Description
Our Toray WF95CH2 clear hard plate can handle a deep bite into all thicknesses of uncoated letterpress papers with minimal compression. It has a transparent plastic-backing for mounting on a Standard Boxcar Base. You can cut these plates with scissors. If purchasing unexposed plastic-backed polymer plates, you’ll also want to purchase our Boxcar film adhesive to adhere your plates to your base.
- For use on the Standard Boxcar Base. Called Seafoam Plates.
- This is the plate we have tested and use at Boxcar Press (with our Heidelberg Cylinders, Vandercooks, and Windmills).
- At 70 Durometer (our hardest plastic plate), it’s good for fine lines down to .25 pt and dots 1 pt thick. The lines will hold up under deep impressions with this plate without distortion.
- When washed out, background is smoky clear with a pale blue cast and relief is very pale blue.
- Stouffer 21 Step Exposure Scale is 15-17.
- With a harder durometer, this plate may dry out, become brittle, and curl quicker than softer plastic backed plates (durometer of 64 and lower)
