Print - The Process of Prepping a Screen

If you want to use a film positive baked on your Mesh then, this is what you need to do but first of all because it is necessary - you NEED someone to help you:

 1. First of all after getting your mesh, make sure it is clean and dry then get a Scooper.

2. Then put some PhotoSensitive emulsion onto the scooper and spread the emulsion equally within the scooper. Make sure both corners are covered in it. Dont put to much or to little. When that is done, get your friend to hold the mesh by their feets.

3. Use both hands holding the scooper. Then start at the bottom, make the scooper touch the mesh. Make sure the scooper lean forward so the emulsion floods the part, its touching the mesh and when you're ready, steadly and firm, push the scooper upwards. When you reach the top, make the scooper lean back.

4. All the remaining emulsion can go back into the scooper and doesn't trip down the mesh(as that would destroy it) and when all the remaining emulsion is back on the scooper, slowly take the scooper off the mesh.

5. You now should have a fully covered, smooth mesh (If you have missed a part within the mesh, such as a sudden gap in the middle, do another coating).

 

6. Now put the mesh within a dark room, so no light can get to it.

 

7. Finally, clean up! Your mesh will be ready to use within 24 hours.
