Trial #5
To evaluate more products for paint and ink removal from supplied parts.
The products were all heated to 150 F in a 40 kHz Branson 3510 ultrasonic tank. One golf ball was cleaned at each temperature for 40 minutes. At ten minute intervals of the cleaning, the ball was rinsed in a tap water spray for 15 seconds at 120 F and wiped dry with a paper towel. Observations were made and compared to the client's current cleaner.

No real change observed

Green Floor 25% Surface changing, paint coming up, ink could be partial removed.
Green Floor 100% Worked well. Within 10 minutes, the ink was being removed. After 40 minutes, most of the paint and ink could be removed. Still not complete.
The Pioneer Eclipse Floor stripper at full strength has had the best results so far. However, the removal of the paint and ink has not equaled the current solvent.
