    alright .. how do you clean the mixer?? do you dip it in some kind of solution and leave it overnight ? how can you tell the difference between the white plastisol ink and the water based white ink if the label does not say?
    I am still kind of experimenting here and today the white ink really ruined my work.. it was super thick and I was using a 230 mesh .. I dont have a 110 or similar screen count .. only 230. is there a way to make it thinner with any household items?
    thanks man.

      You want curable reducer to help thin the ink :) and of course any plastisol remover or high pressure sprayer will easily clean mixers
