Opportunity is missed by most people because it is dressed in overalls and looks like work. - Thomas Edison
I saw the ad from SourceOne on the forum banner and thought about trying it.Wondering because it is Formaldehyde free, does it still have that rotten egg smell?I'm home based and that smell is a game changer, if it is a smell free, or at least very low smell, I would love to try it.Something like this would help me a bit with underbasing or printing on darker colors.TIA
Thanks Rob.I'll have to check if someone has it locally.

The NF activator as mentioned has shipping restrictions. You can use either of the following with Plascharge:Magna Activator M (MCG941K2) – using this will maintain the formaldehyde-free properties of Plascharge. However, shipping restrictions limit many printers from cost effectively obtaining the product. (MagnaColours holds a global patent in this technology – no other discharge products in the market are formaldehyde-free.)If you do not require formaldehyde-free, Magna Activator AB (MCWX198K1) or any brand ZFS activator can be used with no shipping restrictions.Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk 2
Do both activators have the same curing characteristics and/or requirements?I find that in the past, my projects using Wilflex Plascharge with the NF were successful with less dryer than suggested that I would need for true waterbase and discharge inks.
