I spray both sides. You can see the blue drawing fluid disolve on the right hand side.</div><div>Keep on spraying until the blue drawing fluid is completly gone.</div><div>For small areas of drawing fluid you can also use a sponge that is wet with cold water to remove the drawing fluid from both sides of the screen. In good weather, I take my screens outdoors and spray them with a garden hose. </div><div> </div><div>After the screen dries again it is ready to be printed.</div><div>I will be using this one screen to print a few colors - right now I'm not sure of just how many.</div><div>You may have to come to the Copper Shop next weekend to find out.</div></div>Dorothyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12312127087369345326dmarkert@dorothymarkert.com
