Hello,
Does anyone have information on using silkscreen mesh to reinforce paper or other supports for acrylic paint? I ask because at least one art supply vendor offers Pe-Cap monofilament mesh as a material for lining artwork.
A couple of questions that occur to me:
Is a monofilament better or worse than a multi-filament mesh for this purpose?
What mesh density and materail is best?
Is the mesh fabric durable?
What adhesive should be used?
Will acrylic adhere to the mesh?
