I run a 20 unit goss and if we need to change a plate most times it never fits with the rest, so we output them all and change them all! It may have something to do with the output on the ctp. Although sometimes a one plate change will work but not always.Great thread by the way, I thought it...

If its chemical ghost, you need to get air into it before it happens.Not sure what your job looks like so . Lots of time with a chemical ghost if this is what you have, you can lay a varnish over it, air it within a hour or so very gently......send her back for spot, air again. The key is air here.

If your on a heidelberg and you are running a metallic, why would you just not back off your z roller? Thats what its there for!

alcohol makes the water wetter, the higher it is , the easier it is no matter what anyone tells you!..........15 to 17% with a good ink and all your troubles will fade away!

Not sure what ink you are useing , or paper..... but if you wash your blankets and it gos away, then its not chemical ghost.....if your water is low, next , reduce your ink you may have to much tack! Try a gel reducer in your ink for a trial.
