2.select and prepare the screen, place a patterned acetate film on the screen, cover the screen with a layer of photosensitive emulsion
3. The emulsion is exposed to harden the emulsion
4. Wash out unhardened emulsion, dry the screen, and prepare the stencil for later use.
5. Print preparation, place the material to be printed flat on the printing plate, position the screen on top of the material, and get ready to print.
6.To start printing, the screen is lowered to the printing plate, the ink is added to the screen, and the ink is evenly distributed with a squeegee. The ink presses through the blank area of the stencil and transfers to the underlying printed product, thus printing the pattern on the product
