Thank you so much for your help. I am using Chromaline emulsion single cure. I am building a table with a jig to keep the screen in place while I apply the emulsion to the screen. It is just to difficult for a person that is starting up to use one hand to apply the emulsion and the other to hold the screen.
I have also recently added the yellow light to the shop so that the flourescent light does not affect the emulsion. Im trying to rule out these things. I have also just received my CCI exposure calculator. I am hoping that these changes will improve my ability to burn a successful screen!!!
