Application Guidelines
Crucial Surface Treatment
PP and PE must be flame or corona-treated to achieve a surface tension of ≥ 40 dynes/cm². For PP, a chemical primer/treatment solution can also be used.
Proper Ink Preparation
Stir well before use. Add 5-8% UV-SL thinner if the viscosity is too high. Avoid over-thinning to prevent incomplete UV curing.
Screen & Squeegee Setup
Use 420 mesh/inch (or finer) screens and ≥75° hard PU squeegees. Thick ink films will block UV light and ruin bottom-layer adhesion.
Enhancing Water Resistance
Add 5-8% B-5 hardener for extreme water resistance (optimal after 7 days). Mixed ink must be consumed within 8 hours.
Multi-Layer Strategy
Reduce UV lamp intensity for the first color layers to prevent over-curing, ensuring the subsequent layers bond perfectly.
Metallic & Pearl Mixing
Mix 901 Gold Varnish with ~10% metallic powder (≥1200 mesh) + 2% SD-Dot Paste to prevent sedimentation. Use within one week.
