Today, we are going to learn about the various ways you can. Laying the clothes directly under the sunlight is a great option as there is no better source for UV light than the sun. You can sandwich the clothes between glass, film positive, screen, foam, and screen frame.<\/p>\n<p>Using unfiltered blacklight is also a great idea which is like traditional fluorescent tubes. These lights are very close to the glass on such exposure units. However, make sure to use a professional unit and a compact tabletop as well. If you are making one at home, you can substitute grow lights for unfiltered blacklights.<\/p>\n<p>Another great option is the quartz halogen! Most work lights are quartz halogen lights. This is a great light source that is often used in homebuilt exposure units which are set up just like the sunlight exposure using a quartz halogen bulb.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Screens can be exposed employing various ways, either by directing ultraviolet light or using sunlight as the sole light source.
