How to Find Ink for Screen Printing

Helllo, this is Mark Kneeskern, on behalf of Expert Village. And in this clip, I'm going to show you how to buy colors for screen printing. In screen printing they use an ink that is indellable on fabric. And you can get ink online for a pretty reasonable price. If you don't have much money, or you can't spend much, you can just get black. And that's really the basic screen printing ink. You can do really bold designs with it and you don't need much else really. And if you want to, and you know you are going to do a lot of screen printing, you can buy it in bulk sizes. If you want to get into the colors, you just basically need the three basic colors; red, blue and yellow. And you can mix them into any color you want from that point. I also have brown, because I saw that and I liked it, so I picked that one up. But there are many other colors that you can choose from. But mixing them for yourself will save you money, and you won't have to have so many inks. And that's how you buy ink for screen printing.
