720 SOFTHAND CLEAR BASE<br />

720LF Softhand can be added to 700 Series,<br />

Multipurpose, 1100 Series, 7000 Series and 800 Series<br />

inks for improved hand, cost and printability. 720LF is<br />

very clear and is highly recommended for extending<br />

any process color, especially the Pro-Brite Process<br />

Colors.<br />

For a softer hand, add approximately 10% to 20%, by<br />

volume, of 720LF Softhand Clear. More may be added,<br />

if necessary, without affecting the cure or fusing of the<br />

mixed ink. The more Softhand added, the less opaque<br />

the mixed ink will be.<br />

Using the 720LF Softhand in 800 Series inks to print on<br />

light colored fabrics greatly lowers the cost of the<br />

mixed ink. Adding 720LF Softhand to 800 Series inks<br />

in amounts higher than 20%, by volume, may shift<br />

mixed Pantone colors.<br />

NOTE: The addition of 720LF Softhand Clear reduces<br />

the bleed resistance of low bleed inks.<br />

325°F (163°C) entire ink film. Fusion temperature may<br />

vary, depending on which inks 720LF Softhand is mixed<br />

into.<br />

Since plastisols do not air dry, they must be fused with<br />

an appropriate heat source in order to achieve<br />

durability. The optimum time/temperature cycle will<br />

vary with the amount of ink deposited, fabric and the<br />

type of heat source used. Plastisols actually achieve<br />

the proper fusion point as soon as the innermost<br />

section of the ink film reaches the prescribed<br />

temperature. Test dryer temperatures before a<br />

production run. Wash test printed product before<br />

production run.<br />

Environmentally friendly plastisol screen wash or<br />

mineral spirits.<br />

Keep inks indoor and store in a cool area. Recommend<br />

storage at 65°F to 90°F (18°C to 32°C). Avoid storage<br />

in direct sunlight or in extreme temperature conditions.<br />
