HANDLING

Handle under yellow safe lights. Avoid exposure to sunlight, flourescent and incandescent lights.

SENSITIZING

Mix the sensitizer according to the instructions on the bottle. Pour the entire solution into the emulsion and mix thoroughly. To reduce air bubbles let the emulsion stand for two hours (preferably overnight) before using.

MESH PREPARATION

It is important to remove any contamination, residual inks, cleaning chemistry, or general dirt and dust.
Completely dry the screen before coating.

COATING PROCEDURE

Use a clean dry coating trough that has a nick free surface for smooth coating. Apply one or two coats of emulsion to the print side. Rotate the frame 180 degrees and apply one or two coats of emulsion to the squeegee side. • Additional coats may be added to the print side if thicker stencils are required.

DRYING
Dry the coated screen horizontally with the print side down in a clean light safe area. The following will help to ensure complete drying:

• 86° to 104° degrees F (30° to 40° C)
• 30% to 50% relative humidity
• Good air circulation

The use of a screen drying cabinet with heated airflow can help in maintaining these conditions.

EXPOSURE

Clean the film positives and vacuum frameglass prior to exposure to minimize pinholes.
Exposure is affected by mesh color, emulsion type, coating thickness, lamp type and the age of the bulb itself.
For best results use an exposure calculator to determine the correct exposure time.
It is important that a lamp designed for exposing screen printing emulsions is utilized.

Note: The use of film positives that are either frosted or have weak black density can reduce resolution and definition qualities of the coated screen.
