Allrepparttar 102839 masking tape is pulled offrepparttar 102840 screen andrepparttar 102841 screen is sprayed with “emulsion remover.” This chemical is left onrepparttar 102842 screen for 2 or 3 minutes and a high pressure sprayer or even a garden hose can be used to wash awayrepparttar 102843 emulsion.
