Thanks for your words of encouragement. I am already hitting a wall with the emulsion/burning process, I picked up some emulsion off Amazon, this one: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B075SG83BH/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o00__o00_s01?ie=UTF8&psc=1 ,
thinking it would be the same as working with the speedball diazo stuff. Being a Photopolymer I thought it would burn designs way faster. I've been drying my screens in a dark closet with a fan running on low from 3 hours to 12+.
Every time I burn the screen the design comes right off. Now I'm thinking it's my light source, don't really have any extra cash to pick up a fancy lighting rig so Im using a simple clamp light with a lightbulb. An LED one, a simple house bulb...
Have been trying different burn times but nothing seems to work. Any tips?
