Best LOW VOC MRC??

[David Ingram]

Hello!

Our new State law is forcing us to a Low VOC Metering Roller Cleaner
<100 g/l

I'm noticing several of these new formulations are very high in acetone.
one 90% acetone, has a health rating of 1
another 50% acetone has a health rating of 2
One that uses no acetone with a health rating of 2

For MRC which product have you found to be the most effective at doing its job while keeping the pressman's health in mind. (We clean our presses by hand, they are older)

TYVM for any replies

Acetone is going to be the primary component in any Low VOC MRC. ANything else that cleans as well is listed as a VOC and therefore can't be used in a low VOC product. Although Acetone has an offensive odor, it is actually much safer to breathe than most other solvents. The breathable PPM is very high compared to many other products.

POSCO has a product called US MRC 100 G/L that was specifically designed for the rule that you are trying to comply with.

Mirachem pressroom cleaner. We use it for everything including hand cleaner. 129 g/l just add water to get to where you need to be. Mirachem • The Safe Alternative to Hazardous Chemicals and Cleaners

Water based not the best of cleaners but your lungs and liver will thank you years from now.

San Joaquin Valley APCD Home Page California law has us using it as well. I've used it for at least 20 years doesn't work as well as some of the super cleaners but very little smell 0 flame
