seriously thinking of try this soon

few questions
1. do you spread and scrape the emulsion using a metal ruler?
2. where to buy squeegee?
3. How good is the exposure results using the desk lamp technique?

will try to ask a friend to wire a frame with a light then maybe

oh yes one more thing
where do you buy fabric paint and what brand?
is d'arte fabric paint a good fabric paint? (actually it says that its fabric dye, but in comes in bottles and its of paint like consitency)
is it easy to get different tones of fabric paint? can i just mix two fabric paints to get another colour like in normal paints?

rubber paint only comes in buckets?
where to get rubber paint? how much does a bucket cost?
am actually thinking of starting a small home based t-shirt business, already have a few designs
decided that if i can print it myself then i wouldnt have to bother with dealing with printers
what paint do you recommend? would prefer something that lasts long is durable and doesnt produce any weird smells once the t-shirt make contact with sweat
(have had some experience with new custom t-shirts that smell funky when designs makes contact with sweat)

damn all their outlets are kind of out of reach for me
maybe i'll try my luck around pudu too see if i can find suppliers

hey guys, i went to venus art shop today
