Six products were selected from the lab CleanerSolutions database based on ink removal from metal parts. These products were then applied to individual provided saw blades using a squeeze bulb. About one milliliter was applied to the surface. Solutions were left on the surface and checked at five-minute intervals up to 30 minutes to see if any ink could be wiped from the surface. 

Several of the selected products showed positive removal of ink from the surface in the 30 minute room temperature tests. 

Product Observations
SC Supersolv Removed some of the blue and yellow ink and grime (grey film)
DS 108 Removed blue
Soyclear 1500 Removed yellow and some grime
Citrus Burst 8 Removed less the DS108 but less than sec-butyl acetate
Bitu Ox Bio NT Low amount of white ink removed
Solvent Blend 1 85%D-limonene; 15% dimethyl gluterate Letters disappearing and removed grime
Solvent Blend 2 60% D-limonene; 31% Benzyl Benzoate; 9% dimethyl gluterate Ink removed down to base metal. Top performer
Ektapro EEP Some yellow and grime removed
Sec-butyl acetate Removed blue - more than DS 108

The effective products will be tested in a follow-up experiment where parts will be partially immersed in the surface to determine how long it would take to remove ink from saw blade.
