Athletic Screen Printing Inks--Polystretch Plus Series

Polystretch Plus
One Stroke Inks
Description
Polystretch Plus is our most stretchable plastisol ink, perfect for track and wrestling singlets. When properly
cured, the Polystretch Plus inks will stretch many times its own length. These prints are long-lasting and
durable. No additives are needed for adhesion to any of these untreated polyester/lycra or polyester/
spandex blends.
Printable Fabrics
Light, medium, and dark polyester/lycra or
polyester/spandex blends. Adding a nylon
catalyst is not recommended. This will prevent the
ink from stretching well.
Screen Mesh
86 to 110 monofilament screen mesh is
recommended depending on the detail of the art
work, color of the ink, and color of the garment.
Squeegees
60, 70, and 80 single durometer rubber is
recommended for most applications.
Flash Time & Temperature
Flash for 5 to 6 seconds with a standard infrared
unit. Excessive flash time or temperature is not
recommended. This may cause dye migration or
over-print adhesion difficulty.
Curing
The entire ink film must reach 320 degrees
Fahrenheit. Every conveyor dryer will operate
differently due to the large number of variables.
Under-cured garments will likely exhibit cracking
or flaking after washing.
Reducers
All of the inks we manufacture are ready-to-print. If
reducing is required, please add Curable Reducer,
Visco Minus, or Athletic Reducer (5% maximum).
Cleaning
We distribute numerous cleaners for our plastisol
inks. These cleaners include: PW4, IR4, Franmar
Chemicals, Screen Wash, and Citrus Green.
Available Colors
A full selection of colors, white, and custom colors
are available. Provide a Pantone number, ink
swatch, or material sample for matching.
Important Note
Always perform a pretest print and test cure conditions on the fabric to be printed to establish the best
results. Stir inks vigorously before each use. Viscosity may need adjusting for best results. If there is ever a
question about a print job, call us at 1-800-942-4447. We are always happy to help!
