Screen Printing

screen (often call a silk screen) of the correct mesh count is cleaned and thoroughly degreased

The mesh is coated with a photo sensitive emulsion and dried

A positive film is made and the screen is exposed under ultra violet light

After exposure the screen is washed in water and the soft unexposed coating is washed away leaving the shape of the image to be printed in the open mesh.

 

In the left picture it is the screen being printed and the right picture is the resulting ribbon of this process
