What Type of Screen is Used for Screen Printing?
The type of screen used for screen printing is typically made from a mesh material, such as nylon or polyester. The mesh count refers to the number of threads in a linear inch of the screen and affects the resolution of the image that can be printed. Higher mesh counts result in finer details and smoother edges, while lower mesh counts allow for thicker ink deposits and are typically used for printing larger areas of color.
