Aquatint Screen Danish

*NEW AQUATINT SCREENS – Much darker and intense than previous screens*

80% density 60 my (res. 2400 / 175 lines)

Minimum density in the bright areas 0,04
Maximum density of the black in the opaque areas 3,9-4

These Aquatint screens, also known as Stochastic screens, are printed on a high-resolution imagesetter film (produced especially for the use of continuous tone positives with photopolymer films and/or Toyobo Photopolymer Plates KM73).  The screens produce deep blacks and delicate greys in the final print.
