Lancer Group’s STI7702 Silicone Direct Print Crystal Clear Gloss is a very thick silicone rubber clear that simulates gel decorations when overprinted on other silicone ink colours. Finished prints made with clear will have a thick, extremely high gloss or wet look with rounded edges. It also produces excellent results when printing a tone-on-tone effect for the decoration. When printing on dark colours, sub-dyed fabrics or fabrics known to migrate, all colours must be underbased with STI7581 White and backed with STI7711 Defender Black Dye Blocker. A print/flash/print technique may be necessary a achieve desired thickness. Multiple coatings of direct emulsion or capillary films that produce thicker stencils may also be necessary to achieve desired effect. Note: This ink must be catalyzed prior to printing.
