New Prints for a New Brand!!

Hey wel i just got done with an order from friend who is looking to start his own brand. Well i am helping him out and gave him a good price so that he can sell his shirts but we both make some profit! this design was pretty simple jus the brand name "The Lift Five" he is coming up with the ideas and going to let me know to i should have some good business through him!

this is the shirts





Here it is still on the press right before curing!












This is the Grey one the reverse of the color shirts











This is the all white black one!






So for this time i got great use out of my Silver Press from Ryonet. This press moves nice and has great registration. I also used ryonets white ink and jet black ink and they came out great! a suggestion, probably for any white ink, mix it really good so that it is creamy and it will be easier to work with. Also i was using a 110 mesh and i had coated the emulsion on 2 times so the stencil was thick.

I also gave the push method with the squeege a shot because i heard the white comes out better and i found personally it was harder and came out ugly and stucko like. So i think for now i will stick to the pull method for the squeege and get my results! the high angle and light but smooth pull gave me nice results. My friend liked them and sold them already!

There was only 6 shirts to make for now but there will be more to come!
