Re: Re: UV exposure light boxes/Solar plate

Barry,

Are you using the relief plate or the intagilo plate for your project.

The reason why I ask is that the screen may not be of any use for the imsge in
the plate. I would think that a stright releif would br best. The other part
is that they are cheaper. More bang for your buck.
