Not as good as legit emulsion remover, plus who wants to sit around and soak and scrub in a tub full of bleach . . .

Yea, I'd spring the $16 for a gallon of some legit emulsion remover, i've heard they even make some soy based stuff (bleach seems like a bad idea for anything unless you want to stone wash a jean jacket or something).

yea i finally went to my local triangle ink dealer and got a gallon of good emulsion remover and it was 14.00, so that was well worth it.

check this out.

Kiwo 20:1 concentrate . . . $90.00 per gallon. Make 20 gallons of emulsion remover. We do dozens of screens a day, and I am still only halfway through a bottle from last year.

that and is it even legal to pour a gallon of bleach down the drain?

Depends on the emulsion. Some types bleach is the ticket, but as suggested, a commercial brand is better for most.
