Ulano Amberlith® Masking Films
Amberlith® is an amber masking film. Amberlith® is "safe" for use with indirect gelatin stencil films and diazo, diazo acrylic, or SBQ sensitized stencil films or emulsions. Amberlith® is not "safe" for use with camera speed darkroom films. Amberlith® is used primarily in the production of stencils for screen process printing. The amber film is easier to see through than the red, particularly when several sheets of film are overlaid to produce color separations.
 
   
 
Amberlith® Specifications:
Amberlith® are available in both high and low tack (quick stripping) formulations. High tack film is manufactured with an adhesive which produces a tight bond between the film membrane and the polyester backing sheet. High tack films are suitable for all types of cutting, but are particularly suited to the cutting of fine lines or details. Low tack films are produced with an a dhesive which allows the film membrane to be peeled easily. The "quick stripping" film is best suited for cutting masks or positives which are bold or large format.
 
The backing sheet, or support, provides dimensional stability to the film. Although masking film coated on 300- gauge polyester is predominant, 500- gauge polyester is recommended when the application requires tight registration or the mask or positive is large format. Amberlith® is available in 300- gauge only.
