Ink adjustment:
If cleaning is carried out with automatic screen washing systems, we recommend prior to printing an additional manual cleaning with a fresh cleaner not having had any contact with ink residues containing silicone.
Care should be taken with some adhesive tapes, used to protect the outer areas of the print region, as the release agent of the tape may be silicone.
Drying:
Parallel to physical drying, i. e. the evaporation of the solvents used, the actual hardening of the ink film is caused by the chemical cross-linking reaction between ink and hardener.
The standard values concerning progressive cross-linking reactions (hardening) of the ink film (thickness 5-12 µ) are as follows:
| touch-dry | 20 °C | 30 min |
| overprintable | 20 °C | 60 min |
| final hardness | 20 °C | 6 Tage |
| 140 °C | 30 min |
For multi-colour printing, please note that the previously printed ink films should not be entirely cured before the consecutive ink film is printed on it. Only after all ink films have been applied, they should be baked.

For silicone-free products it is important to use only thoroughly cleaned stencils, squeegees, ink pumps, tubes (in the case of an automatic ink supply), and injectors for the manual ink filling of the stencil, etc.
If cleaning is carried out with automatic screen washing systems, we recommend prior to printing an additional manual cleaning with a fresh cleaner not having had any contact with ink residues containing silicone.
Care should be taken with some adhesive tapes, used to protect the outer areas of the print region, as the release agent of the tape may be silicone.Drying:

For multi-colour printing, please note that the previously printed ink films should not be entirely cured before the consecutive ink film is printed on it. Only after all ink films have been applied, they should be baked.Printing parameters:
All types of commercially available polyester fabrics and solvent-resistant stencils can be used. For a good opacity on coloured substrates, we recommend a mesh count between 68-64 and 90-48, for printing fine details 100-40 to 120-34. A suitable mesh count for thin ink films is 165-27.
