Recommended Printing Conditions and Precautions
- Please apply the ink as thickly as possible, because a thickly applied ink becomes luminescent more effectively.
- The ink, when not BL-luminescent, is almost transparent. The color materials left on the plate, blanket, roller, or any other thing may come out in the Hidetec Color Ink when printing. Please wash out such color materials carefully before starting the printing.
- This ink becomes luminescent when the BL luminescent pigment in it reacts to the light of Black Light. There is a variety of paper that reacts to Black Light among printing paper (especially coated paper). Please confirm the paper before selection.
- The ink has a very weak weather resistance. Please be careful for the application.
