Description
Applied Chemistries Activator - SilverMaster® Compatible - 12 qt/case (3 gallons)
Price above is for 1 full case of 12 quarts!
Compatible Replacement for Mitsubishi OEM SilverMaster® chemistry.
NO HAZMAT SHIPPING FEES!
Quarts eliminates hazardous shipping charges on the activator due to the reduced size and packing group. The standard Mitsubishi activator is 4 gallons, and a $50 hazardous shipping fee is applied by UPS or FedEx to every shipment. This product saves you tremendously on every order!

Complete Your System
To achieve the best results and maximum plate life, professional prepress technicians recommend using the full system of matched chemistry. Before checking out, ensure you have the necessary components for your silver halide plate processor and offset press:
For the Processor: Don’t forget to order your Applied Chemistries Stabilizer, specifically formulated to work in tandem with your activator for high-contrast, long-run plates.
For the Press: We highly recommend "Pink 3" Fountain Solution, a universal solution designed to keep your backgrounds clean and your colors vibrant.
