    Default Smelly Shop, Neighbor complaining

    How can I cut down on the fumes in my shop. We print mostly T-Shirts and use Lacquer Thinner and Xylene to clean ink from our screens and other clean up. Our neighbor is complaining about the smell. I just am so used to it it doesn't bother me. What other chemicals can be use to cut down on the fumes?

    yeah, get milder cleaning solvents. you're t-shirt printing, that stuff is easy on easy off when it comes to cleaning, franmar, ICC, these companies will save your relatio0nship with your neighbor, save what's left of your brains and kick ink in the dos hole.

    Buy some eco stuff...it works better & it won't make you retarded..as fast as xylene will. It smells like oranges.
