HOLOGRAPHIC GLITTER PLASTISOL<br />

General Information:<br />

140LF* Holographic Glitter Ink is formulated to produce a dramatic and unique holographic<br />

effect, with high gloss and excellent durability. The ink consists of a special Holographic glitter<br />

flake in an ultra clear base. This product can be printed directly to fabric or printed as a cold peel<br />

transfer.<br />

*(LF) Denotes Lead Free (Contains Less Than 0.025% Lead)<br />

Recommended Substrates:<br />

Print on 100% cotton fabric. Not recommended for dyed polyester fabrics. Bleed Resistance:<br />

Poor<br />

Screen Mesh and Emulsion:<br />

Mesh: 33T (13 threads/cm). Use direct emulsion or a thick Capillary film.<br />

Squeegee: Sharp edge, 65 to 70 durometer. Print with squeegee at 45-degree angle to screen<br />

mesh, off contact. Softer pallet will help increase ink deposit.<br />

Transfer Paper: Use a high gloss, cold peel paper for best results. The result of using<br />

conventional cold peel papers will be loss of some gloss.<br />

Direct Print Fusion Temperature:<br />

Fuse at 325°F to 330°F (163°C to 166°C). The efficiency of the oven and length of heat tunnel<br />

will determine oven dwell time. Due to the reflective properties of glitter and the heavy deposit<br />

of ink, careful evaluation of dryer settings is very important. Failure to fuse the ink properly may<br />

cause cracking, when stretched, poor adhesion and poor wash fastness.<br />

Gel Temperature for Transfer Printing:<br />

Gel at 200°F to 230°F (94°C to 110°C). This represents ink temperature, not dryer settings.<br />

Adjust dryer settings as necessary.<br />

Transfer Application:<br />

Application Temperature: 350°F to 375°F (176°C to 190°C)<br />

Application Time: 12 to 15 Seconds<br />

Application Pressure: Medium (40 to 50 lbs.) PEEL COLD<br />
