Ecotex® AP Blue Screen Printing Emulsion (Quart - 32oz.) Pre - Sensitized Photo Emulsion for Silk Screens, Textiles, and Fabric - for Screen Printing Plastisol Ink, Screen Printing Supplies

We found that is emulsion is the best you can use along with plastisol inks. We put two layers on both sides of the mesh and have great results. Keep it in the dark until you are ready to print and you will have good results. Make sure you stir slowly and always bring up the layer on the bottom of the can to keep mix working well. Pop the bubbles with a stick and you will prevent air holes in the emulsion. It levels out nicely when placed in the dry box. We do ten screens at once and have great results. Dries fast and dries level. Warm water clean up is a breeze.

I love it. I will be getting more.

Love this item

This all purpose emulsion is easy to apply but we couldn't get the timing right. We tried to cure 15-20 different images and it washed out every time. We tried 80 seconds up to 4 minutes maybe even more and it never cured right.

I am relearning how to screen print. It’s been many years since I’ve done it in school and the teacher developed the screens for me. I was frustrated with speedball. I ordered it twice and the emulsion was no good in the two packs that I had to return. I love that the AP Blue is pre-sensitize. I used a screen calculator to figure my times. Even though I overloaded the screens and had drips it still came out great. So far I am very satisfied with this product.

Whale, I really did not expect it to work. I coated four new 16x20 TECHTONGDA Aluminum Silk Screen, Screens with the Ecotex AP Blue Emulsion, and they turned-out like you'd expect some 61 year-old half-wit, to-do. My new 16" Emulsion Scoop Coater Tool was really about 16-1/2", so I used a loose-bladed hacksaw to cut two horribly weh-wah cutted scooper tray trough buddy-buddies.. Pooshing the plastic end-capp back-on, in a rickity reckshaw weeble-wobble fashion -so the Emulsion Goop could run-out the sides and drip onto the floor.. uh. (shakes ee's head).. I coated four new TECHTONGDA Aluminum Silk Screen Printing Press Screens with the Blue AP Goop, coating both sides as best I could with the new Fancy Scooper (waste of money? probably could uh used a piece of wood to do the same spread job, blah blah).. I let the screens dry in my bedroom closet, for two-days.. reluctantly awaiting the day I would attempt the "light" trick.. I finally taped my Transparent Logo onto the AP Coated "Test" Screen, haphazardly tearing away my transparency letters TM (for trademark) and using a 99Cent Store IMO "Sharpie" to fake-in the TM Letters.. (uh..). I had NO IDEA how "long" to expose the screens to the light, and no idea "which light" to use...? I "heard" someone in one of the YT videos say they exposed their screens to only 30-seconds IN THE SUNLIGHT, which sounded way easier than using a 20 minute flood light of 500watt, special lighting, blah blah.. I said, here, goes.. and I walked into the sunlight by the pool, and counted to 30. one one-thousand, two one-shousand, three... Then I "hid" the Screen under my bed covers, and went for a three hour walk... ..Wanting to nap, but instead dredging the screen into the garage -dreading the projected failure of washing out the nappy Blue.. running the water.. hey wait.. it looks like my logo is appearing (water washing over the screen..) Grabbing the Big Handy Brush by the garage sink.. I scrubbed and scrubbed, and low & behold the Emulsion started peeling off in Globby Clumps (like Elmers Glue might do..).. I'll be DANGED! IT LOOKS PRETTY GOOD! Hmmmm. I wonder how that happened..? NOT BAD, I'm Shocked! next, I'll need to cut a piece of wood to become the surface for screen printing t-shirts. Oops, I made the Screen Backwards because I "remembered" to reverse the logo, so, this screen will need to be treated [special] because I reversed the wrong side, meaning the inner screen will not have the buddy-buddy luxury of a border facing me, instead the borders will be facing down on-top of the t-shirts.. ugh not bad for an old-f... don da-da don! Thanks Ecotex AP Blue, for Surprising Me with something that works!!!

Quality was great and imagine burn time was easy to figure out. 18sec for me and the image was clear and durable. Great value for my money

I don't know what I was thinking buying this stuff. At work we use Ulano products, and I bought this stuff for home because it's cheaper. You really do get what you pay for. About halfway through my quart and I've had about a 30% success rate on screen washouts. This stuff takes forever to dry, and even when it appears to be bone dry, it falls apart on the screen during washout. It is not water resistant so you can't soak before the rinse. My success with halftones is even smaller, this emulsion cannot produce a clean halftone in the 40+ lpi range. Really, the only thing I'd use this for is big, large graphics with no detail, like player names and numbers for jerseys. But then again, spend $15 more and get Ulano or Chromaline and don't worry about your emulsion breaking apart right in front of your eyes 70% of the time. This stuff is seriously poor quality. Should've known when buying a brand that has "eco" right in the name. This stuff will actually cost you money and time in it's amount of failures. I wish I could 0 star this review.
