Fast T-Jet Non-Textile Pretreatment
Fast T-Jet Non-Textile Pretreatment is designed for use as an inkjet
ink receptive base coat when printing directly onto non-textile
materials such as plastic, metal and wood. For increased durability
of the final print use our Fast T-Jet Post-Treatment on top of the final
print. When using a Fast T-Jet Inkjet-to-Garment Printer and FastINK
Textile ink, you WILL NOT need to change inks when using this
product.
DIRECTIONS :
Dip a fine bristle brush in the Pretreatment, wiping •
off any excess on the side of the bottle. Gently brush
Pretreatment over the surface of the non-textile item,
making sure there are no uneven areas. If Primer was
applied, then the entire Primer treated surface must
be covered with Pretreatment.
The Pretreatment must be applied in a thin even layer to ensure optimal print •
quality.
Use a second brush to apply Pretreatment. After the application is
complete, clean the brush thoroughly with hot water to remove all
residual Pretreatment.
This product may be sprayed on, but the application may not be
as smooth as necessary for good print reproduction. If applying
with an airbrush, spray bottle or paint sprayer, you may need to
dilute the solution with water. If you dilute the Pretreatment, two
coats may be necessary.
Clean up spills and brushes with soap and water immediately after use • .
Allow the Pretreatment to dry thoroughly before applying the Non-Textile •
Pretreatment. Dry time will vary but can take up to one hour or more. To
speed up the drying process, you may use a hair dryer, heat lamp or a heat
gun set on a low temperature setting.
A Heat Press may also be used by setting the non-textile item under the •
heating element. However, DO NOT allow the heating element to touch the
non-textile item.
