Default exposure question...
ive been having a problem with the ink from my film sticking to the back of the screen after exposure. i have been using toner aid but recently stopped thinking that might be a casue. not sure what what it is though...

humidity?
emulsion is not totally dry?
exposure time is too long?

any words of wisdom?

Most likely your screen isn't fully dried. It's good to have a de-humidifier in your screen area. This will allow for a dryer screen quicker.

Also, if you are in a humid climate this could be an issue.
