SUEDE ADDITIVE
This additive creates a suede look and feel when added to 500/550 series inks. Add 10% to 13% by weight. Print through 80-160 mesh. Available in quarts, gallons, and 5 gallon containers.

L-SA Suede Additive



LOW CURE ADDITIVE
This additive reduces the curing temperature of all Excalibur direct print inks. A simple addition of 5% - 6% Low Cure Additive will reduce curing temperatures to as low as 265°F. Available in quarts, gallons, and 5 gallon containers.

L-LCA Low Cure Additive

NYLON BONDING AGENT
Strengthens adhesion of Plastisol inks to nylon.
Nylon bonding agents are additives which, when mixed with plastisol colors, provide adhesion to water proofed nylon jackets and other garments. Simply add 10-15% to the plastisol (by weight).

For more effective bonding on more highly water-proofed garments, use 15%:

To one quart white, add 9 oz. Bonding Agent
To one quart color, add 6 oz. Bonding Agent

Less than 10% may prevent adhesion or abrasion resistance. More than 15% X100 Bonding Agent may diminish opacity and shorten shelf life. Working life for 15% mixture is 2 to 4 hours
.
Note: When using X100 Bonding Agent, it is advised to wear gloves, protective clothing, and eye protection. Use with adequate ventilation. Avoid contact with skin and eyes.

*Always test on actual substrate before printing.

LOW BLEED ADDITIVE
Greatly improves the bleed resistance of Excalibur direct print inks. Add 5% LBA to direct print inks by weight. Available in quarts, gallons and 5 gallon drums.

L-LBA Soft Hand Base


HIGH STRETCH ADDITIVE

501 CURABLE REDUCER
501 is a perfectly balanced reducer that can be used in virtually any quantity. It will not affect the cure ability of the ink. It can be used to achieve a softer hand. It is recommended for use in most direct print plastisols, including 500, 550, and 600 Series Inks. Note: Opacity may be reduced with the addition of 501 reducer. Available in quarts and gallons and five gallon containers.

L501 Curable Reducer



502 VISCOSITY REDUCER
For a softer hand, limited amounts of 502 reducer may be used to achieve the desired consistency. Limited amounts of 501 reducer will duplicate the look and feel of a water based print. It will remain an integral component of the cured design. Gelation and fusion temperature of the base plastisol will change with the addition of 502 reducer. Use of 502 reducer may increase curing time. Use a maximum of 3% to 5% Available in quarts and gallons and five gallon containers.
