CRP Ink Series

A long-term multi-purpose outdoor ink designed to print on a wide range of substrates. GP-0000 Series ink eliminates the need for carrying a large inventory of different types of ink. Ideal for P.O.P. and general display applications where a gloss finish, scuff resistant surface are required. 

Substrates PAPER, CARD, WOOD, POLYSTYRENE, VINYLS (PVC), ABS, ACRYLICS, TOP COATED POLYESTER, TYVE.

Thinning: May be used straight from the can but it is HIGHLY recommended to thin 5 - 15% by weight with GP-1800 Thinner. Substitute GP-1800 Thinner with GP-1820 Slow Thinner/Retarder to improve screen stability. For maximum lightfastness or outdoor durability little or no thinning is recommended.

Additives: GP-1700 Clear should only be used to increase transparency of colors. However, this will reduce the durability and lightfastness of the color. To improve scuff resistance add up to 10% GP-1860 Anti-Scuff Agent. Use GP-1350 Overprint Clear to increase scuff resistance or to provide a uniform gloss level to a GP-0000 ink ilm. Add 5% to 10% of DC-393 Gel Retarder to thinned ink to maintain screen stability. Use a small amount of GP-1730 Process Clear to improve print quality if required. 

Wash-Up: GP-1800 Thinner, GP-1840 Wash-Up
