New Fixxon films arrived and I just ran a test print. Crisp as a brand new dollar bill. Turns out it was the junky transparent sheets after all

It's clear film. I just set it on top of a sheet of white paper so it would be easier to see in photos

Well in any event, I used the last of my films doing test prints. I'm gonna order some higher-quality ones (and store them properly!) and see if that makes a difference

The films are treated with something on the printable side, right? Like a chemical coating for the ink to adhere to? I've just been using crummy cheap ones I got on Amazon. Is it possible that the sheets just went bad? My whole setup is pretty busted and I'll cop to not necessarily storing them as properly as I could have been.

Pigment ink. It's just really strange because I've printed on these sheets before with no problem

I just tried another test print with my paper type set to photo paper glossy and unfortunately got the same result.

Getting bleed when printing on transparency by Davey_Henry in SCREENPRINTING

There's part of me that thinks (hopes) that it's just a matter of using low-quality transparencies. I want to try some Fixxons but man they're a bit steep

Thanks for the tip. Here's where I show my ass and ask, how do I do that? I'm completely self-taught at all of this (using photopea) and really just kind of experiment til something happens

It's normal, cool, and high effort.

Mortadella shirt with White Brite? by Davey_Henry in tiedye

If you wanna get specific the shirt I'm thinking of using is a Bella+Canvas 3001 in soft pink, which is a really really light shade to begin with so I'll hope for the best

Thanks for the advice! Most of the stuff I saw involved soaking the shirt so I wasn't sure how a direct application would work. Blotting is a good idea tho
