Opportunity is missed by most people because it is dressed in overalls and looks like work. - Thomas Edison
Back way off your pressure and use a 10 degree angle with a qukck stroke, flash them smooth, hit highlight same with faster stroke.
Quick white for the base and bright tiger for the highlivht. If you cant get quick opaque with s mesh 135 and 150, its your technigue. I use 150 s as base and 180 standard mesh for highlight every day and its the bees knees.Back way off your pressure and use a 10 degree angle with a qukck stroke, flash them smooth, hit highlight same with faster stroke.
I've had problems with opacity with amazing bright white. I ordered a gallon of quick white and I'm liking it so far
I'll give the pressure a try. We were using 150-s for a while and it was working great, then the opacity dropped so I switched to the 135 S. It didn't help a ton, but was a little better. I have a donut probe to test the dryer and have noticed that even though we keep the gates down as far a s they can go, the winter time needed some changes in temp and belt speed. The opacity problem is before the dryer though. I can see it as it's coming off the press. When you all say faster stroke and flood, If you use an M&R, what about do you have the dials set to for speed? My flood it a t 5 and stroke is at 4.5 with my pressure around 45lbs and 1/16 off contact with 20-25 NM screens.
