Recommended Support Removal Techniques:Break away excess support material that’s easily accessible. This reduces dissolution time (more support material = a longer time to dissolve).Submerge the part in warm water. Hot tap water is typically 38-49°C, which is more than adequate for dissolving AquaTek™ PVA. Please be safe with hot water!Agitating and stirring the water reduces dissolution time further, either with mechanical agitation or a sonic cleaning bath system. Re-heat or replace the warm water as it cools off for as long as you still see support material un-dissolved.Residue is ecologically safe and can be disposed of down a home or office drain. Rinse thoroughly with fresh, warm water.
