Cody,
Get a pressure washer.
I do all of mine like that.
I am not sure how it will work on cord stretced screens.

I love it, clean and ready to use in just a few minutes.

you can also take it to a car wash (self serve) and use their power washer. That's what I do. Works perfectly. gets all emulsion and dried up ink out of the screen totally.
