Selectasine Pearl Binder AS is a prepared silver pearlised emulsion and is used direct for screen printing or painting. The emulsion is used to make pearlescent screen inks. Coloured pearl effects may be achieved with the addition of Selectasine Eco pigments. Use up to 6% pigment to binder to create the emulsion, adding a small amount of Selectasine Concentrated Print Paste Thickener will increase the viscosity if required.
Screen printing inks made from Selectasine Pearl Binder are wash-fast once heat set. After drying, heat set at 165°C (330°F) for 4–5 minutes. This can be achieved by ironing on the reverse of the fabric. Adding Selectasine Crosslinker reduces curing time to approximately 1 minute. When using a heat press, curing can be completed in just a few seconds.
Do not allow ink to dry in the screen for longer than necessary, as this may make cleaning more difficult. The water-based formula can be easily washed from screens using water and a mild detergent.
Shelf life is approximately 12 months from the date of purchase. Store in an airtight container in a cool environment between 5°C and 25°C. As some Selectasine products are sensitive to frost, always store above 5°C.
