Default Havent screen printed in 11 years a few questions

So I haven't screen printed since I graduated High School 11 years ago. I bought a speedball kit and want to use the photo emulsion.

1. How long does the emulsion take to dry on a 8.5 x 11in screen?

2. Does my image have to be on a clear transfer, what about white paper?

Thanks Im so excited to start printing again

1. usually about 3-4 hours or so. Faster if you put fan air on it.

2. Must be clear. White paper will not work correctly.
