I have been using my gelatin printing plate for a few weeks now. Often the plates don't last very well. Mine has done well over 150 prints. When the plate starts to break down, I remelt it and pour it again. This way it is good for another 30 to 50 prints.
When making my plate I used distilled water so that no bacteria would be present in the water. This helps to keep mould at bay. My other secret ingredient also helps to purify the plate.
