FEATURES

The 900 Series Nylon Ink must be mixed with the 900 Catalyst before printing on Nylon. Catalyst is available in 2-ounce, 8-ounce, and 1-gallon containers and must be purchased separately.

The catalyst helps the ink adhere better to hard-to-print fabrics such as nylon.  However, there are also other uses, such as adding a catalyst to our 3820 Flock Adhesive to promote better adhesion of the flocking fibers.

APPLICATION

The catalyst should be thoroughly mixed into the ink to the following proportions:

By volume = 16 parts ink to 1 part catalyst
By weight = 20 parts ink to 1 part catalyst

1 ounce of catalyst to 1 pint of ink
2 ounces of catalyst to 1 quart of ink
8 ounces of catalyst to 1 gallon of ink

Ink may be used immediately after mixing. Do not mix more ink than is needed for a job. Do not under-catalyze the ink. Pot life of mixed ink is 4 to 8 hours. Over-catalyzation will shorten the pot life.

If printing on cotton, it is not necessary to catalyze the ink. Print it as you would a normal direct print plastisol ink.
