Review on Ecotex® DC Blue Screen Printing Emulsion: Quart-32Oz Diazo Photo Emulsion For Silk Screens, Plastisol & Water Based Ink by Megan Smith

Revainrating 1 out of 5

Warning! Do not use with water based inks!

This product is advertised to work with water based inks, emulsion started absorbing and seeping water from the ink within 3 squeegee passes. Screen was exposed correctly and post exposed. On third squeegee pass the emulsion became sticky and started sticking to shirts. Emulsion also started releasing into the water based ink. Three shirts ruined and a lot of ink wasted because of this inferior product. Be very careful with this brand or look elsewhere.

Pros
  • I love the quality if this emulsion. Quite impressive.
Cons
  • The emulsion has a short shelf-life and can spoil quickly if not stored correctly, which can be a significant drawback for those who don't screen print regularly
