Application Tips
Stir inks before printing
Use consistent, high-tensioned screen mesh and sharp-edged squeegees for the best print results
For best reflective properties, print directly to fabrics. Direct printing allows the ink to sink into the fabric leaving the reflective media on top for brilliant reflectivity
Platinum Reflectives are not recommended on tightly woven fabrics such as nylon or printed over an under base as this will diminish the reflectivity properties.
Proper ink deposit is critical to achieving best reflectivity results. For best care, hand wash or machine wash on cold cycle with the garment inside-out Label garments with suggested wash instructions
