The Evolution Silicone Pearlescent Ink Series contains seven colours to produce shimmering special effect prints on smooth fabrics constructed of 100% polyester fabrics. It is especially formulated to be used on lyrcra/spandex due to its excellent elongation. The gloss finish and smooth hand feel produces very pleasing results when printed on any fashionable
garment. A thicker ink stencil with multiple coats of emulsion on the bottom side of the screen, or a print/flash/print technique may be necessary to produce the desired special effects. If printing on sub-dyed fabrics or dark fabrics, it may be necessary to underbase this ink series with either STI7781 Silicone White or STI7711 Silicone Defender Black Dye Blocker.
