Description
When Standard Degradents Aren’t Fast Enough
High-volume shops can’t afford slow ink removal. ICC 8270’s concentrated formula is engineered for speed — reducing dwell time and scrubbing effort compared to economy-tier alternatives. Non-caustic chemistry means it’s aggressive on ink without being aggressive on screens, mesh, or operator safety.
Fast-Action Formula
Shorter dwell time and less scrubbing effort than economy degradents, translating to faster screen turnaround in high-volume operations.
Non-Caustic Chemistry
Removes ink aggressively without caustic pH levels that can irritate skin, damage frames, or create regulated waste disposal requirements.
Heavy Buildup Removal
Handles heavy plastisol deposits — dried ink, press buildup, and multi-layer ink deposits that economy products struggle with.
Concentrated Value
The 5-gallon pail format is optimized for professional shop use where volume matters and cost-per-use economics are important.

High-Volume Production
Premium degradent performance makes sense when cleanup speed directly affects job output. Faster screen turns = more jobs per day.
Difficult Ink Removal
For stubborn cases — dried ink, heavy buildup, or inks on screens for extended periods — 8270 provides the extra cleaning power standard products lack.
Press Equipment Cleanup
Effective on press platens, flood bar housings, squeegee holders, and other press parts where ink builds up over time.
