5 Craft Tools For Screen Printing DIY Shirts with Ikonart Stencils

In this video, I’m sharing my top five must-have accessories for screen printing t-shirts using the Ikonart Custom Stencil Kit. I’ll walk you through why I prefer the purple textile film for its sturdiness and reusability, how a tacky mat helps prevent ink bleed-through, and why Speedball fabric ink is my go-to for long-lasting, washable prints. I’ll also highlight the benefits of using a silicone squeegee for smooth ink application and a heat press to set the design. Beyond printing, I’ll dive into my favorite tools for making Ikonart stencils, including the Canon Pixma iX6820 printer with Arthur Imaging inks, the Beastron remote and Oveki timer for exposure, and the high-pressure trigger jet nozzle for washout. If you’re looking to improve your screen printing workflow with Ikonart, this video is packed with practical tips—and be sure to check out the blog post linked below for four easy ways to heat set your ink.
