Curious that it looks like it's in a see through bottle? Obviously it is not light sensitive. You received no directions with it? Where did you get it? Is there a brand name?

I use Ulano. distance depends on your screen size, but generally 14 inches with a 500 watt halogen for 13 minutes.

Is that botton clear? If so, there must be something else you mix it with before you apply it to your screen?

Mix with 1 part sensitizer, what the color of your emulsion?
your halogen bulb with casing or not?
you burn the image correctly?
