"He who marches out of step hears another drum." ~ Ken Kesey
Had a job today that was 158 shirts, 1 color - white print. I figured this was large enough to try burning 2 screens so we can complete in one rotation. Are there any tricks to this? I found it much harder to line up the second white screen as appose to setting up a 2 color butt reg job. I never seemed to be able to get it lined up just right. Even when the screen looked dead on, the print seemed to have sort of a shadow to it. We got it to a passable point and ran with it, but I really don't like the way they came out. We have a job tomorrow thats 185 pieces, white print front and back and I'm just going to end up running it around twice to avoid any issues. Any advice is appreciated. Thanks!
What's always helped me is printing the underbase, flashing and then marking the underbase with permanent marker on all sides of the print before printing your second white. That way when your second plate is out just a hair, you can tell which way to adjust your micros based on where the marker is still showing.
