How to burn a screen on a light box.

Once your screen has dried off and your ready to print you will need to use a light box. This is a light with a high uv concentration that will burn the image. The light box has a vacuum that will suck down a thin silicone skin on to the screen in order to hold it in place. You must be very careful when shutting off the light box that you have turned the vacuum off otherwise there is a risk of the glass shattering.
To begin with when using the light box you have to set the screen in position on top of the glass and lower the the lid with the screen in place. Once the lid is lowered and locked in place switch on the vacuum and switch the UV light on and away you go.
