hello everyone, i just wanted a breakdown of what i need to do when painting a t,shirt??

i haven't chosen a paint system yet so any advise on that front would be good

basically my girlfriend is getting an artcorner together for all the local summer street festivals and on top of the usual powder paints and glitter i at first wanted to build a fake brick wall and make an airbrush/graffiti corner useing some cheap single action plastic badger airbrushes and a load of stencils, but then relised that , just maybe, the local councils may not be too keen on me basicaly promoting crime to the younger generation laugh.gif

so now i'm thinkin of getting a load of white tee shirts and letting the kids spray through stencils to make their own tees huh.gif

just wondering if its viable? i know you need to heatset the paint.
would this be possable with a trouser press or would every one need to be ironed?

if its to much hassle i just have to come up with a good argument for the authorities in regards to the wall idea biggrin.gif

jurek is about the cheapest for its size however the larger bottles of autoborne may work out a better deal especialy for your white and black

if you going for single action maybe a better choice would be Paasche F models they are a lot sturdier than badgers version

my wife has made me throw out a small press ,its still available but im in birmingham and its too heavy to post realisticly ,if you want it you can have it ,its like small ironing board type ,i got it with good intentions but havent used it

Think they'd be alright with it if they allow a complete museum to one of the 'criminals'!?!?!?
