Thanks for chiming in.
Yes, round edges. We use roller frames and tensioned above 25n on all. I feel like if there were less pressure, it could apply just a little more emulsion in each pass without having to do excessive numbers of passes.
Someone had sent me a PM on this and asked "Why do I want a thicker coat of emulsion?" Answer is, 10% on a 230 or 305 is great for sim process. It's not great for solid spot color printing. I want a higher wall, deeper trough (stencil)
for the ink deposit.
When the wall's edge is short, and the emulsion dries and forms to the mesh threads, it's too thin. So a face coat is great for that, ( Lower RZ), but thats yet (adding more time to the process of each screen). Adding another coat is a 3rd coat, (adding more time to the process of each screen). So, applying thicker coat during the 2:2 seems it would be (in comparison), cutting that 3rd coat time in half. Maybe I'm over thinking it.
The person who PM'd me thinks just changing emulsions would do the trick, but there really is nothing wrong with the one we have other than the 2:2 provides a 10% EOM. That to me is too low for crisp clean edges (high walls).
