How do I dry a newly coated screen?Updated 2 years ago

You want fans blowing directly over the emulsion/coated screen.

You want to make the space AS DRY as possible — below 40% humidity. You need a dehumidifier.

You want the space to be warm, around 80°F is good, but can be done at 70°F or 90°F.

The heat and fans will actively evaporate the moisture from the emulsion and the dehumidifier will keep the space as dry as possible, allowing the emulsion to evaporate quicker.

To learn more about the drying process, please watch this video.
