                          What Are Haze & Stain Removers?

                          Haze removers and stain removers are specialty screen printing chemicals designed to remove ghost images, ink stains, emulsion residue, and discoloration that can remain in mesh after reclaiming screens.

                          These products help improve screen appearance and restore mesh for future printing applications.

                          Ghost Images and Ink Stains

                          Ghost images occur when ink residue or emulsion particles remain trapped in the mesh after reclaiming. Over time, screens may also develop discoloration or staining from inks, pigments, and chemicals used during production.

                          Haze removers are formulated to break down these residues and help restore screen mesh.

                          Choosing the Right Haze Remover

                          Different haze removers vary in strength and application depending on the type of stain or residue being removed. Some products are designed for aggressive stain removal, while others focus on safer or environmentally conscious formulations.

                          Selecting the correct haze remover depends on the mesh condition, ink system, and cleaning process being used.
