I need a good ECO material for cleaning plastisol on the screen
Any recommendations?

For on press wash we've used Franmar's Color Change for probably 10yrs now. Soy based. You do need to "rinse" it with a damp rag as it's oily. Very effective, goes a long way and doesn't weaken the emulsion.

CCI has an Enviro Line that is Soy and Citrus Based:

Kiwo also has a stronger concentrated system that is diluted with water that works great:

Good luck!

We like ICC Chemical Spray and Wipe stuff, one is slowish drying, and a second that is must faster, depending on what you need.

Gotta say, this stuff is great for on press ink changes, or even if you need to rack screens for a few days or what ever and want to clean the ink out of the image area. Dries really fast, leaves no oily residue, doesn't stink. I just put a spray nozzle from a Zep spray bottle on it, set it for mist and just a tiny squirt does wonders and it's specially formulated to be as eco as you can get with plastisol. I was just told yesterday the new formula will be stronger, smell even better and be a nice little reduction in pricing.
