When printing plastisol onto a discharge underbase do you flash the base first our do you print it all wet on wet?
Hey Rockers,
When using a discharge underbase ? Do you 50% white plasti / 50% dc base and 4% activator ? Thinking of doing a run like this for a 6 color plasti job.
I've suggested to INKed that this may not be the best thread for his question and to start a new thread, but, let me weigh in on this as I interpret his question as a recipe for disaster.
INKed, are you actually thinking of mixing these ingredients together? Except for some hybrid systems which use a special discharge base, these inks will not mix. Waterbased inks and plastisol don't play well together. As some of the answers in this thread tell you, even used separately, the results are better when the dc base is at least partially cured before inviting plastisol to the party.
