HarperScientific Customers Find New Use for Re-Leez

CHARLOTTE, N.C.—HarperScientific, the printing and coating supplies division of global anilox supplier Harper Corporation of America, developed UV Re-Leez, a product formulated especially for removing UV ink from narrow web presses, anilox rolls and all equipment, with on-press use in mind.

“But we were thrilled to get reports from customers that they found great success using UV Re-Leez as a solvent ink cleaner for anilox and gravure cylinders in ultrasonic tanks,” said Jim Doedderlein, technical sales specialist for HarperScientific. “We’ve had reports that customers are cleaning press sleeves in ultrasonic tanks and cleaning the between-station dryer assemblies the same way. In a case where the air diverters on the drum side of the dryer were clogged with ink, the customer used UV Re-Leez in the ultrasonic tank to clean them, and the operator called to tell us the dryers looked like new!”
