Stages of Glue (Adhesive) Process
Stage 1:
Prima coat
Stage 2:
Therma coat
Stage 3:
Perma coat
An interval of 4hrs is required for the glue to set and dry. After each glue coat, run the glue cycle for 50
minutes with glue heater ON. After final coat of Perma, printing can be started. The third stage is generally
a repetitive process, repetition depending on the frequency of printing hours. And when the glue coats get
uneven or once in 2-3 months, whole process has to be repeated after removing existing Glue layers.
