User Instructions

It is supplied ready to use, in automatic plates processors, immersion trays and manually. Plate´s processors application: Use it directly, or diluted 1:1 with water.

When used manually, extend it over the plate´s surface, as evenly as possible, to avoid any possible excessive accumulation over the printing area.

Recommendations

  • Avoid gum buildup in image areas.
  • Periodic cleaning on the applicator gum is advisable.
