Less expensive than other compounds

Follow purging steps like this:

    - Disengage barrel from manifold / hot runner

    - Empty hopper of resin

    - Empty barrel by cycling machine 2 or 3 times w/ max shot size

    - Extrude remaining resin until screw can be seen

    - Fill hopper with enough Purgex blend to fill barrel plus a little extra

    - Run shots until purge is at nozzle

    - Soak 5-8 min. (any longer than this is for the most part a waste of time)

    - Cycle machine with NORMAL shot size

    - If clean white extrudite is not obtained, repeat process (first time this is normal)

    - Engage barrel nozzle into manifold / hot runner

    - If present, turn off coolant water on nozzle heater inside manifold

    - Run 1/3 short shot

    - Soak for 5 minutes

    - Repeat until clean purge compound appears
