HOW
CLEAN DO YOU WANT TO GET IT?
The most difficult question to
answer is “how clean do you want the substrate to be.” For one
application, “as clean as possible” may mean removing particulate
matter no smaller than 10 mills (250 microns). In another application,
this particle size may represent a boulder. For reference, a 40
to 50 micron (2 mills) particle is at the lower end of the visible
scale.
