The printing quality of silk screen printing is determined by several key factors, including:
1. Screen mesh count and tension: The higher the mesh count and tension of the screen, the finer the details that can be reproduced in the print.
2. Ink viscosity: The ink should have the right viscosity to flow smoothly through the screen and produce sharp, crisp prints.
3. Ink color and opacity: The color and opacity of the ink can affect the brightness and vibrancy of the print.
4. Printing pressure: The pressure applied during printing can affect the thickness and uniformity of the ink layer on the substrate.
5. Substrate type and preparation: The type of substrate and how it is prepared can affect how well the ink adheres to the surface and the overall print quality.
6. Drying/curing process: The drying/curing process can affect the durability and longevity of the print, as well as its final appearance.
