The first granular emulsion remover in the industry. Non-hazardous by classification, avoiding the shipping and storage restrictions that apply to many liquid concentrates.
⚡
Fast 10–30 Second Dwell
Typical dwell time for standard emulsion is just 10–30 seconds, making this one of the fastest-acting emulsion removers in the ICC lineup.
🔍
Non-Caustic & Low VOC
No caustic agents and low VOC levels improve operator safety and air quality in the screen room.
💰
Drain Safe & Eco-Friendly
Designed to meet sewer system and regulatory preferences. Supports responsible wastewater practices.
How to Use
Measure the appropriate amount of ICC 8470 granules and add to water per the dilution ratio on the label. Stir until all granules are fully dissolved.
Remove all ink from the screen before applying emulsion remover for best results.
Apply the prepared solution to both sides of the screen using a brush or scrub pad. Ensure even coverage.
Allow to dwell. For heavily locked areas, increase dwell time and agitate with a scrub pad.
Scrub with a Biggee™ pad or scrub brush, then rinse both sides thoroughly with high-pressure water.
Check for remaining emulsion or ghost images. Repeat if needed.
