Professional Color Matching

SCULPTURE Plastisol Colormatch

FX SCULPTURE BASE is specially formulated for high density printing with a hard texture feel. Printed images can have either a smooth or textured surface depending on mesh counts and printing parameters. Sculpture Base controls the smallest design details–even with high-density printing. Ink description and printing tips below.

Best for use with Saati PHW High Density Emulsion, coated 2 & 4 for approximately 200 microns or 2 & 8 for approximately 400 microns stencil thickness. Or check out of Photo Screen HIGH DENSITY screens for print ready screens with your image.

We use a pigmented Color Booster Mixing system consisting of curable concentrates designed to create Pantone color matches. This allows us to create thousands of Pantone-certified color formulations available on the IMS 3.0 software. This system is a very flexible solution used to create many color possibilities with extremely deep, intense colors. Colors are easy to print producing highly accurate and consistent hues.

All PMS sizes are mixed by weight. Some containers will be more filled than others. This is normal; content weights will be consistent.

Highlights:

• Smooth or textured hard surface and excellent edge definition
• Excellent performance with providing structure and shape for HD prints
• Tintable for infinite color combinations
• Excellent adhesion to fabrics, stretch properties, and wash durability
• Use by itself or intermix with other Infinite FX Bases for unlimited design effects
• Suitable for high-density or conventional flat screens

Printing Tips:

• Use consistent, high-tensioned screen mesh and sharp edged squeegees for best print results. Recommended mesh counts can vary depending on particle size
• For best HD results, use open mesh counts with 200 – 400 micron capillary film and print-flashprint. Use a heavy flood to fully fill the open areas of the stencil with ink then print with medium squeegee pressure
• Best when printed over a flash-dried underbase but suitable to be printed direct
• Adjust off-contact to imprint mesh patterns into Sculpture Base for textured feel and unique design effect
• Tintable with plastisol colorants. See Pigment Loading section for suggested starting tinting percentages. Reduce the amount of white colorant in the formula as specialty base will lighten the color
• Sculpture Base is commendable in keeping shape and providing structure for HD print designs. Use Sculpture Base by itself or combine with other Infinite FX bases for a unique effect
