I always wanted to do print screening, and this product really helped me to get started. Just follow the instructions and you can make magical things appear on your shirts haha... Great product! Only used up, I would say, about 20% of this starter (Mind you, STARTER) kit, and i've made about 8 shirts already. Pretty cool!

This came with just about everything you need to start a Hobby Silk Screen workshop.I was planning on just doing Emulsion prints but it comes with Instuctions on Stencil, and drawing fluid and of course Emulsion. For $25 I'm not complaining. It would be nice if it came with Tranfer paper but that's easy enough to find. If you want to make bigger runs I suggest you buy more supplies like, Lights for Emulsion, Multiple Screens, Lots of Ink, A Nicer Squeegie, And an actual press for convenience.. which I'm planning on buying in the future but this is a very good deal for now... Especially considering how much you save.

So I purchased this a few months ago, haven't used it much because the ink that it comes with is not right. First the description says Black, Blue and Red ink. Well there was no black ink, only a shiny silver... not much I'm going to do with that. The blue is fine, but the red is too orange in color. So just know that when you get this product from Amazon.

The item's description says that it comes with black, red, and yellow ink. When it arrived, it included silver, red, and blue ink. Everything else in the description seems to be correct. For the overall value of everything that comes with this kit, it is a great deal. It's just annoying that now I have to go out and buy yellow ink.

This was perfect for Christmas. Very pleased with a simple kit like this as a starter. It comes with everything you need to get started.

When I open the box the emulsion remover had been punctured and spilled all over everthing. Also there was blue paint that had leaked. I tried the product anyway because I was so excited about making a print. I mixed the emulsion and put it under a light for 45 minutes. After that, I discovered that there was a problem with the emulsion. I couldn't get it to wash off or stay on in the right places. I ended up sending it back. Amazon refunded my money. Speedball needs to do better packaging. In hindsight, I figure the screen had emulsion remover on it from the shipping spill. I would rate this product a D.

I purchased this and the first one I got when I opened the box it had blue paint spilled everywhere and dried on. I checked the bottles and nothing was open or punctured so I was dumbfounded. I contacted Amazon and they quickly processed through the issue and sent me another one for free that I received the next business day. I opened the second one with the hopes that there would be no issues but alas the same problem, there was dried paint stuck to the instructions packet and screen. I called Amazon and they removed the item from their website (them fulfilling it) and allowed me to process the return for both screen printing kits. I sent both back and received my refund within the time allotted. This did not seem to be an issue with Amazon but with Speedball. I hope the error has been corrected because I'd really like to try out this product but don't want to keep having issues.
