The first step to reclaiming your screen is to remove the inks. Start with a card or spatula to remove the bulk of the ink. Next, apply a light spray of Chroma/Screen Wash iSC and work it in a circular motion with a soft nylon, bristle brush. Finish with a low pressure water rinse.
2: Apply Stencil Remover
3: Remove Emulsion
BRUSH METHOD: If you are using the brush method to remove your screen printing emulsion, you can brush right away. Scrub both sides of the screen with a brush until you can see the emulsion start to break down. Use a dedicated brush and mark it for stencil remover. We don't recommend using a scrub pad, which will start to break down and will leave little particles in your screen. Instead, we recommend a soft nylon bristle scrub with no metal on it.
4: Pressure Wash
A good pressure washer will more thoroughly remove any stubborn emulsion or ink that remains. Without the proper pressure you will have a hard time getting those residuals to wash out completely and it will affect the quality of the next coating. 1000-1500 PSI is sufficient. When using a pressure washer, always wear eye and ear protection.
5: Degrease The Mesh
