Photo Emulsion
1. In your dark room, run a bead of emulsion across the top of your screen.
Exposing Your Screen
The best way for you to expose the screen is with a 150 watt lightbulb.
1. Place a light with a 150 watt lightbulb shining down onto a black matte surface. Bristol board would work well.
3. Place the prepared screen on your black matte background. The “back” of the screen (the non recessed part) will be facing up.
TIP
The actual Screen Printing!
1. Lay your tee shirt out and smooth it.
2. Put your newly created silk screen over your tee shirt so the recessed side of the screen is facing upwards.
4. Drag the paint over your image with your squeegee without applying pressure . This is called flooding the image.
5. Then, going in the same direction, run over the image with the squeegee again with some pressure to push the ink through the screen on to the fabric.
7. Hang your piece to dry.
9. When the ink is very dry, heat set the image by pressing it with a dry iron.

Content: So I simplified everything about screen printing at home so that virtually anyone could do it no matter how much space or money you have. As long as you have a 250v generator and a common counterfeiting machine in your house you’ll be good to go. Just kidding. You’re just going to need a strong lightbulb, a couple of pieces of glass and some screen printing ink for you to try out this t shirt printing technique yourself at home. How to Screen Print
In this tutorial I’m going to show you how to make your own screen printing frame, how to burn it and how to use your frames to screen print on any fabric. So let me explain the type of screen printing I’ll be showing you. It is screen printing with a light sensitive photo emulsion. In general terms, you paint a screen with light sensitive paint, let it cure, put your image on top of the paint when it’s dried and cure it under lights. The area of the screen that is covered up by your image will not get cured because it won’t be exposed to light. Therefore after your screen is “exposed”, all the area under your image will just wash away under water.
