drafting-film-08

Drafting film is a translucent one-side polyester-based film with  a matte drawing surface. It’s treated to reduce static and accept paint, ink and pencil. Dimensionally stable.

Traditionally used by draftsmen and architects to draw plans on, but the film has gained popularity amongst artists as it is generally more durable than paper. It is resistant to tearing but can show dents and creases if not handled correctly. When using mixed media the film will also not shrink or warp like organic paper.

Polyester drafting film have a frosted or translucent look and a smooth surface. Although these sheets are normally used for drafting plans, they can be used as a surface for oil and acrylic paints, watercolor, colored pencils, graphite, charcoal, chalk, and markers.

Both sides can be used to work on, creating an interesting effect.

When working with drafting film, take care not to touch the film too much, as your hands may leave marks that will be difficult to remove.
