• UV: The property profile of the coating film is given in case of a complete curing.
• Recommended film weight: 3 – 6 g/m²/wet
• The total structure of substrate/printing ink/varnish must be cured sufficiently before processing and should be checked during the process.
• The increase of the slip angle can't be excluded in case of temperature and humidity. Storage tests are necessary.
• A strong absorption on absorbent surfaces can cause an insufficient curing of the UV varnish, sensory problems, mechanical influence as well as rub resistance problems and poor slip properties.
• The printing inks should be suitable for coating. The resistance against alkali, alcohol and solvents should be given in accordance to DIN ISO 2836, former DIN 16524, to exclude any colour change.
• In case of an offline coating we recommend for the primer a drying time of minimum 24 hours, in case of metallic printing inks minimum 48 hours.
• Please test stamping ability and glueing must be tested in practice.
• Do not pollute the varnish with washing water or other varnishes.
