Description
- Container: gallon
- Recommended fabrics: 100% cotton, 50/50 cotton/polyester blends, polyester, non-woven polyporpylene bags
- Application: direct from container without modification
- Additives: if required add 1% to 10% by weight of 1099 low bleed curable reducer, however they impact bleed resistance, opacity,and cure times (complete stir/mix can also be problematic)
- Spot drying with low after flash tack depends on the dwell time of the spot dryer used. To much heat may actually make the ink tacky. The goal is to only partially fuse or gell the surface of the ink. Just dry to the touch without lift off but only partially fused to avoid inter -coat adhesion problems and allow final fusing or curing in the dryer.
- Testing dryer temperature consistency before and during production, and washability on the final production results are also good ideas. On some fabrics bleeding or dye migration may occur or may not occur right away.
- Screen mesh: 60-230 t/in (24-90 t/cm) mono filament
- Emulsion: any direct or indirect emulsion or capillary film in th 35-70 micron range
- Squeegee: 65-75 durometer sharp edge… hand printing will be less tiring because lower squeegee pressure is needed and automatic equipments reduced pressure improves screen life, durability and overall print quality
- Storage: sealed containers in 65-90 F° (18-32 C°) range and avoiding direct sunlight
- Clean-Up: any eco-friendly scren wash
