Quality plates need quality solvents
For users of washout solvents that carry out in house reclamation of the solvent, C.K.Chemicals provides a free lab testing service to monitor the continuing quality and balance of the solvent. A test report and solvent control advice will be supplied. It is recommended that this facility is utilised and samples submitted approx every 10 reclamation cycles, or once every 4-6 weeks. |
