This post has been a long time coming. Some of you may remember that late last year, we made some OneTwenty shirts<\/a> so that we could all match at the Perth Massive<\/a>.<\/p>\n

I wrote about our initial failure<\/a> and then our eventual success<\/a> in screen printing our own shirts. A big part of our success was getting the right equipment. It was fairly easy to buy a silk screen and fabric paint, but the real key was finding somewhere in Perth that stocked photo emulsion<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Now for some quick pictures and details. We picked up most of our supplies from Jacksons Drawing Supplies<\/a> in Shafto Lane. Here’s a shot of the store front in case you go looking for it:<\/p>\n

There is a photo of their fabric printing supplies shelf in this previous post<\/a>. Their paint and screens were reasonably price, but they didn’t stock photo emulsion so we had to look elsewhere.<\/p>\n

After much driving around and talking to various print suppliers, we ended up at Sericol<\/a> at 209 Railway Road in Subiaco. They’re are more of a sell-to-business store than a sell-to-the-public store, so they only have a small display shelf and all items are kept out the back somewhere. Here’s a photo of the display shelf:<\/p>\n

I circled the photo emulsion in yellow. It’s good stuff; pre-sensitized so there is no need to mix in sensitizer before using it. The container also contains quite a lot; I don’t see us buying any more for a long, long time.<\/p>\n

Here’s a screenshot of the building so you know what to look for while driving down Railway Road:<\/p>\n

Note<\/strong>: This post probably looks like an advertisement, but we really could not find anywhere else to buy photo emulsion. There may be places online, but we didn’t have time to wait for an order to arrive!<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
