Block out for water based inks?

[jesusvbarraza]

I was wondering what people use for block out, I just use emulsion but sometimes it sticks once I have been printing for a bit. Is there some blockout people recommend using with tw inks or speedball?

I use saatichem W1 finish, it works for all inks, but it is my WB one, is latex based, washes out easy during reclaim.

I've never had it leak. I've had leaks with emulsion.

bought a gallon nearly 10 years ago, haven't used half, and I smuggled a jar to Decoder a few years back. Stuff goes forever, just add a bit of water occasionally.

thanks, gonna order some of that stuff. do you use saatichem emulsions or just the the block out?

[Andymac]

just blockout, I've never tried their other stuff. I'm sure it's good.

I use the saatichem but have switched to Norecote SF Red Block-out
