Speedball Diazo Photo Emulsion Remover, 32-Ounces

had worked as advertised for me.

works perfectly for cleaning screens

I use this to remove Ecotex PWR emulsion. Works great. Removes all the emulsion with minimal effort.

I love this stuff and will buy it again (and again), but it is HOBBY grade. I do silk-screening on my kitchen counter several times per year, not daily. It does the job for me, Im very satisfied. That being said, my last container arrived LEAKING. See photos (one of the broken seal, the other of residue in the shipping box. This stuff is corrosive, or caustic, or some other adjective like that, so I always store it standing up, but it obviously doesnt ship that way. BEWARE. (Note to shipper, in case you read this: the product apparently dissolves the seal adhesive -- consider enclosing the bottle in a sealed plastic bag.)

It worked perfectly, cleaned my screens in minutes.

Ive used the product before, works great. Only disappointed because it looks like it had leaked out before they packaged and sent it. The package they sent it in was completely dry/no signs of leakage with some other objects in the box. The safety seal to prevent the bottle from leaking had come off in the cap, and it was obvious a considerable amount leaked out of the bottle (check out the level it was at in the picture). And there was residue all over the top of the bottle as well. I wouldnt normally leave a review like this, but this product is pretty expensive and not getting all of the product is kinda important (the amount missing could have cleaned an entire screen for me). Should probably just go to Blick, but my local one doesnt have the bigger bottle in stock right now. Im also not going to bother returning it because its just a pain, but heed this warning! It might be easier to just buy from your local art supplies stores.

Needed it

I hate this product. It came leaking and when I used it on my screen it did NOTHING. That price for such a little amount i expected it to do wonders but it didnt do a THING. I could have bought a new 20x24 aluminum screen for cheaper than this useless garbage. DO NOT BUY THIS. It is a waste of money. I wouldnt purchase again or recommend this product to anyone.

This stuff is not that great - Wash time is much longer, and requires some toothbrush scrubbing. Whereas, a real shop will use Rhino Tech, Saati, or Mel Mel, which works MAGICALLY better than Speedball. Almost no scrubbing, less wear and tear on screens. Seriously, why does Speedball corner this market on Amazon? There are drastically better products, but the retail market is all this low-end Speedball stuff.

This stuff is amazing. I use it to remove my Jacquard emulsion (I no longer use speedball emulsion) and it works a treat. Screen is left good as new every time.
