Outdoor road signs reflective ink has good gloss, color transparent transparent series, especially suitable for outdoor signs reflective film (such as AVERY) silk screen printing, printing quality with reflective effect is good, color saturation, good weathering resistance and other characteristics, the ink can also be applied to organic glass, metal and surface treatment of polyethylene, polypropylene, such as base material of the printing.

Use instructions
* dilution
The ink can be used directly, but can also be added to the appropriate amount of GE-180 diluent.
* additive
If you need to improve the sharpness of the edge of the printed pattern, you can use the ge-350 four-color version of the oil, but the maximum usage should not exceed 15%, otherwise it will affect the fastness and lightness of the ink.
In the covering power of color ink to join GE - 26 toning oil, will further enhance the transparency, but if the printing quality needs good light fastness, adding amount must not exceed 15%, to obtain the best scratch resistance (printing plastic bottles) can add 5% of GE - 186 scratch resistance agent.
In order to prevent the unused ink in the hearing, the ink should be sprayed on the surface of a thin layer of GE-195 anti-skinning agent, cover the seal, the next time this ink is still unfinished, need to re-spray the GE-195.
* printing area of unit volume ink.
Under the condition of using a single filament 230 mesh and a sharp scraper, each litre of ink can be printed about 30 square meters. On the ink to add thinner or additives can increase the printing area, but reduce the covering power and outdoor durability, printing plastic containers, need a fine screen, then the printing area will increase, also will speed up the drying speed.
* web version condition
All kinds of filaments apply, both direct and indirect.
* printing advice
The use of a single fibre-silk 200 mesh version will enable the printing to obtain the maximum outdoor weather resistance, and a finer mesh version can be used when the design is finer or more transparent.
* dry
Ink drying 1.5 4 hours of the second printing, if to be stacked, print the best dry 24 hours, in case of adhesion, when printing quality on the drying rack drying temperature had better more than 20 ℃, and the air circulation. Print in drying chamber can accelerate, dry time for 15 to 20 minutes, the temperature shall not exceed 120 ℃, otherwise print gloss will reduce, some of the heavier base material printing quality such as a hard plastic or metal plate need to be stacked, best placed a piece of paper printing quality between the surface to reduce the print surface may scratch, for heavier don't stacked too high printing quality, to prevent possible adhesion, under the condition of temperature is larger or the weather is colder, per gallon (3.785 liters) ink can add 40-50 grams of GE - 188 catalyst to accelerate drying.
