As more parts are cleaned, the IPA gradually becomes more 
concentrated with liquid resin, reducing the effectiveness of Form 
Wash. As IPA evaporates, add fresh IPA to keep the fill level between 
the minimum and maximum lines. Use the hydrometer to check the 
IPA resin concentration between cleaning cycles, and replace IPA  
as needed for the cleanest parts.

As the IPA resin concentration increases, the weight will float higher, 
and the stem and O-ring will rise. For a smooth, dry surface finish, 
replace IPA when the O-ring rises above the float’s tall wings.

Checking IPA Resin Concentration

To check whether the IPA is suitable for cleaning parts, lower  
the mount, open the outer lid, and float the previously calibrated 
hydrometer in the wash bucket. Note the alignment of the O-ring 
relative to the float’s wings. 

MAINTENANCE

Change IPA if O-ring 
is above tall wings.

CAUTION: 

Wear gloves when handling parts  

and surfaces with IPA or uncured resin.
