I set them to dry substrate side down so that the emulsion will be thickest on the substrate side. This will help with coverage. Cool post.

This as a matter of fact is the most widely used method and probably the most logic one.

Does cold water/pressure affect the emulsion? Are you letting the screen dry in between coats? What emulsion do you use? I do textile/canvas/shirt printing with screens of 130 mesh. I use speedball but have tried a number of ulano emulsions. Speedball seemed to work the best for me. Any advice is much appreciated.
