Flatstock Spotlight: Coventry Rag
We love a great paper. One of our favorite white paper suggestions for screen printing artwork is Coventry Rag from Legion Paper.
Composition: 100% Cotton. The cotton really drinks in ink, which we feel pairs beautifully with illustrated artwork.
Archival Qualities: Neutral pH, Acid-Free
Key Features
Dimensional Stability: Engineered to handle heavy ink loads (50-75+ colors!) without registration issues.
Surface Textures: Available in Vellum (textured) and Smooth.
Recommended Applications:
We primarily use it for screen printing. However, it also pairs well with letterpress and embossing techniques.
