How to make Goose Hunting Decoys by Screen Printing w/ Hair Conditioner and Spraypaint

Step 10 The Hair Conditioner Image

After washing out the screen, let it dry.Now were ready to print...almost. It helps to hinge the screen frame to a table or board for loading and removing the substrate under it. Load the substrate and glop some conditioner on the screen and squeegee It across the screen. The sides of the frame act as a reservoir to keep the conditioner on the screen. The flat side of the screen goes towards the substrate. There should be approx. an 1/8" gap between screen and substrate. It will take some adjustment to figure the best distance ,but as you pass the squeegee over the screen you push downward and it should just touch the substrate. As you pass over the screen it should lift off. This makes a clean "Hair conditioner Image"
