Good afternoon ALL, I am very happy to be part of your forum, i have been very much facinated by screen printing and there is something i am missing out here which i need your help, The difficulty i am facing is how does this transfer process takes place supposing i have an image stored on my laptop and i want to reproduce it on a T shirt, what steps am i suppose to take and what are the needs i most have to film this image on my nylon, i believe i need the sun and a dark room but what are the steps to take and what material do i need
Taking into account the fact that i do not want to cut a stencil, because i have a large image i want to produce on a cloth at no cost, i just want steps to transfer the image like photographers do?
Thanks alot
