Details:
Print metallic inks with ease by using the correct mesh screen. There is no need for any underbase with this product. Simply print 2 hits of ink and you are good to go for each color. If you are printing multiple inks, then flash the metallic ink at 220°F (105°C) for 3 – 5 seconds prior to printing your next color. The metallics reflective attribute may elongate the flash time depending on flash unit. Make sure to test prior to full production. Also, please note that while this is a low cure ink the metallic attribute needs to be taken into account when curing as metallic finishes can reflect heat, so make sure the ink is fully cured through testing prior to production.

We suggest a 110 mesh screen for the Metallic Series of inks.
