Another test with the final art for the PP label. I like the letter spacing on this one - it looks factory. I have to take care when I rinse the screens to get all the emulsion out of the small letters and have been using a soft car detailing brush.

Unfortunately it removes some of the cured emulsion too. You can see how blotchy the screen is. I think it's just more practice making the screens. All that said, it doesn't seem to be impacting the output.

I really globbed the ink on and rubbed it in this time to see what would happen. It gave me a little of the factory smudge. I keep reminding myself that the factory wasn't after perfection and they just slapped these things on.

Overall, I'm pleased with how user friendly this setup is. If you aren't happy with the application, the ink is water soluble when wet so just wipe it down and rinse the screen off and do it again.
