Post by: BP on February 14, 2019, 02:25:38 PM

Has anyone here ever tried a dry ice blaster to clean a press? i would love to see what it could do to a auto!

We didn't do it on our screen print press, but when our shop bought a 6 color Heidleberg Speedmaster, we did a dry ice blast on it, because it was not maintained very well.  It definitely was worth the effort, and made cleaning it up so much easier.

I would say if it could do wonders on the German parts of this Heidelberg, it should work well for a screen print press just fine.
