The Daler Rowney System3 Removable Screen Block is designed for professional artists and students who require a reliable, reusable stenciling solution for screen printing. This medium allows you to create precise, handmade stencils that are durable enough for multiple impressions, offering a versatile workflow for acrylic-based projects. A key benefit is its water-soluble formula that simplifies the cleanup process; however, users must ensure the drawing fluid is completely dry before application to prevent unwanted ink bleed.

Yes, because it is solvent-free and water-soluble, it is a popular choice for school and studio settings.
Ensure you are using cold water for the initial washout; hot water may cause the block to become too soft.
Check that the Screen Block was applied in a completely uniform layer; gaps in coverage allow ink to seep through.
Use warmer water and a soft nylon brush with soap to help break down the emulsion if it has been left on the screen too long.
To prepare the screen, ensure the mesh is clean and free of oils before beginning. The Removable Screen Block is specifically formulated to work with System3 drawing fluid; avoid using mismatched brands to ensure proper washout. To maintain your screens, always reclaim the mesh immediately after you finish your print run. Use hot water and a mild soap solution, gently scrubbing the mesh to remove all traces of the block. Store the screen in a cool, dry place to prevent mesh distortion. Always ensure the bottle cap is tightly closed after use to prevent the product from thickening.
