FAQs

Can these screens be re-meshed?

Yes, the aluminum frames are designed to be durable enough to handle re-meshing once the original screen has reached the end of its lifespan.

What is the best way to store these frames?

Store them in a vertical, upright position in a dry environment to avoid deformation of the mesh or scratching the aluminum frames.

Are these frames compatible with water-based inks?

Yes, the nylon mesh is compatible with both water-based and plastisol inks when properly cared for.

Do I need to sand the aluminum frame before taping?

Generally no, but ensuring the frame is clean and free of dust or oils will help the tape adhere more securely.

Can I use these for photographic emulsion?

Yes, the 160 mesh count is very well-suited for holding fine detail when using photographic emulsion methods.

Troubleshooting

Ink bleeding under the edge of the stencil

Ensure the frame is taped properly using the provided silver tape to seal the gap between the screen and the frame edge.

Inconsistent ink transfer

Check that the squeegee pressure is uniform across the entire surface and verify that the screen is held at the correct off-contact distance from the substrate.

Mesh appearing clogged

Use a dedicated screen-cleaning solvent and a soft-bristled brush to gently remove dried ink deposits from the mesh holes.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Sturdy aluminum frame prevents warping over time
  • High-tension 160 mesh count ensures precise printing results
  • Includes essential silver tape for quick setup and ink management
  • Versatile design allows for use on multiple material types

Cons

  • Requires manual mesh cleaning after each use
  • Aluminum frames may dent if dropped on hard surfaces
  • No pre-installed registration marks on the frame

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setting up your screen is straightforward. First, secure your design using your preferred screen-printing emulsion or masking method. Once the design is set, use the provided silver tape to seal the edges where the screen meets the frame, ensuring no ink escapes during the squeegee process. For care, avoid using harsh chemicals that can degrade the nylon mesh. Clean the screens with a soft brush and water or an appropriate ink-removal solvent immediately after use. Always store the frames in a cool, dry place and stack them vertically to prevent pressure from damaging the screen surface. These frames are compatible with most standard manual screen printing presses that accommodate a 20 x 24-inch profile.
