Traffic Signal Reflection Film Screen Printer

A traffic signal reflection film screen printer uses microscopic glass beads in a transparent adhesive to produce signs that reflect light from headlights and other sources. These prints can be produced with digital or traditional screen-printing methods and are often used on non-critical street and road signage.

To achieve crisp, clean lines and a consistent ink layer, mastering the process of printing on reflective sheeting requires careful preparation and application of specific printing techniques. This article will also cover the proper use of inks (including plastisol and water-based), as well as the importance of choosing and preparing a properly coated mesh screen for this type of printing. Also covered will be the proper drying time for the ink to prevent smudging.
