Robert,
All dry film photo resist is negative acting. It also require less UV
power to properly expose. I use film negatives that are photoplotted
to expose the dry film. My reject rate is almost zero with this
process. Photographic films will always give the best results.
I posted some information about a new liquid photoresist a few weeks
ago so maybe you should search for that information if you like the
liquid type of resist. It's water based, easy to use and is also
negative acting.
