Default Sorry im in desperate need

sorry for all the questions, heres a last ditch effort to finish a project before Christmas,

I originally planned for using a modified work light to expose my screens, the screens are halftoned, i have to realize that wont work.
HOW ABOUT THIS: buying a 150 watt high pressure sodium light and modifying it so UV rays are released, would this cut the cheese?
thank you for your time,
-Running out of time

Hi Brooks,

First of all, what type of emulsion are you using?
150 watt bulb seems weak to me. Go for 1000 watt if you can.

What works best for retaining your halftones is an emulsion that can hold up to washing out and exposes crisp.
