AP Blue Screen Printing Emulsion (Quart - 32oz.) Pre-Sensitized Photo Emulsion for Silk Screens, Textiles, and Fabric - Plastisol Ink Supplies

Good product. I’m a professional printer and it works very well on my screens and exposes the images well. I was looking for a replacement of my usual product which is now £80 per tub. I’ve found this is produced extremely cost effective compared to other product on the market and works just as well, plus it’s ready mixed. .

We found that is emulsion is the best you can use along with plastisol inks. We put two layers on both sides of the mesh and have great results. Keep it in the dark until you are ready to print and you will have good results. Make sure you stir slowly and always bring up the layer on the bottom of the can to keep mix working well. Pop the bubbles with a stick and you will prevent air holes in the emulsion. It levels out nicely when placed in the dry box. We do ten screens at once and have great results. Dries fast and dries level. Warm water clean up is a breeze.

I cannot stress this enough - if you are new to screen printing, this emulsion will make you want to quit. It is next to impossible to determine exposure times, even with exposure charts. Eventually I switched to BaseLayr and my screens perfectly washed out with an exposure time of 3.5 seconds on the first hit. This emulsion is garbage.

Love this item

I don't know what I was thinking buying this stuff. At work we use Ulano products, and I bought this stuff for home because it's cheaper. You really do get what you pay for. About halfway through my quart and I've had about a 30% success rate on screen washouts. This stuff takes forever to dry, and even when it appears to be bone dry, it falls apart on the screen during washout. It is not water resistant so you can't soak before the rinse. My success with halftones is even smaller, this emulsion cannot produce a clean halftone in the 40+ lpi range. Really, the only thing I'd use this for is big, large graphics with no detail, like player names and numbers for jerseys. But then again, spend $15 more and get Ulano or Chromaline and don't worry about your emulsion breaking apart right in front of your eyes 70% of the time. This stuff is seriously poor quality. Should've known when buying a brand that has "eco" right in the name. This stuff will actually cost you money and time in it's amount of failures. I wish I could 0 star this review.

Quality was great and imagine burn time was easy to figure out. 18sec for me and the image was clear and durable. Great value for my money
