• Textile ink with high elasticity and fastness.
• Ideal for personalising dark and light garments such as polo shirts, sweatshirts, backpacks, caps, and bags.
• It offers good resistance against the cracking effect that appears when the area covered by the dry ink is bent.
• It penetrates and blends with the fabric, allowing it to permeate and thus allowing the garment to breathe.
• It comes ready to use without the need for additional products. Just stir with a spatula and apply with a Shore 60-65A squeegee.
• Bonds to the garment when cured.
• Suitable for meshes between 32 and 55 threads per centimetre. You can mix it with the Acuaprint 120EF clear base to create a semi-opaque ink that you can apply on high weft meshes (120 threads per centimetre).
  
• Soft feel. It blends directly into the fabric and feels like a part of it.
• Good fastness to washing and stretching.

THINGS TO KEEP IN MIND

• Although they provide good coverage, we recommend printing the colours on top of a white underbase when working with dark garments. This way, the colour of the t-shirt won’t interfere with the print.
• Testing is recommended to ensure that the results and settings are what you are looking for.

RECOMMENDATIONS FOR STORAGE AND HANDLING

• Store in a cool place, temperature below 32ºC, away from direct or indirect heat sources.
• Moisten the mesh to prevent clogging in high-temperature conditions.
• Add 10-20% of Acuaprint 120EF per kilo of white to help keep the screen dry longer.
• Keep the container closed.
• After air drying, apply heat to ensure that the ink adheres perfectly to the fabric.
