Is there anything wrong with using a squeegee to apply emulsion to a silk screen?
I just started screen printing and I’m having a hard time using a scoop coater. I just finished burning a screen on which I just applied the emulsion with an ink squeegee. So far so good. Is this a bad habit to get into?
Emulsion, not ink.
When I did silk screening many years back with a vacuum screener, all I had was a squeegee to push the ink around… Scoop coater… I’ve never even heard of one.
The printing I was doing had to be extremely accurate (checked with a low power microscope), and I managed just fine with a squeegee.
