Screen Print Direct Ecotex® Screen Printing Emulsion Remover (Gallon - 128oz.) - Diazo Photo Emulsion Cleaner for Silk Screens and Stencil Remover

Excellent product. Works amazingly well

One quick misting on both sides and a slight pad rub and you are on to your next project. I'm learning so I have become to call this my favorite product. It's very comforting to be able to completely erase your screw ups! You get new life, for your screens anyhow.

As allways this brand works easy and can be cut down a lot I used it in a 35 gallon dip tank it takes about 5 minutes to brake down old hard screens at a ratio of 35 to 1 so when it’s sprayed straight on it works fast shipped with spill proof cap also

I am a new printer & just learning how to screen print. I had an old design but didn’t want to destroy the stretcher so I did some research & found this emulsion. I watched a YouTube video to find out exactly how to remove the emulsion. The best technique I found was to spray both sides of the screen, gently rub it around with a sponge & wait a few minutes. I test sprayed an area with a garden hose & it started coming off. This was the second time in my life I have used emulsion remover & it worked great. If someone as novice as I am can use this product correctly, then anyone can. Great stuff!

I'm not sure what the deal is with some of the "canned" rating scales amazon fired at me: Warmth? Okay... not really relevant. But here's the scoop: I would have given this five starts but I can't. It is a great product, much more env. friendly than alternatives on the marked. When I tested it on two 200 mesh screens. One coated in multiple coats of Ecotex PRW and one with a single coat of Speedball's photo emulsion (and a few splotches of screen filler). Result two will shock you! The Ecotex melted off like it was nothing! The Speedball stuff I still can't get to break down. The Screen filler broke away fairly easily, but after multiple treatments I think I am just going to cut out the screen (handmade wooden frame) and replace it with one I will coat in Ecotex. This stuff says it will work on any type of photo emulsion... but maybe that is not entirely the case. Either way, I am really happy with the Ecotex PRW emulsion and wont be using the Speedball product anymore, but I can't give this emulsion remover 5/5 since it is not exactly as advertized.

This made really quick work of 7 screens that I inherited! You really need to make sure that you work very quickly though. The instructions say not to let the spray sit for more then 60 seconds or the emulsion will fuse to the screen: but I say work more quickly then that even. Quickly spray front and back and then use the wide spray on your pressure washer to get the solvent off (and most comes off with those first few swipes) then you can switch to the more concentrated strong stream to get everything else off. The photo shows what happens when you take your time. The one on top is how most of them turned out, the one on bottom is what happened when my dad distracted me by laying into his car horn behind me in the driveway. Didn't distract me too long, but long enough that the stuff on the bottom would not come off at point blank range with the highest pressure setting and more sprays of the solvent. Thankfully it's fixable! I'll just use that screen for a smaller design and put new emulsion over it. Overall highly reccomend!

I have purchased more expensive emulsion remover for reclaiming my screens and this stuff works just as good if not better. I do get a slightly harsher smell but it’s not bad. This quickly softens the emulsion so it can be removed. However avoid screen lock by not allowing the emulsion remover to dry on the screen. I like to wet my screen first then spray with emulsion remover. 30 seconds to a minute later I scrub the screen and all emulsion comes off.
