Title: Discharge agent DC-294N...Ugh
Post by: farmboygraphics on July 10, 2015, 02:50:10 PM
So I decided to give this discharge base thing a whirl. Got a small amount of discharge agent and clear base. Just opened the discharge agent quart and holy crap, smells like someone bottled up a roadkill skunk. I can't even imagine using this stuff. Website say's this stuff is "low odor", no...no it isn't. I'm open to suggestions as a good place to start that doesn't smell like the south end of Pepe La Pew.

Order it from Davis? Try the CCI stuff, it stinks but not as bad. Call Image Supply Source, they will service your area.

We've been using Matsui discharge for a while now with great results. Very low oder... unless the mixed ink has been sitting out for a day... then it smells like rotten eggs. Keep your shop well ventilated regardless though.
