Application & Storage Information
HOW TO USE
SCREEN MESH AND
EMULSION
Use 199LF as a low bleed base for other colors to be
printed over instead of white. This hides any misregistration
issues from art, screens or press.
Print 199LF First Down Clear right from the container
without modification. Print and “flash” 199LF just as
you would a base white. You can also print 199LF wet
just before a low bleed white and then flash. The
199LF used this way will “wet trap” the shirt fibers down
which allows for a smoother surface for the base white.
199LF LB First Down Clear is a low bleed product, not
a non-bleed product. Preprint and test all fabrics for
possible dye migration prior to a production run.
