So I have been printing for awhile now and have a range of screens/inks/cleaners etc...I work out of my garage and it gets pretty damn hot in there over the summer so I was wondering what people suggest in regards to storage.
Does the heat matter?
Should I try to store the materials somewhere cool?

Re: Storage
Yes, keep your supplies cool. Especially any photographic supplies like emulsion. Heat and light are it's enemy. There should be storage info on all product labels for your convenience. I have an air unit in the screen area to keep temperature and humidity at a constant year round. Makes life much easier.

Thanks
Should I also keep screens, those that have been exposed and I am using in a cool area?

Re: Storage
Not necessary, once exposed and washed out it is no longer a viable photographic product but rather hardened emulsion stencil. I would suggest a small air unit in the wall for the garage to keep YOU cool while printing. Talk to the fat guy in the sleigh, quick.
