I got a little carried away with the hair dryer while making this test plate and ended up fusing the protective plastic layer to the ImagOn emulsion. When it was time to print the design onto the plate, I was unable to separate the protective layer from the emulsion until I peeled the both up off of the plate and used two pieces of tape, one on top of the plastic and one on the underside of the emulsion, to peel the protective layer away. I wish I could get the emulsion to stick to the plate the way it stuck to the plastic!

Anyway, lesson learned – don’t overheat the plate after laminating.
