Speedball Acrylic Screen Printing Ink, 946ml, 32 Fl. oz, Black 32 Fl Oz

I am a high school coach, so I took the canopy top off our EZ-Up tent & painted our school name & sport. I made a mask out of vinyl decal, laid it where I wanted it, pealed off the application tape, & barely hit it with warm air from a hair dryer to make the decal stick better, so none of the paint bled under. (Do NOT use a heat gun as that might melt your tent top) (Head down to your local sign shop. They will be able to make a professional looking mask, where the letters are pealed away) I rolled a very, very thin layer of screen paint with a 3 inch short nap roller. It turned out great! If I do it again, I think Ill paint on a 2nd coat. The paint was very good quality, nice & thick.

The item arrived with the seal already broken.

Beautiful color on a light base otherwise it sheer on a dark base

This review will probably not help most people looking at this item, but I have to share my success. I watched some you-tube videos showing how to color synthetic hair & then bought this ink & one in dark red to color my synthetic light reddish or copper hair to darker, less bright burgundy. I poured 70% isopropyl alcohol in a clear spray bottle, then spooned a little of ultra blue ink with some of this red in the bottle to make a purplish color. I then sprayed the mixture on some of my cheaper scrunchies first to test it. The brown one with yellow-brown tones did not end up well. But the bright light copper tousled curly scrunchie ended up very usable. It is still slightly lighter than my hair, but will work fine. The ink does make the hair less shiny, but that is a good thing since some synthetic hair is too shiny & my hair is very dry, frizzy, & dull looking anyway. I have some spray oily hair gloss that improved the sheen. You can always go darker with this ink, but not lighter with synthetic hair. A word of caution: I did not listen to others that said to use this in a well ventilated area like outdoors. I have a poor sense of smell probably due to chronic allergies & sinus problems & the smell really did not bother me when I was using it. But it later caused awful migraine-like headaches. I recommend using a mask when you spray if you have to use this indoors. I sprayed over a very, very large bowl I use when I color my human hair pieces. I bet this stuff might stain a white sink. I rinsed in a stainless steel sink & scrubbed it immediately after. Some recommend letting hair dry over several hours or a day or two before washing, then using some type of spray conditioner. This is much easier & simpler than the sharpie method which I have not tried yet. The pictures are of the same scrunchie, same brand, type & color: one colored & one not. One lady used a mix of black & burnt umber ink to make a light silver blonde wig a pretty brown color.

It would be helpful if more information about time were provided. The ink made beautiful prints, but now I am unable to continue until I can get some extender, which I find to be absurd if requiring after only 10 prints. I also do not want to stop every 10 prints to wash the screen because that would be time consuming and it would wear it out.

This is not washable

I bought this ink specifically to print on paper using a 200 TPI screen. Added a little extender to increase the working time and had great results. I would recommend this product for anyone who wants to work with an acrylic ink using a higher thread count screen.

I love this color and it looks great. The only issue I had was the first one I order had blown up in the packaging but they were great and replaced it!

good

I bought this ink to screen print onto cardstock. It works wonderfully. The ink isnt too thick and spreads nicely across the silk screen. The color comes out opaque and dries quickly.
