A Lot of Bang for the Buck

I had previously only worked with Gelli plates. When looking for another brayer, I came across this kit with a 5x5" gel plate, a 4" brayer, and tubes of Speedball ink, all for a great price. I love the performance of the Speedball plate. It's flexible, but a little firmer than the Gelli plates, and am satisfied with the performance of the inks on the plate. It also cleans up nicely with a baby wipe or soap and water, and so far hasn't stained. Very happy with the product, and would look for…

Pros
  • Great ink for Intaglio - wonderful colors.
Cons
  • The gel printing surface is not durable and can quickly wear out

I love Speedball gel plates both for my own work and teaching. I deducted points because they were shipped without a box or any brand designation whatsoever. For this expensive and delicate an item, I expect better.

Pros
  • Item as expected.
Cons
  • The kit requires multiple steps, which can be time-consuming for busy individuals

The size is really good. Cant wait ti try and use it

Excited to receive the item. The size is really good. I had this sent to the Philippines and was kinda expecting to have some warping and dents but the speedball packaging is very sturdy and I got the item in perfect condition. Cant wait to try and use it.

Pros
  • 7 x 3.25 x 5.44 inches
Cons
  • The ink that comes with the kit is limited in color options, reducing the variety of prints that can be created
