PREPARATION:
Mix and strongly dilute the ink by using the PLA thinner in the measure of max.
10-20%.
When printing fine details or screened images (e.g. 80/ 120 lines per cm) in warm
environments, we recommend you add the PLD retardant in a minimum percentage.
CAUTION!
Excessive dilution generates a loss of the covering power, smudges and an imperfect
detachment of the ink from the pad.
An insufficient dilution causes problems of drawing the ink from the cliché,
printing repeatability and dripping of the ink with a consequent decline of the
printing quality.
DRYING AND HARDENING
The drying time lasts between 2 and 3 minutes at an ambient temperature of about
20°C.
If you would like it to dry in only a few seconds, you can use hot air circulation
ovens (60-80 b °C) or high temperature spot devices (air or infrared rays)
that can be installed on the piece feeding systems (e.g. rotary tables, conveyors,
etc.).
The ink is completely hardened after 24 hours.
COLOUR RANGE:
Consult the COMEC colour chart of glossy hues that includes a selection of 24
standard colours plus 3 threecolour shades.
All of the colour shades can be mixed with each other.
