Lithography is a resist process, based on the fact that oil and water don’t mix. During this member’s only course, we will be applying the same principles traditional stone lithography, but with an easier method of creating the litho plate.
The surface of the modern polyester plate is made to hold water, so these polyester lithography plates, often referred to as D2P (Direct to Plate), ‘Smart Plates’ or ‘Pronto Plates’ are designed for direct-drawing or laser-printing.
