Painting and Screen Printing
KÖMATEX has a superior surface for screen printing. This method will give outstanding results with a crisp, clear, colorful finish. Paints also can be used to achieve similar results. No primers are required when using either method. UV, solvent-based and acrylic inks and paints can be used with KÖMATEX to gain great results. To get proper adhesion, it is important that the sheets are clean and free of all dust, oils and grease before printing or painting. Isopropyl alcohol removes most foreign objects. Please consult your local distributor or ink manufacturer to fain the best inks and paints to use with KÖMATEX.
