I heard cci swr-3 is a great emulsion too. Anyone use it. Would be ideal I guess along with their discharge
Alan, alittle off topic, but 2/2 coating, is that with sharp edge or rounded?

WR-25 uses diazo, so it's not a pure photopolymer like Aquasol.Try the ProChem TexCoat. We used to use Aquasol but switched to this stuff.
The WR 25 worked fine but damn did it take a long time to expose. The first one I did at 23 light units, for context a chromablue in that mesh count would have been at 7 light units, and it was extremely underexposed to where I couldn't use it and had to burn another one. I did the next one at 30 light units and it was still underexposed but I was able to use it. After I washed it out successfully, I post exposed it for another 30 light units so it would hold up on the press.
