English term or phrase: oil screen painting
This is a caption without illustration I'm translating for a catalogue, so I don't have any context, unfortunately.

Stainless steel surface, ***oil screen painting***, integrated materials

Can anybody tell me what "oil screen painting" is? Does it have to do with silk screen printing?
Thanks a lot!

screen printing using oil paints


Explanation:
Silk screen printing usually uses a ink based product, oil screen printing is mainly used for signs and outdoor ad material. Like when screen printing on stainless steel. there would be an etch primer applied first for instance, which helps the oil paint stick to the material and not peel off.

Screen printing has over 200 different oil and ink products for different applications.

A screen used for ink (silk) screen printing has finer mesh holes than an oil screen.
