    should i take the pressure off the top rollers overnight, and do i leave the form to plate as it is. Ive never used these and would like them to last.

    its been a long time since i have used one, but if i remember correctly,the only time i ever took the pressure off the top roller is if the press was going to be sitting for a while with out running. long weekend or what ever. the form just leave alone.

    I take the pressure off every night. Don't really know if it does anything, just how I learned.

    Take the pressure off every night is right otherwise over time you could develop flat spots on your rollers then you wont get a nice even flow of solution to your plate. Also same goes with the form you let it sit with pressure and you could develop a flat spot crestlines will last you a very long time if you follow those simple rules
