From Val: You can’t save the ink because it dries up and does not roll out very well. I have not found a way to re-constitute the ink so it is better practice to use small amounts. Fabric is washable after two days. I have not found my ink to fade.

I am stuck in a problem while block printing on fabric and in need for your advice. My prints were very light on fabric. It is because of ink dry very fast or because of my hard rubber brayer. Any suggestion about how to increase drying time of ink also, could soft rubber brayer can solve this problem? I am using water based ink (black pigments,binder and thickner). Speedball inks and brayer are not available here. I have to import them. Which is costly. And i am not sure that they will solve my problem. Thanks
@Stitchinpost
3 жыл бұрын
Yes you could try a soft brayer, as for inks drying too fast I do use a transparent extender. It is made by speedball - I am thinking if you could find an extender of some sort that is water based it might help the quick drying of the inks. I wish I had better advice but I don't know any other inks that would work. When you apply the ink it is really important to be putting on thin layer of ink until you have a nice surface on your block that looks kind of like a wet stamp pad. This will help with your prints being too light. I hope this helps. - Valori

If you're using Speedball Fabric Block printing ink it takes 48 hours for the ink to fully set. The ink will likely be dry to touch in 24 hours but wait the full 48 to wash and wear. If you're using different ink try checking the container for their instructions.

I talked to Val about this and here's what she had to say: Gosh, I am not sure if it can be archival. You can print on canvas, I haven’t ever tried printing on canvas that has a acrylic gesso on it. I have no idea about India ink and if it can be used on canvas. I would test all of these things. Worth the experiment. I can add myself, that you wouldn't want to gesso canvas if it wasn't stretched--if you want to use it for tote bags I would just get regular cotton duck. You could pre-wash it if you wanted to make sure all of the sizing was out of it. If you're wondering if something is archival, contact the manufacturer - they should be able to give you that information. Also, in my personal experience, India Ink is too thin for printing and often runs on fabric. Finally, when I was in college (many years ago) block printing for art prints was done on archival, 100% cotton rag paper. I'm not sure what they do these days... :) ~Paige

This was such a good tutorial, thank you! Im starting to use block printing after carving my designs and was curious to why the paint wasn't behaving well, the outline of my drawing was too thin in the middle of the line, but not on the outside of the line.. So I decided to not use the roll except to spread the paint into the transparent silicon piece, but to press the block stamp straight into the spread out paint! and it worked great too, thicker lines and all covered by the paint.. so I guess it depends on the hand pressure and expertise (I just started btw), this way I tried worked nicely, but how you taught to spread the paint was an essential tip, I wouldn't know if you hadn't told me so thanks again :))

What kind of roller do you use with the ink? Is it foam, or more of a solid material?

Great tutorial. How does the ink do on thinner fabrics? For example, does it dry stiff enough to distort a chiffon sort of scarf fabric? I assume it's fine for tote bags and heavier weight cotton but I'm curious what happens if you're using the fabric for garments.

Hi, Val's on vacation this week so I can't get an answer from the true expert, but while I've never tired tried chiffon I don't think the ink will distort it. The ink doesn't sit on top of the fabric it soaks in more like a dye. I'd try a sample on a small piece to be sure though.

It can get a little stiff if you printed on silk or voile or something light like that. The ink sits on the top of the fibers so it will add a layer and with thinner fabric it can go through the fabric. I have printed on t-shirts and other fabrics that can be used for clothing. - Val

Hi, how do you heat set the ink? What do you suggest to make it permanent?

It will be permanent after two days. But you set with iron if you want.
