TIPS FOR PRINTING
- Stir inks before printing
- Use consistent, high-tensioned screen mesh to optimize performance properties
- Print in last position or flash after each print if using multiple screens
- Print direct to fabric or over a flashed-dried base plate. Use a suitable underbase when printing on garments prone to bleed
- Tintable with plastisol colorants. See Pigment Loading section for suggested tinting percentages. Adjust the % colorant added based on the strength of the colorants and color saturation desired
- Metallics reflect infrared heat and a forced air dryer is recommended for curing. If using an electric oven, extend dwell time to achieve proper cure
- Curing is a time and temperature process, a lower oven temperature setting with a slower belt speed while maintaining recommended ink cure temperature is always best to protect fabric, control dye migration and reduce energy consumption
- INFINITE FX SHIMMERS can be cured between 270°F-320°F (132°C-160°C)
- Can be mixed with other Infinite FX HD bases or clears
- For cold-peel transfers, use a coated release paper or polyester film. Print using 70 duro squeegee and recommended mesh counts followed by adhesive. Gel at 212°F (100°C) for 60 sec. Apply transfer with heat press at 300°F (150°C) for 10-12 sec at medium pressure. For transfers on polyester, back with a low bleed white and/or blocker. Verify process.
