AlbaChem® 1632 Water-Based Screen Opener – Fast, Safe & Residue-Free Screen Clearing

Ever had your print grind to a halt halfway through a run because your mesh clogged with dried-in ink?
It’s one of the most frustrating (and costly) slow-downs on press — lost time, wasted ink, uneven prints, and frustrated operators. Traditional solvent openers can blast through blockages but often leave behind oily films that ruin your next pull or damage water-based stencils.
