Union Ink PRPE1080 EF TRUTONE Fine White Instructions:
Stencils: For optimum results use solvent resistant dualcure emulsions. Do not use water-resistant or one-part photopolymer emulsions. Underexposed stencils may break down during printing or cause a chemical reaction between the ink and emulsion resulting in a clogged screen mesh that will be difficult and sometimes impossible to reclaim.
Additives: Tru-Tone plastisol inks are supplied ready to print. Any modification to these inks can have an adverse effect on their performance.. If necessary, reduce with small amounts of Reducer/Detackifier (PLRE9000). Tru-Tone Halftone Base (PRPE9080) can be used when or if necessary to reduce colour concentrations.
Printing: For best results Tru-Tone inks should be printed on white fabrics. The colour values will be altered if printed on dyed fabrics.
Curing Instructions: Tru-Tone inks will fully cure when the entire thickness of the ink deposit reaches 300°F (149°C).
