The Akua Carborundum Gel combines the worlds of screen printing and collagraph to form an entirely new creative process. Carborundum printmaking is a collagraph process in which an image is created directly on the plate by applying an abrasive grit (Carborundum) mixed with an acrylic medium or glue. Once dried, it forms areas of texture or line which is then inked intaglio, relief or both. This ready to use platemaking gel offers a reliable medium that delivers fine, sharp detail and a uniquely textured surface that yields rich, velvety areas of color.
