Default Product Review: Citra-Paste Ink Wash

I just got a gallon of this new Citra-Paste from SSS.com

These are my opinions, and I'm not affiliated with the manufacturer or SSS.com in ANY way

Ok, so I got my gallon via UPS yesterday, arrived missing about a half to a full cup or so of the product, the bottle leaked during shipping... i blame UPS, cuz they dont give a crap about your packages... the box was dry, but the solvent was in the plastic wrap... (anyone who ordered from SSS.com knows they wrap everything in 4 million feet of plastic wrap)

Anyways, so... I go down to the shop with my new jug of Citra Paste

I follow the instructions on the bottle:
1. card off all ink that you can
2. spray citra-paste on screen and a little on scrub pad
3. give it a little scrub action
4. spray water

now, I must say, i'm really impressed with Citra-Paste, it took VERY LITTLE scrubbing to break the ink down, and it washed away clean...

PROS:
- Works easily without much elbow grease
- Washes out quick

CONS:
- smell gave me a headache after about 3-4 minutes of exposure

So there ya have it... CITRA-PASTE... APP Approved

I give it 4 out of 5 Pixels... lol
