Why is my emulsion washing off?!?! It was a new screen, heard that makes a difference, had higher hopes for the second try, got a little further but still washed off around the design when I was spraying it out. What am I doing wrong? Luke warm water? Cold water? Going for my 3rd try and I'm going to use the blow dryer instead of the machine to dry the emulsion. Does temp. matter? It's average 60 degrees in the room I'm working in? What am I missing? Can anyone help?

So, my first try was perfect! On the wrong side of the screen! UUUGH!
But, now I have 5 screens drying in my darkroom/bathroom.
Gotta make myself a drying rack now. Thanks for the video! Ginny

Pretty cool video. You make the Yudu thing look very easy to use. Everyone seems to have such a hard time with it. Nice job. Screenprinting rules! ☠

Wow! I watching crafting videos all the time and I have never seen so many hater responses. I just wanna say thank you for the video. I bought my yudu on line for 99 dollars. We plan to only use to make fun tshirts for my high schooler. She is in the cross country team, swim and waterpolo teams. The girls like making shirts before a game. So this is perfect for us.

Are you married? If you marry me, I'd make sure that you were always supplied with fast internets.

My boyfriend bought me a Yudu about a week ago. All it has done so far is waste time, money and really piss me off. Had not had a single thing work for it.

how to build a 4 color screen printing press-1by katikclothing142,607 views
Thank you for the video! I just grabbed one from Joann - they are on sale for $99. I'm trying to screen print flat skateboard decks - no idea what I'm doing, though! I figure at least it will be easy to burn screens, even if I have trouble with the other stuff people mention.

@metalogical Just make sure you don't use too much ink since a deck is non absorbent. Also, after you heat set it (carefully with a heat gun?) you may want to spray it with some sort of protectant since it will get some wear & tear. -Good luck!

I hope that you can give me some pointers on the "inking" of the t-shirt. I have tried not to flood my screen too much to the point that the letters bleed together and also bleed through the shirt, to not putting enough and having to pull the screen again and it smearing the print. HELP ! I have lost 2 onesies this morning and I am about to screem. Ok, I already did that, but you get the idea! I hope you have give me some pointers ... TY Lee

@leelordsc The amount of ink and pressure you put on the squeegee when "pulling" a design varies by they type of fabric you're using. The thinner the fabric, like a onesie, the less ink & pressure....the thicker the fabric, like a sweatshirt, the more ink & pressure you need to press it into the fabric. My guess is you're using too much pressure. The good news is that as long as you haven't heat set your messed up designs you can usually scrub & wash them out.

I can't seem to get past the emulsion step. The emulsion does not stay on the screen. It peels off like a deflated balloon. I have dried it for HOURS. Literally. And a lot of it with a hair dryer! Emulsion still peels right off. I am about to send it back.

@erinker74 A couple of things to double check: -Are you sure your screen is wet enough before you apply the emulsion? -Are you sure your applying the correct side of the emulsion to the screen? As far as drying goes, I dry mine over night (I'm in SoCal)...but if you live in a humid climate you may need it to dry longer.
My fingers are crossed for ya! I know it can be frustrating!
