Opportunity is missed by most people because it is dressed in overalls and looks like work. - Thomas Edison

It is my favorite because it reclaims easily even if under exposed. If your emulsion is giving you problems in the reclaim room you might want to find one that does not.

Theirs no excuse for underexposure as it leads to an assortment of problems, one of them being difficult reclaim.
Emulsion is ChromaBlue pure photopolymer and exposure unit is Nuarc 40-1K Mercury bulb 1000w.It takes about 2 minutes per screen (I have never measured the time, it has light integrator. It might be a bit more or less than 2 min). No issues with washing out, decent detail, 2 year shelf life, blue in color (do not like the look of pinkish emulsions). I have a bit of the emulsion left and I will be switching to ImageMate PC 701, it is almost the same emulsion (per people at Chromaline, they make it) with a slight faster exposure times and a better price at my supplier.

But I am sure you knew that.
