From the looks of the pictures, i do not see a plate. You need to insert an etched plate on top of the sub-plate. If you do have a plate installed, you may want to open the vent of the ink cup once it sits on top of the plate to release any built up gasses/air, once you let the air out of the cup, re-tighten. Lastly, your ring may have a small chip in it. This small chip could allow the ink to escape. What type of machine are you using this on? Hi Pongballs!

The shorter the exposure time, the deeper the etch. The longer the exposure, the shorter the etch. The depth of the image is controlled by the length of the second plate exposure.

In order to get rid of that sticky feeling, you must heat the digibond on the part before you print. If it still feels sticky, this means that you did not heat the digibond enough. As for your brushes, we recommend using lint free towels instead to apply the digibond. You can simply discard the towel after use and you will not have to worry about cleaning your brushes.
