    great video, i just started printing and use chroma blue 🤝🏽
  • Thank you for the very helpful video! I have a few questions that I hope can be answered. 1) When washing out emulsion on a screen after exposing it, can the screen be exposed to UV light in a non-light safe room? The only place I can put my washout booth is in my backyard under a shaded patio area. It is by no means light-safe, but it is very well shaded with shade tarps on all sides. 2) What is the name/brand of the screen holder equipment at 5:06?
