Directions and Helpful Information:
The Allureglow USA HS-2045 is a Ready to Use Ink, just mix it up and it is ready to use. Mixing should be done with a high speed drill or drill press using a Type 2 Dispersion Blade. Continue to mix Ink occasionally throughout production run.
Keep lids on containers to avoid contamination and drying of the Ink.
Note: You Must Use the AG-CLA100 at an addition rate of 1.5% by weight added to the Ink when printing on Polyesters, Nylon Lycra and Performance Fabrics. This enables you to reduce curing temperatures to 280ºF (138ºC). Wash Tests Must Not Be Done Until 48 Hours After Curing.
Use of a White Underprint is a must on Dark Garments. You will sacrifice Glow Intensity and Longevity by not doing so.
For Best Results A Heavy Flood and Slow to Moderate Squeegee Pressure on Automatic Presses and Heavy Flood and Light to Moderate Squeegee Pressure on Manual Presses is recommended. A Print /Flash/Print Method will achieve the best results
