Screen Printing Forum

Im wanting to print onto silk haboti and need to order a screen, what mesh size would I be wanting?

Depends on the ink suitable for the silk and detail of print.

Silk is generally very thin, so you don't want alot of ink on the garment. It would also depend on the garment color as apposed to the ink color. But more than likely a 305 screen mesh would work for most applications on a silk garment. But remember to avoid using inks that may require an underbase, or multi-color print jobs, that may require flashing...I'm sure the flash would burn up the garment.
