I had this problem. Robert Schaller taught me that it will work much better if
you can find some print stock, and then put that in fixer without exposing it.
You'll remove the silver-halide, but leave the gelatin, and Liquid Light will
stick to this much better.
You can also dry it (in complete darkness) with a hair dryer for 10-15 min. I
found that this created a tighter bond that was sufficient for photograms and
contact prints on 4-6 ft strips of 16mm film. Regardless, be very gentle in the
processing and drying.

Subject: [Frameworks] Liquid Light onto clear 16mm - any tips?
Howdy,
Trying to paint "Liquid Light" photo emulsion onto clear 16mm leader. exposing
photograms etc, then hand processing. But the emulsion is falling off by the
time we get to fixer. Works slightly better with clear film that has some
emulsion already on it, but not much. Anybody have any better experiences /
tips to share? Maybe spraying a clear varnish onto the leader first, or
roughing up with fine sandpaper? or . . .
Thanks Big!
Best,
