For: Screen Printers

Conform® Premasks with RLA®. Our proprietary RLA system allows the tape to lay flat around cut vinyl graphics. Prints stay clean… and don’t stick together from lifted corners… making them easier to apply in the field. In addition, our premiumweight paper tapes give you more body for applying large graphics — especially around compound curves and over rivets — resulting in better lay-down.

R Tape Specialty Premasks. Screen printers face particular
demands. Rough textures of four-color process prints, thermal
die cuts with burled edges, and slick UV inks and clears can
be difficult to stick to and hard to transfer. Expensive printed acrylic graphics panels and impressionable domed surfaces also require special care. Our solution is a full line of specially-formulated premium heavyweight tapes and clear film premasks that protect graphics during storage and handling
and make installations easier.

Claritex™. Clear textured polycarbonate films for everything
from displays and instrument touch screens to automobile
speedometers and graphic overlay panels. Print your graphics
and the diffuser coat behind it, and back-light for a brilliant,
eye-catching display.

ProGrade™ Paint Masks. Made from a polymeric vinyl, the
ProGrade Paint Mask works in bake cycles up to 200o F, in sign
shop or body shop applications, with a variety of paint systems.
Available in white or yellow, easy to cut and weed, ProGrade
Paint Masks remove cleanly from the painted surface without
leaving adhesive or other contaminants.

Blue Block Out & Split Liner Tape™. These solvent-resistant
polyethylene block out tapes, Blue Block Out for wood frames,
or Split Liner tape for metal and retentionable frames, keep
ink from getting between the frame and mesh. You spend less
time on clean up, because they peel off cleanly from the mesh
without leaving adhesive residue. By taping a frame with Split
Liner, you can retension a screen without having to remove and
reapply the block out tape.

Pallet Protek™. Eliminate time-consuming and costly clean
up of messy spray adhesives from pallets and the need to use
volatile solvent cleaners. Just cover your pallets with a few
layers of Pallet Protek and mark the base layer with an “x.”
Spray the paper tape instead of the pallet with adhesive. When
finished, simply remove and discard the top layer of tape. When
you get to the “x” layer, simply reapply a few additional sheets
of Pallet Protek.
