Emulsions

Emulsions ain't emulsions, they really are a critical part of the screen printing process, and they're one of those consumables where you get what you pay for. We recommend Chromaline simply because they've proven themselves to us as reliable, commercial-grade products. Wholesale Print only carries a limited range of emulsions purely for the fact that fresh is best, we like to keep this stock limited and turning over quickly, to get the best possible result for you on screen. But which emulsion?

Emulsion	Ink types	Price	Sensitized	Detail	Washout	Description	Approx life
Chromaline UDC Ace	Plastisol Solvent Water Discharge	$$$$	Yes	Excellent	Hose	The ultimate print resolution at an affordable price.	2 months
Chromaline CP Tex	Plastisol Water Discharge	$$$	Yes	Good	Pressure	A cost effective and very capable mid-range emulsion.	2 months
Chromaline ChromaLime	Plastisol Discharge	$$$$	Yes	Good	Pressure	A fast exposing one-pot emulsion with the longest shelf life emulsion if you're not coating screens regularly. Not suitable for halftones or fine lines.	1 month
Chromaline MagnaCure Max R	Plastisol Solvent Water Discharge	$$$	Yes	Good	Pressure	The most durable emulsion for water-based printing.	1 month

If you're only using the occasional screen, we recommend taking advantage of our reclaim, coat, and exposure service. "Approx life" are strictly estimates for comparison purposes only, and shelf-life is greately affected by the correct handling and storage as per the manufacturer's specifications.
