depending on how strong your bulbs are, depends on how long you burn the screens. as well as how far away you are. If you burn too long you can loose fine details, obviously not long enough then the image goes away. 250 watt halogens work well. 250 watts x 2 bulbs = 10 min - Play with the distance a bit.

How long and at what distance do you burn the screen for? Right now, I do about a foot away for 10 minutes using 2 photo bulbs.

both sides is best. You will get a better clearer image.

Question: I've been silk screening for about 6 months. When I emulsion a screen, I only emulsion the print side (back), but I've seen people emulsion both sides. What is the recommended way?
