9700 Series All Purpose Screen Ink is a high gloss, solvent-based screen ink formulated to perform on a wide variety of substrates.
- Substrates styrene, coated paper and card stock, rigid vinyl, synthetic stocks and plastics
- Use direct emulsions and capillary films which are solvent resistant
- When printing 9700 series all purpose screen ink add only enough ink to the screen to be able to print for 5-10 minutes
- Add additional ink in small increments throughout the print run to maintain screen stability
- Thoroughly mix the ink prior to printing
- Improper mixing can lead to inconsistent color and ink performance
- Lower temperatures increase the ink viscosity, impairing flow and increasing film thickness
- Elevated temperatures lower the ink viscosity, reducing print definition and film thickness
- Pretest to determine optimum printing parameters for a particular set of ink, substrate, screen, press, and drying variables/conditions
