Press Control CTP Fountain Solution
Press Control CTP is a one-step alcohol replacement fountain solution designed for all types of presses. The excellent wetting characteristics and special desensitizers in Press Control enable presses to be run at high speeds without any loss of wetting and the subsequent increase in water feeds. Ink feedback and piling are minimized and start-ups are fast and trouble free. Press Control is fully biodegradable and contains added antifoams and corrosion inhibitors.Press Control contains humectants to prevent premature drying of the printing plate during brief shot downs. The fount contains a balanced blend of the appropriate acid/salt combination providing 

a stable pH in all waters with little or no drift.

Advantages:

- Safe on all plates, for use on conventional, CtP, Violet, and polyester plates

- For use on sheet-fed and webs

- Phosphate free formula for heat-set webs

- Use as a fountain solution and alcohol replacement

- Creates good wetting and viscosity on the plate
