Learn More About Mesh Degreasers

Why Degreasing Screen Mesh Is Important

Proper mesh degreasing is an important step in screen preparation before coating screens with emulsion. Oils, dust, residue, and other contaminants left on the mesh can interfere with emulsion adhesion and may lead to pinholes, fisheyes, or stencil breakdown.

Mesh degreasers help clean the screen surface and improve stencil consistency during exposure and printing.

When to Use Mesh Degreasers

Mesh degreasers are commonly used before coating screens with emulsion, after reclaiming screens, when preparing new mesh, and as part of a regular screen preparation workflow.

Many printers degrease screens after reclaiming to remove residual contaminants before recoating the mesh.

Mesh Degreasers and Screen Reclaiming

After reclaiming screens with emulsion removers and screen wash products, mesh degreasers help prepare the mesh for proper emulsion adhesion.

Proper screen preparation helps improve exposure consistency and reduce stencil defects during printing.

Choosing the Right Mesh Degreaser

Different mesh degreasers vary in strength, concentration, and application method. Some are designed for manual screen cleaning, while others may be used as part of a larger reclaiming process.

Selecting the proper degreaser depends on your reclaiming workflow, production volume, and screen preparation needs.
