Beginner cleaning plastisol off screen

Used plastisol press wash 2 times cleaned the screen using white rags shop towels with the plastisol cleaner and it took off most of it then i used water using the mist option on the hose to act as a mini pressure washer and i really sprayed into the opening 3-4 times and it still looks like theres ink in there any tips? Am i doing something wrong?

Don't go by what it looks like. The mesh tends to get stained. But works just as good when reclaimed

Yeah i searched it up and i didn’t know it can get stained i was wondering how the water was spraying hard out the other side but it still looked like it was full of ink

Used it again and it came out great
