Properties
VAPCOAT-LT, VAPCOAT-MT & VAPCOAT-HT are not affected by the usual printing auxiliaries &retain their adhesion and strength over a period of time. However it is difficult to predict definite time as it depends on many factors.
Application for flatbed machine
1.First all throughly clean the blanket & tension roll with Ethyl Acetate
2. Take 2 Kgs of VAPCOAT-HT &make even coating on the blanket with squeeze & run it for 2 hours.
3. Then after take 1 Kg of VAPCOAT-HT & 1 Kg VAPCOAT-MT & mix it properly & apply on the blanket with squeezee & see that coating is done properly. Start washing mschine unit.
4. Before starting printing take 800 grams of VAPCOAT-MT & 200 gram of VAPCOAT-HT & mix it properly. Apply with the squeezee on blanket. The quantity is calculated for 40 - meter blanket size.

When it is found that tackiness is not proper additional coat of VAPCOAT-MT or VAPCOAT-LT mixed with VAPCOAT-HT, in the suitable ratio is applied depending upon the requirement. Make sure that washing unit is running.
Solubility
The VAPCOAT-LT, VAPCOAT-MT & VAPCOAT-HT are soluble in Ethyl Acetate.
Safety
