The Purple Zone-Coated Tape provides a fast, clean release when printing is completed without leaving adhesive residue. The small 1/4"-3/8" adhesive band, that attaches continuously along the top of the roller and the mesh, blocks ink seepage during printing. This band provides a minimum of adhesive contact for both quick release and some stretching ability allowing the mesh to make print contact unrestrained. Regular tapes restrain the mesh during printing, hence, reducing the free-mesh area to the inside dimension of the Newman Roller Frame®. The Zone Tape allows the free-mesh area to extend to the full outside dimension of the Newman Roller Frame®. This increases the usable print area. The Purple Zone-Coated Tape™ is a softer, more elastic inert polyethylene substrate with a medium aggressive adhesive. Application is the same as the Flex Tape.
