Coated Screens: Not sure how to coat your screen with emulsion or just don’t want to mess with it? No worries, just get your screen pre-coated with emulsion and shipped directly to your door. Our pre-coated screens ship in light safe bags, so you receive them ready to expose. Be sure to open and store your pre-coated screens in a light safe environment, to avoid premature exposure. All our pre-coated and exposed screens come coated with our Xenon QXL emulsion, which is perfect for printing with plastisol and waterbased inks. If your using this emulsion for the first time, we highly recommend getting 1 extra screen, to start with an exposure test. By request, we can also coat your screen with any other emulsion we carry, so if you’re printing with discharge, solvent, uv inks, just let us know which emulsion you prefer. Coated screens ship out in 1-2 business days and are nonreturnable.
