Hunt The Moon Screen Printing Diazo Photo Emulsion Set - Choose Size! 250ml 1000ml (250ml)

So I received my emulsion today and I have not yet used it I wanted to leave a review based solely on the packaging. The packaging was fantastic! Both securing the product and considering their environmental responsibilities.Brilliant job thank you.

It took a few attempts to get the exposure time right with natural light, I found a thin coating at 45mins on a mid day sun perfect. Will definitely buy again.

Found this to be fine to use and better that the speedball I was using previously.A constant thin layer and everything should be good, plus found the softer plastic pot easier to handle when pouring out.For me the exposure times were also about the same, fingers crossed the next batch will be just as good.

I wish i could like this product as its so much cheaper than speedball but i have tried over and over and over and it just always washes out after burning. I have tried different lamps, distances, even sunlight and it still doesnt hold. It may seem to at first but then the burnt areas quickly start to wash out, and im only using a hose on mist setting. I dont understand all the positive reviews. Ultimately i have found it is therefore a complete waste of time, effort and money.

This emulsion makes a really good stencil, I’m not sure what all the moaning is about. It can be runny, they tell you to use a bit less water if you require a thicker emulsion to work with. Personally I prefer a more runny consistency to get a nice thin coating and cut down drying time. Used with a decent scoop coater, coating screens is easy with this emulsion and it exposes fantastic - much better than any of the green emulsions I’ve used in the past. As for reclaiming - with my usual stencil remover it comes out no problem. Higher mesh count a creens that I’ve left for around a week need a bit of a pressure wash but most do, otherwise your stencil would break down after a few print runs! Overall this is my favourite emulsion and I wish they’d get the 250ml back in stock soon as I’m running out!

This stuff is utter garbage. It's a real shame as I like to support smaller companies but there are zero guidelines on how long to expose etc apart from doing a timed test - using your emulsion and prepared screen just to find out times. I've wasted two screens now, which as you know takes a day just to dry. Annoyed at the time I've lost. Speedball isn't perfect but at least it has rough guidelines and much easier to use than this. As I said, disappointed as I really wanted to use this regularly.

I've tried a variety of set-ups, lights, sunlight and different timings. I haven't managed to get it working so far. I've managed to wash out the screens easily to start again so maybe the exposure isn't long enough?

Had a very frustrating run of coating screens and having designs wash out. Emulsion turns to mush as soon as it gets wet, even after extended exposure times. Do yourself a favour and avoid.
