This was a great deal and includes everything you would need to get started. I built a simple wooden one color press I saw on youtube and it helped speed up the printing process with some accuracy. The light bulb is a short term "3 hour" bulb but mine is still working after burning 8 screens. The emulsion you get in the kit will coat about 4 screens. We have printed up several shirts and tote bags for our business. This is a great package to test the waters and see if this is something you want to do. Our local Hobby stores carry this brand so I was able to pick up some extra screens and material. I have since bought a 4 color press and this weekend I am excited to pick up our 6 color press. I also found a local supply store that I have been purchasing commercial products from as I grow from this kit. This kit made it so easy for me to learn this process and realize I wanted to take this farther. The video provided does not completely explain the process but I did so much research on youtube that I was able to pick up the kit and start immediately. This is great if you are testing the waters or if you have a project. The inks provided are water-based and air dry well except the white. I found that you need to hit the white ink with the hot setting on a hair dryer for a few minutes or it will crack after the first wash. Everything that came with this kit will continue to be used as I grow my system. I will probably only use these smaller screens for tote bags or small print jobs since I now own several 20x24 commercial aluminum screens. I can't say enough good things about this as a starter kit. I really gave me the confidence I needed to spend $2,500 on professional equipment! Read more

Thanks fast delivery. Excited to get started Read more

A couple of items were broken and blank ink spilled ruining the transparent paper Read more

Very disappointed. Was awaiting for this excitedly but when I saw the tear on the box (where the tape was) I knew the worse has came. Just like how other reviewers had feedback that their products were opened and used, the one I received was badly used. The Dixo was EMPTY. Out of the 4 inks in the box, THREE were opened and used terribly. The black one was half gone. The red one has ink spilling everywhere I don’t even want to touch it further to prove it. I was really excited to buy this 😭 but this is not what I expected and paid for. Read more

My wife heat presses iron on shirts in her small business, so I wanted to give something a try to make a little more high quality stuff. This was pretty cool kit with all you need to make your first prints. MAKE SURE you watch some videos, I sat mine in the sun to dry and immediately regretted it when the emulsion baked on so hard that I couldn't get it off. It wound up using almost all the emulsion remover and had to pressure wash the screen for close to half an hour. Overall it's a great kit, with a couple under my belt I have ordered some different types of plastisol paint to try out. Read more

There is a slight learning curve to emulsification however, this kit has been the best value dollar wise for large scale silk screen printing as it is the longest lasting result I have tried to date. I have used the drawing paint method using Speedball products and found the edges of images to be a bit fuzzy and hard to control the screen filler thickness. I have use the vinyl sticker method which I have found to bleed and lose adhesion with high volume use and rarely does it survive high volume use. This took some time to emulsify correctly but the ability to reclaim screens makes this a process that can be redone until perfect or for multiple designs. Once the emulsification process is understood, the rest falls into place. Used this to make at least 8 screens for an entire grade to silkscreen multiple items in multiple colors and it lasted all the way through. Great bundle! Read more
