Curing
Gel/Flash cure: 155 F. (68 C.) Due to differences in power, height above ink film and efficiency of flash unit, a specific dwell time for flashing cannot be given.

Full Cure: 300 F. (149 C.) Failure to cure ink properly causes poor washfastness and unacceptable adhesion.

Modifiers
None. This product should be used straight out of the container

Wash Up
Conventional solvents or Bio-degradable Chemicals.

Wilflex One-Step Nylon Plastisol Ink

Wilflex One-Step Nylon Ink was formulated to address problems that have plagued nylon printers for many years. There are NO waste considerations. Being a non-catalyzed plastisol, it either goes onto a garment or BACK INTO THE CONTAINER- It has low gel and cure temperatures to accommodate heat sensitive fabrics, It flashes quickly and adheres well on untreated nylon fabrics.

Recommmended Substrates
Any nylon fabric - ranging from coarse deniers used in back packs and luggage to the fine deniers used in umbrellas. One-Step Nylon should not be used on water proofed Satin jackets without the addition of a catalyst. Ink will adhere to 100% polyester fabric, but pre-printing and testing for bleeding are necessary to determine this, and whether an acetone wash allows adhesion to occur. Some bonded fabrics have a glue that causes bubbles during the curing process (or long term flashing). These fabrics must be tested to determine fusion parameters.

Printing Recommendations
Mesh
110-186 threads/in (43-73 threads/cm) for whites
200-305 threads/in (79-120 threads/cm) for colors

Squeegee 60 to 90 Durometer, straight edge blade.

Emulsion Conventional direct or capillary films.
Caution: Special pigments are required to manufacture One-Step Nylon fluorescent colors. Do not trap or overprint on top of fluorescent colors.
