Designed for top printing; therefore, scratch and abrasion resistance is high.
PP-series inks must not be used for rotogravure or lamination processes.
Scratch and abrasion resistance can be further enhanced by adding 0.5–1% top print additive to the ink mixture.
To maintain ink durability, it is recommended to use a solvent + varnish mixture during thinning.
Color options for this series are prepared according to Pantone, RAL, or customer sample.
Mix the product thoroughly before use. Do not mix with other series products.
To avoid viscosity and color issues, store inks between 20–25°C.
