Abstract
The present invention is embodied in a method for screen printing a target object, such as a substrate, which allows for the removal of a misaligned screen printed pattern without causing damage to the target object. A removable barrier layer is applied to the substrate and the pattern screen printed on the removable barrier layer. If the pattern is not properly aligned, the removable barrier layer with the screen printed pattern attached is removed from the substrate and the substrate can be reprinted. If the pattern is properly aligned, only the removable barrier layer is removed and the pattern drops onto and adheres to the substrate.
