"He who marches out of step hears another drum." ~ Ken Kesey
clear tape? any reason you don't flash it? with our wonderful reg on the gauntlet, we have to off register the screens from one to the next due to squeeg pressure......pita. then test print, micro, flash and repeat until they are all set....and that's number 152 why I can not wait for a new press. we use old shirts as pellons seem to give us a false reading on pressures and speeds.
I am just curious how the tape method works, if it's faster/better then flashing...knowing my luck, I'll go through 6 rolls of tape on one design or tape myself to the platen and someone will jamn me up under the flash...
I believe in using very thin registration marks. Thinner than what Adobe provides as a standard. I provide registration marks with most all of my seps unless someone request not to add them. The thing is, most want them thick so the don't have a hard time exposing them.Part of holding good detail is reaching for goals of and making adjustments to hold those thin lines. When you can hold those thin lines, it's a tell tail sign that your doing good on your halftones also.Then, you have the "tight registration" factor. The fact that registering thinner line registration marks tells you that you are more "on point". Fat reggies make it much harder to determine. You could be off and not realize it but think it's the best you can get. I say, shoot for the stars. If you can't get to the stars, at least you are passing the moon. Much better than never getting off the ground.
