"He who marches out of step hears another drum." ~ Ken Kesey
Just because I use this brand, coat this way on those kind of screens and use that kind of exposure for those amounts of light units.. Does not mean you will get the same results so please, use what you like and test test test then test some more until your combination of techniques results in the best possible outcome your shop can achieve. Then document what you did and put it in the shop procedure manual. That way you can measure in the future and show the new guy exactly how you want it done.
Have you ever used this exposure unit? What emulsion?Have you ever used any photopolymer emulsion?Do you have an exposure calculator?
