Coating Information
WARNING:
Use only coatings that do not build up an explosive atmosphere when being heated
under a UV/IR Dryer. (For example: “Flammable Limit” mentioned in the MSDS sheet as “Not
Usable”).
• The most important thing you need to know about coating is, in most cases, MORE IS NOT
BETTER. With the exception of absorbent paper and ink, more coating is not an improvement
• More coating adds weight and stiffness to your product, which is undesirable in most cases and
will cost you more money
• Coating, like paint, can come in a variety of brands and qualities. It is very important that you
use a good quality coating like
Uninet
UV/Aqueous Coating
• Always shake the coating well before use
• Coating can separate due to excessive heat and cold. It should be stored in a climate-controlled
area
•
Uninet
recommends storing & using your coatings at a temperature between 70°- 90° F (21°-
32° C). Temperatures lower than 70° F (21° C) could cause the coating to thicken, resulting in a
textured appearance.
• If left untouched for any period of time it will need to be re-mixed prior to use
• You can mix coatings from the same manufacturer if they are the same type i.e. mix gloss with
gloss
• NEVER mix coatings from different manufacturers or of different types
