He is working printing industry and producing cigarattes packaging for Philip morris, BAT etc. They are using Ethyl alcohol and water mixing to dilute varnish which is applied top of the printed area. The operation is tifdruck process and machine is Lemanic.
Does anybody knows that, instead of Ethyl alcohol, What type of solvent can be used to dilete varnish.
There are some restrictions usage of Ethyl alcohol in industries process some Alternative solvent is required.

The big question was whether to use ethyl or methyl alcohol solution.
The fire safety officer and the health and safety officer decided they could handle the fire hazards more easily than the health hazards associated with workers drinking the stuff.
They settled for ethyl alcohol in the mix.
