From the manufacturer
THE BASICS
•We recommend using acrylic paints. It is not necessary to clean the plate between prints, unless desired. Paint residue can contribute to surprising and pleasing results.
• There is no need to clean your plate between prints, but it is recommended to clean your plate before storage and remove all paint residue at that time.
• We do not recommend using dyes when printing on the plate (such as rubber stamp inks, spray inks and fabric dyes) as the gel will absorb some of the dye and become permanently stained. However, stains will not affect printing performance.
• Many paints and inks are compatible with Gelli printing. These include water-soluble printmaking inks and fabric paints.
ESSENTIAL TO KNOW
• The gel printing plate has an extremely sensitive surface and will imprint any texture it is sitting upon.
• Do not cover your gel printing plate with plastic wrap or waxed paper. These wraps will wrinkle and imprint their texture on your gel printing plate.
• The gel printing plate is made of a unique plastic that contains mineral oil. The gel plate will leach a small amount of harmless mineral oil when left sitting on an absorbent surface.
• We recommend you protect your work surface by placing your gel printing plate on a smooth, flat, non-porous barrier such as a Teflon® sheet, baking tray or piece of glass.
• Do not place your gel printing plate directly on a surface that may absorb the harmless mineral oil, like a wooden table.
• The gel printing plate may exude a small amount of harmless mineral oil when exposed to warm environments.
Gelli Arts Mini Printing Plate Kit contains reuseable Gel Plate, Storage Container and Texture Tool
Gelli Arts recommends using acrylic paints. It is not necessary to clean the plate between prints, unless desired. Paint residue can contribute to surprising and pleasing results.
You can also use water-soluble printmaking inks, such as Speedball Block Printing Inks, Daniel Smith Water-Soluble Inks, and Akua inks. Recommended fabric paints include Jacquard’s Lumiere Metallics, Neopaque Opaques and Textile Colors, Versatex Printing Ink, and Speedball Fabric Opaque Screen Printing Ink
Anything from computer paper to card stock to printmaking paper can be used to print on. You can also use tight-weave fabrics, such as PFD cotton and muslin
Gelli Arts printing plates are easy to clean and care for, and should be stored at room temperature
