Lascaux Resists
These reliable new acrylic resists have been carefully designed to provide all the marks associated with traditional materials as well as relating closely to classical working methods. The water-soluble resists are easily applied with artists’ brushes and tools and can be cleaned up with soapy water. They can be used on copper, brass, zinc, aluminium and mild steel. The prepared etching plates may be new or previously bitten. Lascaux resists can be used in combination with each other and are compatible with some photopolymer resists. They dry quickly and become powerful acid resists with the ability to sustain long etches in a range of mordants. After etching they can be easily and economically removed from the plate with Lascaux Remover. The etched plates may be worked further or printed with water-based inks or oil-based inks. Some of the resists can also be used for intaglio collagraph methods.

Lift Solution 500ml
Lascaux Lift Solution is used in conjunction with Lascaux Aquatint resist or Lascaux Tusche wash/spray. The method is similar to ‘sugar-lift’ in traditional etching, and the marks made with Lascaux Lift Solution resemble classic sugar-lift marks. When the Lascaux Lift Solution is used to make an autographic positive, the painted marks will be non-printing and the sprayed Tusche background will print.
