I figured I would help The Print Fam start the year off correct with some screen print hacks. For #7 you can and should hit the blank screen with UV light to harden the emulsion. Also test the liquid tape on a few screens before applying it to all of them.

I realize these tips are targeted at printers who have a larger output than little ol me, but I found them useful as well. Thanks! 🤘

2:36 when I worked at a print shop, I would always have to be with the paint brush filling in all these pin holes. We did giant screens too for large signs, so it was a pretty tedious process.

They make stuff to fill up pinholes. I don't know what its actually called but we use this stuff called blocking fluid. Its just like your emulsion trick but I think it just needs to air dry instead of harden like emulsion dose. I also don't know if its different for auto presses or not but your last tip is just a smasher plate. Its a screen with a Teflon coating on the bottom and then instead of a squeegee its a rubber roller. I use it almost every time I am printing white onto cotton or blended shirts.

Where I work most customers will get their prints sans flattening. On occasion, basically when I feel like it, I will post-flatten the screen prints in the transfer press, for maybe five seconds or so. It does make for a nicer feel.

To add to tip #5…If you are trying to spot remove a piece of emulsion in a tight spot you can put a barricade (example-tape a couple of rulers or something around the spot around the spot) in case you are slightly inaccurate on your first couple of shot attempts. I’m only reaping the benefits of tip #1 the last half year but it’s a game changer. Get those thin thread 157/48’s and thank Cam later!

Not to be a stick in the mud, but before you go and liquid tape all your screens, try and reclaim one which you've left the tape around the outside. These act very differently in your washout booth. Some don't mind it, others (your's truly) hate it.
