PRINTING INSTRUCTIONS:

White or Light Colored Fabrics

Even though Unimatch inks print well through a wide variety of mesh counts, they have been specifically formulated to provide you with the most accurate PANTONE® color reproductions, printability and soft hand when printed through a 230 (92 metric) polyester monofilament mesh. Printing thicker ink deposits through mesh counts coarser than 160 (64 metric) could result in a less than perfect match.

Dark 100% Cotton Fabrics

When printing on dark 100% cotton an underbase should be utilized. Union's Maxopake White PADE-1030, Mixopake Super White MIXE-1000, or Plasticharge White (if the fabric is dischargeable) through mesh counts between 125 and 230 (48-92 metric). Caution: Dyes used in some newer fashion colors may occasionally fade or "ghost" when in contact with low-bleed inks. Dyes causing this problem include pale blue, light green, shades of gray, tan, and lavender, among others. Fading occurs on both cotton/polyester and 100% cotton fabric. This does not seem to occur on standard garment colors such as red, maroon, green, purple, black, etc. To avoid this problem use only underbases recommended for 100% cotton or place a slipsheet between each shirt as they are stacked.

Dark Cotton/Polyester Blend Fabrics

Because of the always present possibility of dye sublimation/migration when printing on cotton/polyester blend fabrics, only low-bleed white underbases should be used on these fabrics. Your best selection in this situation is Union's PLHT-1070 Diamond White. Mesh count recommendations for Diamond White is 125-200 (48-80 metric). Underbases printed through finer meshes may hamper the bleed resistant properties of Diamond White.

DRYING TIME: Inks will fully cure when entire ink layer reaches 300°F. Unimatch will not air-dry in the screen.

TRANSFERS: Even though Unimatch is formulated for direct printing, it will provide good results as a cold peel transfer ink.

SCREEN FABRIC: Unimatch inks are formulated to print through finer mesh counts increasing mileage and reducing ink costs. Inks mixed to Unimatch formulas are designed to reproduce Pantone® colors accurately when printed through 230 mesh For cotton/polyester blends where bleeding may occur, use UPLHT-1070 Fast Flash Low Bleed White printed through 125-200 mesh polyester.

SCREEN COATING, FILM, BLOCKOUT: Use water-soluble, hand-cut photo screens and blockouts with this ink or use other suitable products.

MODIFIERS:Use PTHF-9070 to reduce opacity or soften the hand of the ink. Can be mixed 10-50% by weight depending on the color of the fabric and the desired opacity or softness of the finished print.

REDUCER: Use UPLUE-9000 sparingly (2% or less).

ADHESION: Excellent for most fabrics.

WASHUP: Use SYS-1925 or biodegradable washup SYS-2500, SYS-2550 or SYS-2510 screen wash gel.

ALWAYS TEST PRINT BEFORE PRODUCTION!
