Just like a pro uses
This was identical (other than color) to what we used in a professional screen printing shop. Moderation is key or you will have quite a mess on your hands... and screen, and floor, and anything else you are near. I used this with the YUDU printing machine. It worked well for the small jobs I did. I just used the ink squeegee that came with the machine. It probably would've been easier with a better squeegee but I was just doing one or two screens at a time and it didn't require a lot of precision. If you have a smaller design, you can put emulsion only across where your design will be to conserve. Just be sure to tape it off well. You can spread this stuff pretty thin too. I think I made 10 or 15 full screens with this bottle. It's the consistency of white glue and smells pretty similar. If you spill, it's easy to clean up with a wet cloth/paper towel or wait til it dries and peel it off. This is easily removed with the YUDU emulsion remover.

Great, easy to use product!
I've used screen printing products on and off for quite a few years now on various projects. Because my projects varied, I was never able to nail down a good exposure time. This product made exposure easy. It changes color as it hardens so all you have to do is keep an eye on it, and when the exposed area turns blue - You're done! So easy.

Daizo and Speedball make overall good stuff.
The first thing you want to do is check that nothing has broken, spilled, or dried. The emulsion with be thick like glue and blue in color. The remover will be thin and clear like medical alcohol or bleach. Both should have cardboard gasketed lids and foil caps on them. The sensatizer (tiny bottle) should be either dry and at the bottom, or thick and at the bottom. If any of the sensatizer is spilled out of the little bottle (along the threads or down the side) send the kit back for a new one immediately. The product is good if you get it undamaged, but Speedball uses incompetant monkey powered robots made from scrap pulled from the Robot Wars set to package everything so check your stuff.As for operation, when the sensatizer is added to the emulsion it turns a good medium (not quite emerald) green and will turn back to blue after it cooks out when you burn the stencil. Look for a light-medium blue hue and the uncooked parts under the negative image should have a yellow,...

Product Description

The Yudu screen-printing system is the easiest, cleanest way to let everyone know who you are—and how you see the world. Emulsion sheets allow you to reuse screens by letting you burn new images so you’re never stuck with doing the same design over and over again. Its no mess application with water not only dries quickly, but it also produces an even coat of emulsion so you can produce higher quality prints. Use the Yudu Personal Screen Printer to unsilence yourself with apparel, home decor, art prints, posters, cards, schoolwork and more. Top to learn more

Nice product
First off, Amazon offers the best price that I have found for Yudu products, but it is still an expensive tool.I have had mixed luck with the emulsion sheets. My first try worked well, but it took a long time for the drying step. My second round quickly turned into my third sheet of emulsion as it was difficult to see what was and wasn't dry - so I ended up smudging the emulsion to a point that my design was ruined. So BE SURE the emulsion is thoroughly dry before trying to remove the protective plastic sheet. I also found that washing the emulsified screen (say, when changing colors), the emulsion could not take a lot of washing -- it tended to bubble. In fact it bubbled even while going through the first drying step. Once bubbled, it's near impossible to fix.I also think that finely detailed images gave the emulsion some trouble, as bits would bubble of easily or I couldn't remove emulsion easily in other spots. Stick with bold, simple images for best...

Great item, poor packaging
I love this item, I use it for all my screen printing!!Both times I have purchased this emulsion from this website it came poorly packaged. Both times the jar was clunking around the box. The most recent time, I opened the box to find some emulsion splattered around in the box because the seal broke on the bottle and it leaked out the cap.

Does not come with sensitizer
Hey, I haven't used it yet, but all I got to say is I assumed it came with the sensitizer, because most of the other emulsions I looked at did. So, if you're thinking about buying this, make sure you get the sensitizer, too. You can't use it without that. Other than that, it came on time and appears to be all good.

Works Great and Lots of Fun
I got my Yudu here on Amazon. But the cost of the emulsion sheets were way to expensive for me. I admit I never used the sheets included in the Yudu kit (still have them). Instead I purchased this kit from DIY (at their website not through Amazon).I learned how to coat the screen and it was very easy to do. I am not a screen printer or "crafty," (I am working on my masters in Software Engineering). Yet, I found the screen coating really fun. Some days after studying, I'll coat my Yudu screens before I go off to bed. The next day I have screens ready to use.This holiday I made three color shirts as gifts. So this kit really helped when I screwed up one of the screens. The liquid emulsion allows me to prep a screen really fast and wash out a mistake. It is better than the sheets in that the cost per screen is more like 50 cents. As I now own 7 Yudu screens, I can coat a screen in under a minute. I do not have to worry about air-bubbles and such.There...

Product Description

If you're tired of spending 0 to make a Yudu screen, this is for you. If you're tired of spending 0 to screw up a Yudu screen, this is really for you! Coating your screen with liquid emulsion is EASY and costs less than per screen.

Once you've coated your screen with liquid emulsion, 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 .99 [3oz bottles], that's a savings of over 00 alone!)

The diyTeeShirts Hack the Yudu Screen Kit includes:

--1 qt. of Saatichem Graphic HU dual-cure emulsion (coats 50 screens, and is good for use with waterbased and paltisol inks.)
--1 scoop coater sized just right for applying the emulsion to the screen.
--diyTeeShirts Hack the Yudu Screen Video Tutorial: How to Coat Screens with Liquid Emulsion.
--diyTeeShirts Hack the Yudu Screen PDF: notes and quick reference for coating your YUdu screen with liquid emulsion.
--1 5oz bottle of concentrated emulsion remover (enough to mix a whole gallon)
