I read a review similar to the one I am writing now, and I am so glad that I read it before wasting more money on other brands of emulsion. This is a fantastic product and well worth the money!

THE BEST BRAND, simple

good

arrived quickly and product is just as expected. The product itself is good for screen printing and I have all but used the bottle and will be buying more very soon. not a bad word to say.

Good stuff.

Man benötigt einen Sensibilisator noch dazu. Warum nicht beides in einem verkaufen? Somit ist das Produkt unbenutzbar und zu teuer.

This emulsion works very well. Keep in mind we are very inexperienced screen printers and are just now navigating our way around. We used Speedball's website for instructions on printing (there are several ways to print). Following their online guide really helped. The first run, we applied too much emulsion and it created dots or drips from pooling at certain places on the screen. Lesson learned, we moved on and applied it much thinner the next time and that eliminated the drips.Yes, they tell you this, but as a newbie, you think you're painting on enough but there is such thing as too much. We refrigerated the solution as instructed and it has performed well being preserved. Another hard lesson we learned is that screen cleaner is NOT the same thing as emulsion remover. We cleaned for well over an hour with just screen cleaner and it does not break up used/exposed emulsion. You need an emulsion remover to tackle this stuff. Though we did end up trying some home remedies to clean off the emulsion (lemon or citrus cleaners, hard spray (without a pressure washer) and scrubbing. We saved the screen for another use without purchasing the emulsion remover, but we will add that to our arsenal. This is a fun, albeit learning process. I now hold higher admiration for those screen printing companies that put a lot of work and apply the right methods to making a t-shirt. This is fun, but if you plan more than stencil screen prints, there is an art to it. Hopefully, we'll become artists with a little practice and patience.

I got this container of emulsion because a printer friend offered to teach me the basics of screen printing. This stuff works perfectly, but I am glad I had an experienced teacher. Spreading it to the correct thickness, exposing it correctly and then washing off the excess without blowing out details was a but tricky. I probably should have picked less detailed art to start, but I also probably learned more by using art I really do want to print. In any case, the only improvement I could suggest is to add a 1.5 oz measuring cup to measure the water for the sensitizer, but eyeballing did work. However, the shipping can be a nightmare as others have noted. My first order was shipped in an envelope with no protection for the thin Speedball box inside. The bottle was crushed and the emulsion had leaked. I could not even get the envelope open because it was one solid mass of emulsion. The replacement order was shipped in a box and arrived with no damage. Since the shipping was done by Amazon, I did not take off any stars from the product. I hope that Amazon addresses the packing issue because it is a great product once you get an intact set.

Been using this since i started screen printing at home. It is always on point no issues and burn time is low about 6 to 7 mins @ 500 watt buld. Always comes out perfect. I tried another product and had nothing but headaches. I will not stray from the path again. Awesome product for home use.
