What is silkscreening?
Silkscreening, also known as screen printing, is a popular method of printing designs onto various surfaces such as fabric, paper, metal, glass, and plastic. It involves using a mesh screen, typically made of silk or polyester, which is stretched tightly over a frame. A stencil or design is then placed on the screen, blocking the areas where ink should not pass through. Ink is applied onto the screen, and a squeegee is used to evenly distribute the ink across the surface, forcing it through the open areas of the stencil onto the desired material. This process allows for precise and detailed designs to be reproduced quickly and efficiently. Silkscreening is commonly used for creating artwork, custom clothing, signage, posters, labels, and other promotional items.
