XANTÉ Myriad 2 plate cleaner. Prepare plates as follows:
1.
Shake plate cleaner well.
2.
Place the plate on a clean, smooth surface.
3.
Spray the cleaning solution directly on the plate, keeping the
spray nozzle approximately 10 to 12 inches from the surface.
4.
Wipe plate with even, moderate pressure to coat completely.
5.
Rinse the plate with water or fountain solution.
To clean a plate on the printing press, use the following steps:

2.

3.
Spray the cleaning solution onto a 4 x 4 inch cotton square.
4.
Wipe plate with even, moderate pressure to coat completely.
5.

After the Myriad 2 plate is imaged and cleaned, begin printing
according to the press manufacturer’s instructions. If you experience

information in Chapter 11.
