Polychromatic screen printing

Updated: Nov 7, 2018

This process involves painting procion dyes directly onto a printing screen. It takes a little practice as the paint bleeds out a little and is always better to paint with light colours first. You should dry the screen with a hair dryer if you want the colours to be more crisp in between colour changes.


Procion dyes and water at there strongest strength

5g to 10ml of water

Procion print paste.


1. Paint onto the side of the screen that touches the fabric.

2. Dry

3. Turn screen over to touch fabric.

4. Add Print paste to the screen and drag through mesh

The pattern will transfer ono the fabric you can also print onto paper in this way to.

6. Dry and Steam

7. Wash.
