Hello there!
I read through other "halftone problem" posts on here, but I can't fix my problem.
I have tried 5 or 6 times to properly expose a halftone design. I got 1 to come out correctly, but it took be an hour to washout!
Specs: 230 mesh yellow with a halide light.
I know the halide light works because I have exposed 30 normal transparencies in the last few days.
I have tried exposing the halftones for 10 min, 7 min, 5 min, 3 min, and 1.5 min
On the 2 most recent ones they would not washout but if I would "gentyl" rub a section of the screen with my thumb for 5 seconds the emulsion would rub off.
Thanks! CRB
p.s. - If another printer came to your shop and asked to expose a screen for them, approximately how much would you charge per screen
