    You might want to get in touch with Riso Screens (they have a web
    site), as they make the screens  and frames for the screens used for
    silk screening. I use them for silk screening on enameled copper.
    They have full instructions for their use.   Instead of doing your
    screening on paper, you would be doing it on  enameled copper.  And,
    instead of using the inks ma de for paper you would use   very finely
    ground enamels made for screening. There are two types---oil based
    and water based.  I prefer the water base dones. For more specific
    directions check out  the  Glass on Metal web site.  They probably
    have an article on silk screening that you can download.  You 
    might also  find something on the Dutch Enameler's website.  Alma
