Usage of Wash on the plate is not recommend as the washes
attack the image areas and make them non receptive of
the printing ink. We call this as plate binding. The
blanket wash is having certain solvents, which react with
the plate image areas. To solve this problem I recommend
that after the usage of blanket wash pls. wet-wash the
blanket cylinder with a swab of sponge wet with water. This
will completely remove the wash and so avoid plate
cancellation.
Please use plate care products The ideal product to
clean un-baked plate is Nova Plate cleaner GP. This is
available with any of our retail outlets.
