CCI Aqua-Block Water Resistant Block-Out - 1 Gallon
Water-resistant screen printing blockout formulated for filling open mesh areas, touching up screen defects, and protecting stencils during printing, providing durable resistance for water-based ink applications.
Characteristics
CCI Aqua-Block Water Resistant Block-Out is a screen printing blockout designed for filling open mesh areas, repairing pinholes, and touching up screen printing stencils before production. Its water-resistant formulation makes it especially useful when printing with water-based inks where conventional water-soluble blockouts may not provide sufficient resistance.
Aqua-Block can be applied to unwanted open areas of the screen to help prevent ink from passing through areas outside the intended image. It is also useful for correcting small stencil imperfections, covering registration marks, blocking screen edges, and making production-ready screen repairs.
Once properly applied and dried, Aqua-Block creates a durable barrier that helps withstand exposure to water-based printing environments. This allows screen printers to make quick corrections and prepare screens for production without having to completely remake a stencil because of minor defects or unwanted open areas.
The blockout can be applied where needed using common screen-room application methods, allowing operators to control coverage for both small touch-ups and larger open mesh areas. Proper drying before printing helps provide maximum resistance and durability during production.
CCI Aqua-Block Water Resistant Block-Out is a practical screen-room supply for textile and graphic screen printers looking for a dependable blockout for water-based ink applications, stencil touch-ups, pinhole repair, and general screen preparation.
