Mark,
I'd thought about that too. Printmakers are using spray cans of paint
to use as an easy "aquatint" for zinc or copper plates before etching
them with acids, however... I think it wouldn't work for polymer
plates because the water washout would undermine the dots of paint.
Maybe. I think a trial is in order....

Chris, Jon, Loris et al,
The original aquatints for copper gravure were done in an aquatint box to
deposit a fine and even dust of rosin. If that method worked well enough in
the past why not create a similar positive by putting black copier toner in
a similar box and depositing it on a sheet of Mylar and fuse it in the
oven.
Courser "toners" are made for powder coating if a courser screen was
needed.
