1 Printing tips:Hot melt glue XG-360R-2X print for 4-6 times

When printing glue to use cyclohexanone to liquid the glue,mixing ratio 10%.This type of glue easy to be thick and mesh printing.

Silicone ink XG-866A-2Y 100G

Catalyst XG-866B-2 2-5 G 2-5% Thinner XG-128AH 10-20G 10-20%

Hot melt glue with solvent chemicals so will get silicone ink not easy or can not dry ,so for first 2 times clear silicone have to mix with 5% catalyst.More catalyst can get silicone dry fast also the print time will be short,so have to mix small quantity silicone with catalyst to get no waste.After two layers clear silicone if need to print more times then 2% catalyst is ok.

Flash by 100 to120 degree.

if needed for high density stickers,if need more high density then print more times clear.
