Exposure times

[Sebastian J. Osterfeld]

Hi Chris,

I had some trouble with SPR220 in the past, basically it exposes 
quickly, but development can take up to 20 minutes!

Generally, slight overexposure is best, especially if you can live with 
slightly rounded edges. I would try:

SPR220-7 @ 15 microns - 30 seconds exposure
SPR220-7 @ 7 microns - 15 seconds exposure
SPR220-3 @ 3 microns - 7 seconds exposure

Best regards,
Sebastian

Let me know if this helps,
