Is it possible to add too much diazo ? Some emulsion was already spilled upon delivery and I used a little bit of it before I realized I needed to use the diazo

[victortorres]

Is it safe to mix in the light due to exposure? Or should I do it in a dark room?

I'm using QT DISCHARGE U92, DIAZO C68D

While using on screen, mesh is closed by color paste or some time by fixer, when i apply Butyl on it to clean the mesh openings it removes the emuslion from screen or sometime makes edges

Kindly can you guide me which chemical should i use for screen opening.


Uras sd 88 is good or not hpw to use it?

[adriantrejo]

I just stirred with a metal spatula! Is this bad? I remembered after that I should use a wooden one! Is it gone bad?

Im trying out Kiwo Polycol one coat emulsion. Can it be used without adding Diazo? None of the transparencies are burning images into the screen.

[AudgePaudge]

My diazo had instructions to add water to the yellow activator. I forgot to add the water and mixed it right in. I see you didnt add water, was yours a specific mix that didnt need water? Or does it matter if I mix water in the activator powder?

Sir how can we use Azofix 2200N for screen printing

[pbtubelog]

I have a 8FL OZ bottle of emulsion that was kept in a dark room for about a year together with its sensitizer. I've mixed the sensitizer accordint to instructions(1/2 bottle water) and then mixed all together with photo emulsion.

As I was about to coat the screens I've noticed the color of the photo emulsion its not green, but rather a blue-green(aqua). My question is if the color green its an indication that the product its in proper conditions to be used OR I need to get new kit? Thank you*

If your powder requires water will it take longer or less time for the bubbles to stop?
