Mark,
Just tried this idea of yours on a sim process job where the black was printing too dark and was on the verge of needing an edit and a new screen. We tried everything including up to an 85 duro sharp blade before the HD additive, but with the additive the gain was cut considerably and made just the difference we needed.
Thanks for the tip!

. . . .this is such an important thread, worth another look, so I'm bumping it. . . .I am going to print this sucker out too.

Good job Jay. I'm printing it out also. Mark is one of those guys I can listen to for hours. If anyone has the chance to see him, it's worth your time and money. Every time!
squeegee:
I have learned a lot from Mark over the years, I wish he'd drop in more often, this thread alone helped me out of a couple jams. Just as I'm rereading it I'm thinking it's time to sharpen the squeegees, we've gotta keep up better on that.
