Screen Chem Catalyst – (makes emulsion permanent)
How to use:
Add a small amount of water to diazo-sensitiser and shake well. Next, mix the whole dose with SCREEN-SOL QV, stir well and then let it settle for approximately 2 hours to eliminate air bubbles or overnight would be preferred. Since it is a polymer emulsion we recommend you work in an area with low to little light, not under a direct light or in sunlight.
Application:
We recommend you always degrease the mesh. As a general indication, we suggest you apply 1 or 2 coats of emulsion on the external face of the screen and 1 or 2 coats on the internal face, wet on wet, then a final dry coat on the inside of the screen to push the emulsion to the back of the screen.
Drying:
We advise that you dry the screen horizontally in a ventilated drying cabinet, at 30-40°C for 40-60 minutes depending on the coating thickness.
Exposure
Lamp type, distance from lamp to screen, mesh type and coating thickness can affect exposure time. To determine the correct exposure time, we suggest you conduct some tests with an exposure calculator. Our suggestion: Lighting halogen: 5000W Application: 1-2 internal coats, 1-2 external coats Mesh 120T white 60 sec.
Pot life
If stored in its original container at a temperature between 15 and 25°C this product will preserve its characteristics for at least 1 year from the date of production, then once mixed it will preserve for 6-8 weeks from mixing. As always, these time and temperatures are guidelines, many aspects can affect the exposure times.
Clean up
Use Franmar Strip-E-Doo or Easiway 500 to remove this emulsion. Use Easiway Supra for use with a dip tank only.

This emulsion is really good quality and exposes faster than other brands I have used. It’s the only emulsion I use now.
Joseph Aston –
Always used this emulsion, never had any problems.
Bob –
Exposes very well. Rinses out quickly with a minimum of water when properly exposed. Reclaims easily with virtually no staining, and again with a minimum of water.
Stores very well in the fridge when sensitised, and is still usable for a longer period than most others I have tried.
