Bill, It is my understanding that in using the Smart Sonic to clean Adhesives from stencils and mis-printed boards it is recommended to have the system up to a certain heated temperature. What is that recommended temperature? Does this temperature

Sounds like you received some good advice. Most of our stencils are used once a day [at most], so more often than not they are air dried. If we goof-up and need to reuse a stencil during a day when we have limited drying capacity, we wipe the lowes
