    Hi all
    Was wondering is it possible to use acrylic paints to screen print a small run of signs onto Corriboard? If not, what would I use, I dont want to get into serious solvent stuff, wife reckons i create enough smells around the place 😀
    I have the equipment lying around and would like to use it.

    hi harry 😀

    if the boards are for short term use, try out the inks you have, but i doubt you’ll get one to key to the corriboard 😀 but try anyway…as you know the funniest things can happen in screenprinting 😉

    i dont know what ink suppliers you use…..we use corriplast im sure most of the correct inks all start with ‘corri something’ give your nearest supplier a phone… i would have sent you some but it probably wouldnt get to you until christmas 😀

    Thanks Nic, I will start a new thread appealing to the Irish users for an Irish supplier. Just back from a great wedding in Drumfries, oh the whisky!!!!!!
