Be careful with this one. If you take the screen out of the faucet it could alter the water flow, so be sure to double check that. You don't want anyone noticing and getting suspicious. Also, the faucet I got my screens from had 4 perfect screens within it. Other faucets might have only one screen. Also, a better method than burning the screen for a while is soaking it in hydrochloric acid for about 5 minutes, then rinsing it in water. If you work with screens a lot, head to your nearest pool maintenance shope and ask for Muriatic Acid. It's the same as hydrochloric, only less potent but still does the job. If you rarely change screens, don't bother with acid. Okay, i might have wandered a tad off topic, hehe.
