You Don't Have to Have Another Yudu Screen FAIL
Twitter is fluttering like a humming bird with complaints and lamentations about the sheets of film that come with the Yudu Personal Screen Printing Machine. Those sheets are called capillary films, and there are a variety of problems with them:
- -Capillary films are expensive
- -Film sheets are tricky to apply
- -The emulsion sheets for the Yudu are tiny
- ...and the list goes on.
But Don't Get Frustrated, You Can Hack the Yudu.
All you need to do is start coating your Yudu screens with liquid emulsion. It's not hard. It's not expensive. It's not rocket science! You just need the right supplies and a tiny bit of information.
Once you've coated your screen, you just treat it the same way you would if you used the Yudu emulsion sheets.
- Burn the screen for the same amount of time.
- Dry the screen in the Yudu screen rack, if you like.
- The emulsion uses the very same emulsion remover too, and the kit includes enough concentrate to mix a whole gallon of emulsion remover. (If you bought the Yudu emulsion remover for $7.99 [3oz bottles], that's a savings of over $300 alone!)
Stop Getting Robbed Every Time You Make a Screen!
Once you get this down, you'll be making screens for 10 cents on the dollar. That's right. Your screens will be so cheap, you won't mind even if you did screw them up.
