Abstract: A method is provided of placing pigmented material onto a screen mesh sheet made up of screen wires having forward surfaces and defining mesh openings between the screen mesh wires and having a screen mesh sheet forward face and a screen mesh sheet rearward face, using a foam sheet formed of yieldable material and having a foam sheet forward face and a foam sheet rearward face, and using a substantially planar support surface, comprising the steps of: placing the foam sheet rearward face against the substantially planar support surface; placing the screen mesh sheet rearward face against the foam sheet forward face; applying force against at least a region of the screen mesh sheet to receive the pigmented material, in the direction of the support surface, thereby pressing the region of the screen mesh sheet into the foam sheet forward face such that foam sheet material bulges into mesh openings in the screen mesh sheet; and spraying the pigmented material onto forward surfaces of the screen wires.
