Description

The screen printing frame cycle during the printing process is an important process. It starts with degreasing your screen to wash away any dirt particles or oil, and creates a clean surface for your screen printing emulsion to adhere to. We recommend our MD-100 Mesh Degreaser. It is easy to use. Simply spray both sides of your screen, scrub, and power wash the screen. MD-100 is drain safe. After this process, let your screen dry and then apply emulsion.

You want to scrub off the remaining ink and emulsion so you can use your screen frame again. Using an ink degradent, emulsion remover, and a haze remover if need be, apply the chemicals and wash your screen. It is best to use a high pressure washer for reclaiming. Alternatively, you can use a dip-tank and all you will need to do is wash away the ink and emulsion.

Ink degradents are used to remove plastisol ink from the screen. LSP ID-701 Ultra Wash is a low odor solvent made to dissolve all types of inks. It is fast-acting and is even a mild stain remover.

Lawson's ID-200 Universal Soy Based Ink Degradent is low odor and soy-based, making it eco-friendly. This textile and graphic ink degradent is drain safe and works well on plastisol, UV, enamel, lacquer, and vinyl inks.

Lastly, ID-360 Ink Degradent & Stain Remover is an aggressive Ink Degradent & Mild Stain Remover for production screen printing facilities. dissolves ALL INKS and cleans residual stains and is drain safe. Includes degreaser. Mild-Strong odor.

When finished, use SR-45 Screen Printing Stencil Remover to remove emulsion and makes the screen frame reusable. SR-45 can be diluted or used straight from the bottle. Let the chemical stay on the frame for about 30 seconds on both sides before spraying out. Wash the screen from the bottom up. The Lawson SR-45 Screen Printing Stencil Remover is a odor-free, non-hazardous chemical.
