General Recommendations

Do not mix this line of inks with any product not recommended in the previous point (AUXILIARIES).

Curing

The cure rate depends on the following factors, lamp status, film thickness and color. Check these points before adding curing accelerator.

Pre-Print Test

Check the characteristics of the substrates before use, checking the adhesion of the ink.

Curing Deficiencies

If you get poor curing with any of the colours, shown through wet film or loss of brightness, it is usually due to an excessive ink tank. To correct this, factors such as mesh, squeegees, color density, band speed or amount of UV energy must be modified.

Storage

Store in a place protected from light and in black polyethylene containers, because exposure to light causes the polymerization of the ink.

The containers should be closed very well, and immediately after using the inks. To maximize shelf life, the storage temperature should be 10 ° C to 25 ° C (50 ° F - 77 ° F). The stability of the ink is one year, fulfilling the mentioned requirements.

Safety

Contact with skin causes irritation, in this case wash with plenty of soap and water.
Wear gloves and eye protection.
Change contaminated clothing and consult a physician.
