jmd:
Has anyone used the Kiwo Polycol Discharge Emulsion straight up for discharge? Pros and cons...Thanks

ebscreen:
Yes and I did not like it. Broke down faster than the "non-discharge" emulsion I was using.

For a pure photopolymer that resists discharge Murakami Aquasol HV is good, and CCI ProChem
TexCoat is even better. Post exposure wipe on hardener for runs over 200 is recommended, though
I use it for just about any size run just in case.

I'll get around to the Diazo and Dual Cures before too long, just can't stand going from 30 second
exposures to 3 minute exposures.
 

Clark:
I used a couple of gallons of it.  I liked it personally...I used it for a water-based towel run and it worked great. 

Shawn (EIP):
I had CCI get locked into my screen when using it for plastisol ink. Beware...

I used the One coat and did not like it. Broke down pretty quickly. That was using the hardener on both sides and adding the diazo. Exposed the crap out of it too. Throw in about 4 hours baking in the sun and it still sucked.

I just add diazo to my Murikami TXR and coat it with hardener on one side. Holds like a rock. Look at the threads in the Ink section. Tony has some good stuff in there. The one he uses works awesome too.
