Hi! I'm new here, I've been doing silk screening or screen printing for just a month now, had my uncle teach me since he does that for a living.
I have a question though regarding reclaiming a screen:
I have tried using clorox as my 'reclaimer chemical' (since most of you recommended it) as I only use an unknown brand of emulsion bought here at my place (manila). The emulsion works great but after applying clorox or any bleach to the screen it just sticks and nothing happens, I sprayed it, blasted it with water, dipped it for minutes on a bleach but the stencil is still perfect.
Another question: What are the factors that can make the emulsion/stencil permanent on a screen?
thanks!
