Sonora X Plates

[HeidiL]

Has anyone come up with a good solution to make the tag at the bottom of the Sonora plate more readable.?
It fades away quickly once the plates are bent and waiting be put on the press.

Did you try lemon juice? If rubbed two/three times it should become intense blue colored

When we were doing this, we used Windex with Vinegar. It works well.

Interesting, so a simple way would be to line up the plates and lightly rub the edge of the plates where the tag is and let them dry before we wrap up the plates to deliver them to the pressroom?
