We offer two woven etching blankets made of 100% wool, a 2mm sizing catcher and a 3 mm pusher blanket. These two blankets combined are perfect for printing etchings, aquatints, photogravure and photopolymer intaglio. The sizing catcher blankets should be machine washed in HOT water on regular agitation and dried in the dryer on HIGH heat to break in the blanket prior to printing. Wash and dry a couple of times. Using hot water and air will not shrink a woven blanket significantly and will tighten and soften the weave for the smoothest printing. One sizing catcher is usually paired with one other thicker woven blanket against the roller for printing gravures. It is good to have a second sizing catcher on hand to use when the first one gets saturated. 56" wide, sold by the linear foot. Please adjust quantity per foot required and add a 1/2 foot if needed. 1 foot minimum required per order. Price includes shipping in the US. International shipping is not included in the price and you will be contacted with info on how to pay shipping. Blankets are cut to order, ALL SALES ARE FINAL.
