SpeedballSpeed Screens for T-Shirt Printmaking

I love these I use them in my classroom each year to make tee-shirts with students, very easy to use and reuse, just wash with COLD water, not hot, after 50+ prints the screens do start to go bad around the edges but that is all I really need them for so for me they work great.

Ok, just thought I'd leave a quick review (as I always rely on reviews before purchases.) I went through 3 screens and almost gave away the extra pack I bought. I tried one more time and doubled the exposure time (using speedball light included in kit) and it finally worked washed clean like a dream, 2 mins tops. 1st screen I screwed up because black paper shifted and wasn't fully under my design so part didn't burn all the way. 2nd screen I stopped rinsing too soon because it looked clear but wasn't clear enough but it had been like 5+ mins so didn't clear enough for paint to pass through. 3rd, I still did the recommended 1 min. but rinsed for like 10 mins and my design started to wash in places it wasn't supposed to and design got "soggy" looking because all the emulsion wasn't washing away. 4th and final time, 2 min exposure, washed off easily & quickly. My design was also a little detailed (distressing) and none of the small pieces washed away!!!! Hope this helps someone not have the same issues I had and save $ and frustration!!

Came in great condition 👍

These are much easier to use at home than spreading emulsion by hand and trying to find somewhere dark to let it dry, but they are MUCH more delicate than screens I've made in a proper studio. I was able to burn some images with a decent amount of fine detail successfully, but after pulling a couple dozen prints the emulsion was falling off in some areas. Great if you're only doing a small run of something, but not if you wanted to make tons of prints.

I followed the instructions PRECISELY - TWICE - and both times the emulsion washed away in a vague blob - not a single line of my design made it. Great concept, it just doesn’t work. At all.
