Screenprinting

   Step 1: Set Up Screen. 
           Tightly stretch the fabric (chiffon) on a quilting ring or a frame 
           such that there are no wrinkles.

   Step 2: Coat Screen.(This is the hardest step)
           Coat screen with photo sensitive emulsion. The coating should be very thin. Quickly apply the
           the emulation,as it drys the emulation will become rather sticky & remove itself from the screen. 

   Step 3: Dry screen.
           In a dark room allow the screen to dry, the use of a fan will make drying more quickly (20min)

   Step 4: Burn Screen. 
           Take transparency and place on outside of screen, right side down, with clear tape. 
           Place under a light source. The lighting hood in the greenroom works well & will take 5mins.
           A well exposed screen will have a very faint orange image of the design. 
           (note:Under exposed the emulation will completely wash out,over exposed the image wont rinse out)

   Step 3: Rinse Out Image.

   Step 4: Tape Up Screen if there are visible holes.
   Step 5: Set Screen in a way in which it can easily be move up & down
   Step 6: Print.
   Step 7: Clean.
           (note: Before applying other colors, rinse out the screen and dry.)
