I thought I had screenprinted on just about everything until now . . . I have the chance to do a two color surfboard logo on rice paper.

I was hoping for a pointer or two.

Thanks In Advance,

Bruce [Cool]

I used an inkjet printer to print out small logos for a local manufacturer. I fed the rice paper into the printer one sheet at a time. Not really good for the printer as the rice paper contains a lot of debris.

Did a job like this some years ago for a guy making surf boards. We printed laquer based vinyl inks (Nazdar same as used for vinyl stickers) through a 100T screen (that would be about 240 thread per inch) onto lunch wrap paper (kids use it for tracing and wraping sandwiches in).
It worked like a treat, when the paper was embeded in clear resin it just disapeared and all that could be seen was the print. You definitely need to print on a vacume table and use a small amount of offset(1mm) between the screen and the paper.
