Title: Chemisphere GA 49
Post by: Logoman on April 17, 2014, 09:53:16 AM

I have been using GA 49 for removing ghost in screens for years and buying it from Chemisphere in 5 gal pale. They have told me they could not sell it to me unless I purchased 50 gal. What are you using, any suggestions of what else I could use?

Xenon F.S.I.C. $36 per gallon or Inkwreck $47 per gallon

sonny, what is this inkwreck?  I am not a fan of FSIC for dehaze, but it's a killer alternative to screen opener...smells a ton better.

Liquid ReNuit from CCI has been my de-hazer/ghost image remover of choice since i found it, and is available in quantities down to quarts.

Out of curiosity, did you ask Chemisphere if they know of someone breaking it down to smaller volumes for distribution? A manufacturer may just not want to bother.

CCI envirohaze...great stuff....the smell will choke you out though so we use a respirator...


 we actually use all CCI products, GEM-ZYME in the dip tank, Citrapaste for ink removal,  envirowipe for at press clean up.

Inkwreck cleans dried inks.

Citrapaste is awesome! I am surprised you do not use Re-Nuit, very little smell and works awesome.
