How to Use:
-
Apply Franmar® Emulsion Remover evenly onto both sides of the screen.
-
Allow it to sit for 30-60 seconds to penetrate and break down the emulsion.
-
Scrub gently with a brush or scrub pad to loosen the emulsion.
-
Rinse thoroughly with water, ensuring all residue is removed.
-
Observe the color change – if the remover remains unchanged, it is still active and can continue working.
Troubleshooting Tips:
- If emulsion is not fully removed, ensure the remover is within its 6-9 month shelf life (expired remover turns light brown).
-
Check exposure times – under-exposed or over-exposed emulsions may require additional scrubbing.
- Avoid "hot" solvents like paint thinners or mineral spirits, as they can lock in emulsion. Use Franmar’s ink cleaners instead.
