To the experts:
I currently switched over to Ulano's qx-1 emulsion. I'm using the ER-80 emulsion remover from Pro Chemicals. I noticed for a majority of my screeens, it took the emulsion out, with some elbow grease and alot of water pressure.
Now my issue is, I've got 3 screens that have about 30 percent of the emulsion still in the screen. My screens are 173 mesh. I can't seem to get the rest of the emulsion out, even after 4 passes of spraying and scrubbing the screens. It almost looks like its locked in the screen or hazed.
I know the typical solution is to just get the screens restreched. However, before I do so, I wanted to make sure it wasn't any other variables or combinations of some sort.
Is the ER-80 suitable for removing Ulano QX-1 emulsion?
Could this just be an issue of the ER-80 becoming destabilized (if that's even possible)?
My ER-80 came as a concentrate, and I mixed it as advised on the label... and when I ran into this issue, I pretty much poured the rest of the concentration in the bottle resulting in a 50/50 mix with water, hoping that would help. It's turned yellow. Is that any sign of expiration?
Thanks in advanced
