Description
EH9072 NPT SF2 Cotton White is an easy printing opaque white resulting in excellent coverage on dark garments. The low tack formula allows printing through finer mesh counts without the need for a viscosity modifier. Use as an underlay where good opacity is needed or as a stand-alone white.
Features
• Economical, high performance white for 100% Cotton.
• Creamy, short body plastisol for easy printing.
• Low tack formula for fast shear action.
• Formulated as a Non-phthalate product
• Great opacity with quick flash.
• Low hot tack does not need a cool down station.
• Will not cause *ghost on 100% cotton.
Application
Print EH NPT SF2 Cotton White straight from the container through mesh ranging from 86 to 230 mc in (34 to 90 mc cm) without modification of the viscosity. The tack free formulation allows increased coverage; therefore use finer mesh counts for the softest hand and good opacity.
Special Recommendations
Claira Colors™, bases, modifiers and additives should be mixed in clean vessels using clean mixer blades and utensils. Any contamination from other ink sources or non approved additives could make Claira Colors™ test positive for the restricted phthalates.
• Do not dry clean, bleach, or iron the printed image.
