Found this really neat product allowing you to make a screen stencil from you inkjet.
http://gwengibson.com/photoez.htm.

1) Does anyone know of a similar but less expensive product?
2) Where do I find plain white or silver blank CDs?
Everything I found has a brand name printed on top, I imagine it could show through the ink, or not?
3) Can anyone recommend an ink that "sticks" on plastic?

Thanks

Stephan

This would only be practical if you intend to make a large number of disks.

You can get "Printable" white or silver CDR many places. For bulk (100Pcs or more) I use; http://www.Rima.com

Printable disks do not have any markings on them.

Inkjet ink is all you need for printable disks, BTW there are a couple of printers that will print directly on disks. I believe Epson makes one of them.
Thanks

Look for disks labels NSP (No Screen Print). Not common but they are around. Also inkjet printable media is blank but mroe expensive.

just get yourself a Canon i865 printer and buy inkjet printable media.
