Kimoto Silkjet is a high-quality polyester 4 mil film designed for InkJet printers using Photographic Dye-Based ink. Screenprinters use Clear Kimoto InkJet Film as a positive for burning screens. This is an inexpensive alternative to using a camera. Not compatible with Ultra-Chrome Inks.  Silkjet media are inkjet printable film positives used to burn screens the same way as our Kimodesk products are utilized. We recommend piezo-type inkjet printers for Silkjet products such as Epson.

Key Benefits include:
    Polyester base imparts dimensional stability.
    Single-side printable with anti-static properties.
    UC5 type can be imaged with both pigment and dye-based ink jet inks.
