Solvent tank/chemical substitution
« on: November 14, 2013, 01:39:37 PM »
We need to re-order for our solvent tank that we use to clean squeegees and floodbars, and i was wondering if i order a barrel of another cleaner, would it work if we swap them out? I'm sure whatever cleaner we get would be more expensive, but i'd really like to not use this really nasty solvent cleaner anymore.

Can you post a photo or link to what you use (setup and chems)?  I'd love to have something I can drop ink scoops, squeegees, etc into for easier and quicker clean up.

Brad's set-up is the shidazzle.  Maybe he'll post some pics. ;) ;) ;) ;)
