Screen Printing Overview - Murakami Screen

Gel Printing
The webbing on the Spiderman’s
suit is commonly printed with a gel.
This image would be printed with
sim process technique with clear
stretch ink base beneath the gel
print for image flexibility.
The gel print would be printed last
through a 250-400 micron thick film
on a 60 mesh screen onto the
stretchy base.
Without a “high-density” thick film
screen the gel ink print would be
very thin.
The goal is to get a raised gel print
on all his webbing.
Glow in the dark additives in the gel
and white highlight screen could
also create some great effects to
boost sales.
