BURNISHINE CHROME ROLLER CLEANER/ DESENSITIZER #3462Q REPLACES PRO 10
Pro 10 Chrome Roller Cleaner Desensitizer has been discontinued, and as a result, we highly recommend replacing Pro 10 with Burnishine Chrome Roller Cleaner / Desensitizer #3462Q.
Chrome Roller Cleaner / Desensitizer is a one-step cleaner that you simply wipe on and leave on! It effectively desensitizes chrome so it becomes more water-loving and oleophobic (ink hating). It helps prevent ink from sticking to chrome rollers or traveling through the ink train. CRC increases dampener efficiency and helps prevent oxidation. It can also be used on metering rollers. CRC is suitable for all presses and dampeners and won’t interfere with fountain solutions.
As with all our products, #3462Q is made proudly in the USA.
PRO 3 SM/SILVER MASTER REPLACED WITH.....
Burnishine SM Fountain Solution (#3459) or Pro 3 Universal are perfect replacements for discontinued Pro 3 SM.
