## Description

Jacquard Photo Emulsion & Diazo Sensitizer for silk screening. Mix together, following the instructions, then squeegee on the outside of the screen

Review: Beginner Friendly - I am an absolute beginner, so far I have perfectly coated 2 screen with no problem. I did fail at one screen but that was my own error. I dropped a big blob of the emulsion down onto the screen. Someone said this is not beginner friendly, but I have had no problem and I don't believe that I am just naturally skilled at this lol. The emulsion dries fairly fast and the image burning worked fine. Spraying the image out is easy and doesn't take long. I recommend a spray bottle for it. I did it first with a shower head but that was hard. I have coated a total of 3 screens and probably still have enough for one more. So it lasts pretty long. Overall this is a great product and I recommend it.
Review: Works great. - I have used this emulsion numerous times now, and the only time I had an issue was when I didn't pre-wash my screen properly. I easily removed it with emulsion remover, washed my screen, dried it thoroughly, and then reapplied the emulsion and it worked perfectly. I don't think I'll go back to speedball because I find it harder to get the time right with speedball and with this emulsion, the time of light exposure is always consistent. I just wish it came in a bigger jar so I could use it for a class.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: any clue on exposure time using a 500 watt halogen work light at 18 inches with lense of light out,and what was your exposure time**
A: You've probably already figured out what works best for your setup, but I thought I'd share my experience in case others come across this question. I found that with a 500 watt halogen lamp (UV glass and cage removed) at a 20" distance from the work I got amazing results at 13 minutes. This was in a completely blacked out room (other than red LED safety lights) with a piece of black poster board under the screen and a cheap piece of picture frame glass above.

**Q: Is the Sensitizer supposed to be a powder?**
A: Sensitizer is in a powder form because when mixed with water the chemicals start to change and eventually  expire

**Q: What would I use to clean the screen?**
A: I use a cheap speedball screen cleaner or I just replace the screen

**Q: Will speedball photo emulsion remover work on this?  or what else?**
A: I tried using the speedball daizo photo emulsion remover with this and no it didn't work but something that did work was a 1:1 solution of bleach and water. I just coated the screens with that solution, let them sit for about 15 minutes then pressure washed them and the emulsion came right off

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Does not work on metal
*by C***T on May 17, 2018*

I'm giving this a five even though I have, what will sound like, a negative review. This stuff works, and probably well for what it is intended to work on, but I bought it for something completely different so, I want to warn anyone thinking of doing the same thing to STOP, don't try it. This stuff is made for silk screening, and having done a lot of silk screening in my day, I'm very confident it will work fine for that. It doesn't work on metal though. I knew this going in, but I really didn't want to buy a whole big roll of photosensitive film for the small project I am doing. This was cheap and I figured even though I wasn't going to use it all, it would be cheaper than buying a giant roll of film for twice the price and not using it. I don't etch all that much. When I do, I primarily etch copper or brass for model parts. I can go five years before that is necessary since I can also cast or machine small parts. But, very rarely, I need more detail than either casting or machining can provide; then I need photo etching. I thought I could make this work, but the emulsion just won't stick that well to metal, no matter how well you clean it or prep it. I tried 4x before giving up. I'm ordering the more expensive photosensitive film and trying to figure out what I need to silk screen. Also, this stuff really stinks (odor wise) and I got a head ache in a well ventilated room, so I used a respirator the next time and all was good. The thing is it does come out of the wash very crisp, but there is a very thin deceiving layer left behind and you can't have that with etching. If you try to remove that, with water or a brush, it destroys the detail (on metal). I'm sure silk will prevent that over washing from happening.
