M2 Plastisol Ink Mixing System
 
Description The M2 ink mixing system is an economical, high performance low-tack plastisol color mixing system for 100% cotton light or dark fabrics. It also works great with the use of a low bleed underlay white when printed on dark, 50/50 polyester/cotton blends. All 19 primary ink colors are PANTONE® licensed and our handy 16-page Coloring Book is available for mixing other PANTONE® colors. By using the M2 system, you’ll notice a reduction in ink costs and an increase in production speeds.
           
               
    Applications Print directly onto 100% cotton white, light and dark fabrics. Apply a low bleed white underlay when printing on 50/50 polyester/cotton blends, flash dry, then print M2 colors on top. Mix desired PANTONE® formulas by weight, then print. For cost savings, extend colors as much as 30% when printing on white fabrics.

Special Notes Plastisols are thermoplastic, requiring heat for fusion. Test print an area of the fabric for crock fastness. If the color rubs off on a white cloth, adjust oven temperatures and/or dwell time until the cloth wipes clean. Stir plastisol prior to printing. Do not dry clean. Do not use bleach. See technical data sheet for more complete information.
