Hi UnlimitedBT, Craig,
I used a conventional alumunium plate, I exposed it under my platemaker and developed it, so the emulsion was washed away.
I print the blank plate with local ink (not genuine ink) maybe it is not dye-ink, because it dried fast, then I cured it.. I dont have curing unit, so I heated it above fire 40cm(16inch) for 30-60sec
of course the curing process is the weakest at my experiment, so at some area, the result of printing is good, the other was washed away (because it's not cured well yet). the other experiment, I over-cured it, then the result is cloudy print (oxidized?)
I want to do more, can anybody tell me how to make curing unit?
