USES: For use on cottons, cotton/polyester blends, can be used on cold peel transfers, and on nylon jackets (with Nylon Bonding Agent).
FINISH: Cures to a soft-hand finish.
OPACITY: Good opacity.
DRYING TIME: 500 Series plastisol inks will not air dry. They must be heat cured. 533 Series inks will fully cure and withstand repeated washings when the entire ink deposit reaches 310°F. Curing can be accomplished with the use of a conveyor dryer, flash curing unit, or simple infrared heater. Will semi-cure or gel at 250°F for transfers.
SCREEN FABRIC: Use 40-305 monofilament polyester depending on the substrate for direct prints, 80-125 mesh for transfers.
SCREEN COATING, FILM, BLOCKOUT: Use water soluble hand-cut, photo screens and blockouts with this ink or use other suitable products.
MODIFIERS: Use small amounts of 502 reducer to achieve the look of a water based print. Any amount of 501 curable reducer can be used to reduce opacity and soften hand.
TRANSFERS: Transfert 75 paper is recommended. For increased durability, use adhesive powder or print 841 or 842 adhesive over the entire transfer. Set transfer press for medium pressure for 10-15 seconds at 350°F. Peel cold.
WASHUP: T-125 mineral spirits, or biodegradable washes SYS-2500, SYS-2550 or SYS-2510 screen wash gel.
