You are a peach Paul thank you!! Your tutorials are always logical, methodical, and well researched. Appreciate this one today- losing details in my halftones and you've given a clear trouble shooting methodology.
My exposure times will be completely different to yours unless you have the same exposure setup I do so please bear that in mind. For my 200W UV LED setup my exposure times are 30 seconds
Dang I have the basic Ryonet exposure unit with a 20wat uv light. I use a ulano blue photo polymer emulsion. I’m trying to find the best time for half tones
ye those basic setups wont work for halftone, its exactly why i upgraded mine to a proper setup with a vacuum table, take a look at my UV LED build video on my channel. Its pretty cheap and easy to build a VERY powerful exposure light source. For halftones you really want a high output source, dense black positives and tight contact with the stencil and screen. Also for halftones you want at least 200+ thread count on your screen

happy to help Deborah!
Just what I was looking for. Thanks!
Glad I could help!
Most Excellent tip. I just blew out 3 screens because of the fine specs were over exposed and than under exposed ugh
I will try this on my next go. Thank you I couldn’t find an answer to this anywhere else
Thank you, the detailed areas in my image isn't holding when I wash the emulsion ill try this
Will the exposure times increase as due to the double coat?example 1/1 30 seconds but double coat increase exposure time?
Ye it would increase exposure time, you'd have to test it though to see by how much
@@ThisDesignedThat thanks, will try this method
Try to use a rip software, also try to use a constant ligth on your revealing machine , love peace and silk screen 🔥
mine keeps getting washout
What are an exposure times?
