Screen Printing Retarder

Description

Screen Printing Retarder, It is a specially formulated additive that prevents the ink from drying too quickly on the screen and under the squeegee during printing, thus providing a longer working time. It improves print quality, especially in hot environments, high-volume printing, and detailed work, by preventing the ink from freezing.

The retarder preserves the fluidity of the ink, preventing problems that may occur during printing. fuzzing, hole clogging, drying on the sieve, squeegee marks, and surface irregularities. This minimizes problems such as these. Thus, you achieve cleaner, clearer, and more controlled printing.
