Nylon Transfer Powder
Permanent adhesion of plastisol heat transfers
ULON-2027 multi-purpose Transfer Adherent Powder provides permanent adhesion
to nylon, polyester and other synthetics. These powders are simply sprinkled
on the transfer after printing. Once fused, the treated transfer can be
applied to the fabric or garment; positive bonding results. ULON-2027 will
not cause discoloration or shrinkage. Transfer remains permanently bonded
under normal washing and drying conditions. Sold by the pound

NYLO BOND
Strengthens adhesion of Plastisol inks to nylon
Nylon bonding agents are additives which, when mixed with plastisol colors,
provide adhesion to water proofed nylon jackets and other garments. Simply
add 10-15% to the plastisol (by weight). To obtain a 10% addition, the
following is recommended:
To one quart white, add 6 oz Bonding Agent
To one quart color, add 4 oz. Bonding Agent
For more effective bonding on more highly water-proofed garments, use 15%:
To one quart white, add 9 oz. Bonding Agent
To one quart color, add 6 oz. Bonding Agent
Less than 10% may prevent adhesion or abrasion resistance. More than 15%
Nylobond may diminish opacity and shorten shelf life. Working life for
10% mixture is 8 to 16 hours. A 15% mixture is 6 to 8 hours.
*Always test on actual substrate before printing.

FOIL
Metallic Transfer Foils
Brilliant, high gloss metallic foils specially selected for application to T-Shirts
and other textiles using a heat transfer press. Unifoil will adhere to most plastisols;
however, adhesion, flexibility, abrasion resistance, and washability can be increased
by the addition of Ulon Transfer Powder. 10 to 15% Ulon Powder mixed with the
plastisol will increases Unifoil longevity. For application, cut foil to desired
size and shape. Place it color side up on the area to be "foiled".
Heat the transfer press to 325 to 350¾ F with pressure set at medium to high
for 10 -15 seconds for applying to a direct print. Allow the foil and fabric
to completely cool before peeling. For best results the color of the plastisol
being "foiled" should be black or the complimentary color of the foil.
This will help mask tarnishing and chipping as the foil wears. Prints decorated
with foil are not as durable as an undecorated print, and should not be expected
to withstand the punishment that a regular direct print or transfer can take.
Some dulling of the foil should be expected. Garments should be hand washed using
cool to lukewarm water and hung to dry.

Build-Up Buster
When added to plastisol inks, Build-Up Buster dramatically reduces the amount
of ink that adheres to the bottom of the screen. This build up can lead to undesirable
smearing while wet on wet printing. Add Build-Up Buster should be added in a
2 to 5% ratio by weight. Build-Up Buster can evaporate out of mixed inks, therefore
inks should be covered with a tight lid for storage. Available in quarts and
gallons.

Plastisol Thickener
This easy to use additive is designed to help the printer that has added too
much reducer and would like to bring back the viscosity. Plastisol Thickener
can be easily stirred in by hand, avoiding the mess of powder type thickeners.
Should be added 1 to 5% by weight to ink. Available in quarts and gallons.
