Properties and directions for use
Properties. Acidic emulsion, free of chlorinated solvents, with slow evaporation and a flash point above 62 °C. Miscible with water for easy, residue-free removal. Contains a mild abrasive for greater cleaning power; does not damage the printing press and is economical in use.
Directions for use. Shake before use. Apply as supplied with a cloth, sponge or similar, then rinse with water.
The emulsion may separate during prolonged storage. This does not indicate loss of performance: vigorous shaking restores its usual condition.
