PRINTING TIPS

• Use 6% Aquarius™ Discharge activator ZF. Mix well and leave for 10 minutes to dissolve. Remix immediately prior to adding to the screen. Once activated inks colors should be used within 8 hours to prevent any color change issues. To prevent wastage only activate a small amount of color at a time.
• Use with 100% Cotton Dischargeable fabrics.
• White can be used as stand alone white, as an underbase for plastisol colors or as a highlight white
• Colors should be made in accordance with Aquarius™ IMS Pantone® mixing system with a maximum of 6% pigment loading to ensure crock performance is maintained.
• Use 86-230T/34 (34-90T) mesh for best performance and color brightness
• Avoid the use of flash cures. Print discharge colors dark to light, wet on wet. Print Aquarius™ Bright Discharge White in the last position.
• Prints should be cured at 330o F/165o C for 90 seconds. Check the cure temperature at the ink surface.

Due to raw material limitations Avient is currently offering a reformulated version of the Zodiac™ Aquarius™ discharge product line.  When printing base or white discharge direct to fabric variances in opacity and brightness can be noticed – see attached documentation as to how to achieve results consistent with the previous Zodiac™ Aquarius™ Discharge products.  When making colors, Pantone® accuracy remains the same as the previous version.
