Default Killed My Dip Tank

Added too much of some solvent- was trying to get more ink to dissolve away. That last little tweak cost me, I have to buy 10 gallons of one-step solution and start over. Oh well back to the lab.

The chemicals reacted.... Badly, now the stuff won't dissolve the emulsion or ink.
