We are now selling new, and re-stretching screens with Permanent Blockout... 8)

Save time and tape!!







2 part polyurethane glues are softer (Less popping), and more chemical resistant!! The inside of the frame has a bead of silicone to prevent ink from seeping into cracks.

Please call for pricing!!

How long does the silicone hold up, especially in dip tanks?
That rug really tied the room together, did it not?

Thanks!! Wish it was mine, but printers have been doing this since the old days... Just not many folks do it anymore. It is a very slow process, it "literally" takes twice as long as making a CA glued frame. We know, as a small company, we have to offer more than the big guys. So we are trying to offer a better product, at a reasonable price...

That is a good question... We have a local customer doing testing for us. So far it has done well. If it doesn't work out, the next option will be to use the same glue we use for the frames... Applying the silicone (because of the viscosity) is easier, but product quality is #1 in my book, so we will do whatever we have to do..

You don't need the Silicone. A good smooth coat of "glue" on the bottom side of the screen will work and last a long time. I have some screens I glued in production for over a year and hold up. You just don't pressure wash the glue area too hard.

Good idea

We weren't doing it yet... Was being tested (locally), but we try not to sell anything we are not sure of... I would be happy to give you a good deal on your next set... You guys have been a great customer of ours, and we appreciate it!!  ;)

That was what I was thinking, but the one competitor doing this (that I am aware of), is adding the silicone, so I don't want to do less than them... As time goes by we will re-evaluate, and go from there... ;)

I've been wanting to do this for years now it seems like but didn't want to get away from our newmans. I've been running some static s mesh screens the last couple days and if all goes well I would be super interested in s mesh screens done this way. The amount of time/money we spend taping screens is pretty sickening to me so to eliminate that all together would be HUGE for us. Spot, once you have s mesh pricing ready to go would you please PM me. I'd be looking at 200-300 screens minimum to start
