Ecotex® Emulsion Hardener

good

This shop is always great with customer service and quality products! Love love love how easy it is to shop with them and get the results I need!

Emulsion Hardner: My experience with it is with Diazo water based emulsions. Once a screen has been exposed & image washed out and screen dried, I simply spray some of the hardener on the emulsion of both sides of an exposed screen, wipe it around with a rag, and let it dry again. The emulsion hardener “doesn’t clog” the open areas of the image on the screen. It has made a big improvement to my imaged screens’ durability and no more soft sticky emulsion when it gets wet when rinsing off the ink after printing.

I was a bit hesitant because of some of the negative reviews, but price is great and some of their other products work well for me, so I gave it a shot. 1st try on a screen that had been used, washed and sun dried several times. Did not work - but then neither did the speedball remover I’m trying to replace. Emailed their customer service. They were quick to respond and helpful. Then tried it on screens as I would normally use the remover: burn a screen, not liking the results and wanting a second go, or some one off projects...the remover worked quite well and was very easy Work to reclaim the screens. Saving a fair amount of coin Compared to other removers and will definitely reorder!

Overall i liked it but after using it it put a small hole in my screen which has never happened before i used it. Dnt know if it’s because of the fabric i use to make my own screens and its having a bad reaction to the chemical. but overall i do like the product.
