tech HL™ and RP™ printers. The result is a four-post microprocessor-controlled flatbed printing system for high-speed production of virtually any rigid panel (glass, wood, metal, etc). It offers exceptional ease of operation and print quality along with the ruggedness to handle heavy panels.

The registration system has one electric eye for missed sheets. Further enhancing its versatility are features such as automatic transport, parallel peel control and vacuum system with blowback.

APHT_HLRP-1

The remote diagnostic feature, which uses a phone modem connection to link the onboard microprocessor to the A.W.T. diagnostic computer, reduces costly service calls and cuts downtime by up to 80%. The print area ranges from 22 x 30″ (56 x 76 cm) to 52 x 120″ (132 x 305 cm), with print speeds up to 500 pieces per hour.

The Ranar Scamp DX-200 Satisfies The Most Demanding Home Printers

Posted on September 11, 2019 by Catspit Productions

Check out this review that came into the ecommerce site today. It’s about the little mini belt dryer from Ranar. The Scamp DX-200 is a 110v that runs on a 20-amp breaker. It’s what we call industrial 110v. In homes 20 amp breakers would be found on lines going to the kitchen and/or garage. Usually they are installed in those places because home builders know that is where plug in appliances or tools will be used.

DX200_004

Have a quick read:

“This conveyor dryer has increased my in-home shop’s production immensely! It heats up very quickly and offers a very consistent cure. This is a SOLID machine and it is very evident that this thing is built to last. If you are using a flash dryer to cure your plastisol prints and are looking to take the next step then you NEED this conveyor dyer. You won’t regret it!”

– Ian

Screen Printing T-Shirts: What’s The Best Squeegee Durometer & Size?

Posted on September 6, 2019 by Catspit Productions

Hello Screen Troopers! I had a different video planned for this week since I need to print a few Catspit tee shirts for my brother. This is another of our “best of” series where I answer questions that I receive very often. In this tutorial video I discuss what’s the best squeegee durometer to use when screenprinting tee shirts or other fabrics. Many people look for an all in one solution to things like screen mesh, ink and this is the same case with squeegees. This educational screen printing video will also briefly touch on what’s the best size of squeegee to use. If you’re just starting out I’m sure these 2 questions have crossed your mind. Take a moment and watch this short instructional video that will help your DIY efforts thrive with a little insight on this topic. Now I’m off to help others in the Catspit Screen Printing Militia. I hope you enjoy and thanks for watching!

How To Screen Print Tee Shirts: How Much off Contact Is Too Much?

Posted on July 24, 2019 by Catspit Productions

Hello Screen Troopers! Here’s another “best of” tutorial video about the how much off contact is too much. In screen printing textiles we use what’s known as off contact. It’s something critical to know and this video simply adds to the collection of videos I have on this topic. It’s a simple way to get the point across on an important question I field all too often. Luckily, I am able to solve many people’s problems by asking this question; how high is your off contact? Again, many of you may think this is a trivial topic but It’s all too often I find this to be the culprit of screenprinting gremlins everywhere. Now I’m off to help others in the Catspit Screen Printing Militia. I hope you enjoy and thanks for watching!

How To Screen Print Tee Shirts: What’s The Best Screen Frame Size For Printing T-Shirts?

Posted on June 24, 2019 by Catspit Productions

Hello Screen Troopers! Here’s another “best of” tutorial video about the different sizes of screens. Many people ask me when first starting to screen print, what size frame should I use for printing tee shirts? There are many different sizes of screens available out there and the smallest ones are most usually made of wood. Speedball is a common hobby wood screen and they’re available from suppliers like Dick Blick. But for commercial screen printing where we are using a commercial grade bench press or rotary press, we use specific screen sizes. In this educational video I briefly discuss screen size and I provide advice on which screen frame size is best to use with manual screen printing and automatic screen printing. You may think this is a no brainer but many people seem to struggle with this simple yet important question. And I’m here to help out as usual. I hope you enjoy and thanks for watching!

Screen Printing Tee Shirts: How Much Squeegee Pressure Is Too Much?

Posted on June 14, 2019 by Catspit Productions

Hello Screen Troopers! This is a very special video. I made this video about 1 year ago and totally forgot about it until I saw it in my editing folder without any work done so I investigated and was happily surprised. This was made with my older cameras so there is some focusing issues and the audio is not as good as it is now. But the tutorial video is an important one for manual textile screenprinting. Therefore, I decided to upload it to buy me some more time as I make a few new videos. So, if you have ever wondered how much squeegee pressure is too much then this video is a must see. I briefly discuss how you know when you’re using too much squeegee press and what it can do to your printing. I hope the video quality is not too bad and forgive me for the delayed intro as I seemed to have left a little too much footage on the front end. It’s a great educational video though so I’m sure you’ll enjoy it. Thanks for watching!
