Rutland Chino Base

Gallon Size.  Rutland ES0250 Chino Base allows you to produce extremely soft Sepia Tone or Tone-on-Tone prints.  It can be colored to your specifications by mixing up to 30% EB Color Concentrates with 70% Chino Base.  Print Chino Base as a stand alone on dark garments to produce that “Tone-on-Tone” look with a very soft hand.

A variety of subdued looks can be printed with this new product.  Prints through very high mesh counts for minimum ink usage.  Create that “worn and washed” look that your customers are asking about.  Chino Base can be used as a curable reducer for plastisol applications.

Features:

• Easy to mix and print.
• Excellent printability with no viscosity modifications.
• Extremely soft and supple to the touch with less hand than most water base inks.
• Create that “worn and washed” look.
• Chino Base can be used as a curable reducer for non-phthalate plastisol applications.

Instructions:
Prints through very fine screen mesh of 305 mc in (120 mc cm).  Chino Base will have excellent wash and wear qualities when cured at 320ºF (160ºC.). Create many colors by adding up to 30% EB Color Concentrates.  Use the Rutland M2007 Software for thousands of formulas.
