Additives Maxopake inks are supplied ready to print. If necessary to reduce viscosity, use up to 15% by weight, of Reducer/Detackifi er (PLRE-9000). For printing transfers, mix Maxopake with with 5-10% Hot Split Additive (PLUE-9040).
Printing Instructions Multiple strokes may be required when printing by hand. When printing with automatic presses use a slightly rounded squeegee to print a thicker ink layer. A soft pad on the printing pallet will minimize penetration into the garment and improve opacity.
Curing Instructions These inks will fully cure when the entire thickness of the ink deposit reaches 300°F (149°C).
Using Low-Bleed Inks The Maxopake series includes two low-bleed colors: Low-Bleed Medium Yellow (PADE-2060), and Low-Bleed Golden Yellow (PADE-2048). The lowbleed inks are recommended for printing on cotton/polyester garments to control the problem of dyes in the polyester fibers migrating or bleeding into the plastisol ink. Low-bleed inks are not recommended for printing on light-colored 100% cotton fabrics. On rare occasions ghost images can appear on contacting surfaces of ink to garment. The use of low-bleed plastisols on these fabrics is not recommended.
