Finnesse?

Post by ROADSIDE »

I have a large bucket of Fineness in my shop.... I believe WILFLEX makes it. Can someone tell me what it is used for?
I have never used it since I bought this shop.
.... I can give you my opinion but I can't tell you if it's right or not.

It's a plastisol additive: http://www.polyone.com/downloads/pdfs/p ... itives.pdf


FINESSE 10150FNS: A plastisol additive designed to
soften and extend general purpose and specialty Wilflex
inks. Additions of 10-20% may be used to improve
printability and soften hand. Additions greater than 20%
will reduce opacity. Pre-test the product to ensure that
the desired characteristics are present before a
production run.

Great product! Gives ink softer hand and eliminates buildup. This should be in every textile screenprinters shop.

Another benefit that has this product, is that when you have problems of fibrillation, in light fabrics colors on which you stamp directly. You can apply a layer under in a 160 mesh , and them you stamp all the colors without flash and the result on the rubbing and to the wash are incredible.
