Why the Nylobond? Have you had an adhesion problem otherwise?

The Nylobond will help with cross linking at the lower dryer temp. Scott Xenon white cures at 290-300 degrees.
Frog:
well, yes, that is an established "off label" use, but no mention was made of also adding nylobond to the top colors as well, so I'm not completely sure of his reason.
Do you typically see folks adding this to underbase only?
I know some disagree, but I have always felt that nylobond decreases suppleness a bit and would rather add something like this. http://www.iccink.com/pdfs/Low%20Cure%20Additive%20Flyer%20sm.pdf
At 290-300 cure, your ink seems to have this covered.
shirtz:
Thanks for the response.We ran the red shirts through the dryer without modifing the temp. That explains why nobody wanted to catch them,
they were smokin hot.
