Description
Japanese Vinyl 3mm Double Sided Relief Printing Block
Japanese double sided vinyl is an excellent alternative to traditional lino, offering a smooth yet durable surface that takes fine detail with ease. Its 3mm thickness provides ample material for carving without sacrificing flexibility, and both sides can be used for printing. The black core between the green and blue vinyl layers helps you easily see where you have carved, ensuring accurate designs and efficient use of the material.
Double Sided and Economical
Because both sides of this vinyl block can be carved, you effectively get two surfaces in one piece. This feature not only saves money, but it also streamlines your workflow by allowing you to explore multiple designs or testing variations on the same block. The black core makes the carving areas highly visible, helping you maintain precision.
Crisp, Detailed Cuts
Japanese vinyl is known for its smooth cutting properties. Whether you are carving intricate line work, deep negative space, or subtle textures, the material yields clean, sharp edges. It also stands up well to repeated inking and printing without degrading, making it suitable for both small runs and extensive printing projects.
Durable and Compatible with Various Inks
Unlike some linoleum alternatives that can break down or flake over time, this vinyl’s surface remains consistent through repeated uses. It is suitable for both oil and water-based inks, giving you the freedom to experiment with different media and printing methods. Its rigidity also supports even pressure distribution, ensuring uniform ink transfer across your entire design.
