Emulsion issues

We got a gallon of HiFi emulsion and when it arrived it had the consistency of paste and wasn't usable at all. We got ahold of Ryonet and they sent us a gallon of Dual Cure Diazo to replace it. They said that happens once in awhile. Well...the new gallon we got came just perfect and we used it once ...

CMYK or simulated process.

Ok I have several questions: We are going to be printing an image of an actual photograph onto some t- shirts. I'm hoping this is the right spot on the forum. First question is does CMYK take a white undercoat which means it would take 5 screens. Then if you go with CMYK #1 what do you tell Accu rip...

Large run questions?

I posted this the other day but can't seem to find this now so forgive me if it ends up posted twice. I am going to be doing a run of about 1000 shirts for a national company. What I wanted to know was what extra considerations should I take in doing such a large run. Will the screens last that long...

Will the screens last that long or will I have to re-burn screens half way through. Does the emulsion need to be double coated on the screens ...
