The screen printing inks, in its variant of water-based textile inks, come in containers of 1Kg.
It is recommended to work with a sufficient amount of textile ink on the screen to be able to remove and cover the design, and thus prevent it from drying quickly on the mesh.
It is advisable to incorporate 10 to 15% of retarder per 1kg of water-based inks.

For manual drying we recommend letting it air dry for 8 days. If we have a drying tunnel, the curing of the ink must be between 120ºC and 140ºC for 4 or 5 minutes. Polymerized in this way, it acquires good resistance to dry cleaning. In the transfer plate, washing tests must be carried out.

It is recommended to iron the print after curing the inks for a better finish.

Textile inks will be perfect for working on 43-wire screens, but you can also work with screens without problems from 34 to 55 threads.
