Premium cleaning for the textile and graphics screen printer.CPS®Minimize™ M8 is part of the CPS Green Screen range and is a ready to use emulsifiable ink cleaner for automatic and manual screen cleaning. The CPS®Minimize™ concept from CPS is to minimize the impact of solvents and consumables used for ink cleaning on the environment.

CPS®Minimize™ M8 is used after printing when the screen is going to be reclaimed. Designed for automatic cleaning machines, manual use and recirculation units. For best performance in manual use, it should be applied with a blue CPS® Brush.

Many screen printers continue to use solvent soaked tissues or cleaning cloths to clean screens at the end of the print run. This process is less efficient, more expensive, andgenerates more waste than the CPS® concept of using water miscible screen washes.

CPS endorses best industry practice that operators shouldwear appropriate personal protective equipment (PPE)when handling all chemical products, even those classifiedas 'non-hazardous’. Recommended PPE for CPSCPS®Minimize™ M8 includes gloves and safety glasses (orgoggles when handling larger quantities).

CPS endorses best industry practice and manual handlingof 25 and 210 litre containers should be risk assessed andsuitable controls put in place. Use of mechanical handlingequipment may be necessary.
