1) tank 1: 50/50 water and  CCI IW107

2) rinse

3) tank 2: Gem-zyme

4)powerwash

5) compressed air

6) rack it up.

i'll time the next round of screens and compare.

Just to be clear you are NOT degreasing the screens at the end?

nope.

for an informal study I'm doing on degreasing vs not-degreasing...

is your water city or well?

are you filtering your water? (if so, how many micron filter)?

do you have a water softener?

we were on a well (softener and water filter) at our home shop and rarely had problems when not degreasing.

when we moved to our commercial location, we started having tons of problems with fish eyes and water marks... once we started degreasing all the problems went away.

I attribute it to the water here, but don't know as we changed SO many other variables during the move.

we used to degrease with simple green or greased lightning, haven't noticed a bit of difference. City water, no additives. no filters.

Awesome. Thanks, I am going to implement this. This would make a huge difference for us.

I suggest that you try this first with only a couple of screens as, has been pointed out, it does not seem to work for everyone.

That rug really tied the room together, did it not?

Absolutely. I've learned my lesson and test and retest everything
