Hi,
Water and mercury is very strong surface tension. Alcohol, soapy
water etc least. But I have good success with water when cleaning
up built up curds on HP and canon carts that wasn't clogged up *and*
cleaning stations, weird.
Tools used: diposeable blue wipe due to no lints, cotton swabs,
watch for any stray bits! With any cleaning agents discussed here.
But THIS simple mechanical cleaning doesn't work too well on plugged
up carts. That's why I thought of ultrasonics and effective fluid
like 409 or something else.
This is why I wanted to see your war stories here with effective
methods to combat those problems.
