Opportunity is missed by most people because it is dressed in overalls and looks like work. - Thomas Edison
So what kind of coating (3:1, 2:1?) of emulsion should I do on these 200 mesh screens to get the right EOM for these half tone dots?
I would do 1/1, but thats me...I know my emulsion and how it coats.
Well, to be perfectly honest... I don't even REALLY know what "dot gain" is.

But I have heard discussions of dot gain and such due to stencil thickness. I don't want to go TOO heavy if there is a potential issue with that. I would think it would be better to err a hair thin than thick. But I could be completely off.
That is what I ASSumed it was, but I didn't want to get too far a head of myself and off running in the wrong direction.How does one minimize or "learn" this effect? As I've had experience with ink build up I would think this could get ugly in that sense pretty easily.
Measure twice cut once right?
