✔️Pro Tips:

• Prep your screen before coating with Ecotex® Hyper Haze
• Eliminate any UV light from entering the room and work under a yellow light.
• Use the sharp edge of your scoop coater
• Make sure screen is completely dry before coating emulsion
• Make sure emulsion is completely dry before printing
• Keep the emulsion lid on tight to preserve air and light leaks
• Gently mix the emulsion each time before use to help extend the life
• Write down the day you opened the emulsion on the bottle to better keep track of your chemicals.
• Keep in a cool area, emulsion will break down much faster in heat. Keeping emulsion in a fridge can help to give a slightly extended shelf life, however, emulsion that has gotten to the point of freezing will no longer work properly and must be replaced
